It's actually not a bad concept. I used to cut off the hem of my work pants to a little below the tops of my 14" lineman's boots. It helps in a few ways; you don't pick up extra weight while walking through mud, snow or wet grass/brush, it helps avoid tripping you up on snags, keeps your pants from getting ripped to shreds on those same snags and it is a lot quieter. Hems rubbing together can be a huge noisemaker in the woods. They'd be especially useful with a pair of good, quiet gaiters. Good review.
Thanks Dan. You make some good points there as well. I appreciate the input! Even thought they are very different than what we are all used to, I'm intrigued to see how I like them over the course of a hunting season. Stay tuned for that review after some in-the-field use! Thanks for watching.
Hey there! I Haven't yet tried others personally, but some of our crew has the First Lite Uncompahgre and really likes them. I definitely need to do some more testing on puffy pants though! Thanks for watching!
I guess one gripe on reviewers had with the fl pants was that it has Velcro to adjust the waist. The under armor has belt loops. I don’t own ether so I can’t say, and then there are the black ovis and kuiu
Hey Alice, my wife said to tell you she wants her capri pants back, HAHA, j/k man. it is an interested, all be it odd concept. I can see how they would work well with a good pair of gaiters.

Awesome content! Subbed!
Thanks so much for the sub and feedback! Appreciate it!
Have you tried other brands of puffy pants like the UA Storm Ridge Reaper Alpine Ops Pants or fl uncomphadre pants?
