got some new kuiu attack pants and wanted to comment on quality. Horrible imo! Had tears and snags after two days of hunting in sage and light oak brush and no water repellency whatsoever like they claim.

When you find an articulating cut, four way stretch pant that will bust brush with Carhartt's, I'm all in.

I still like my attack and guide pants but I didn't have unrealistic expectations for them. They're a mess with various snags, still, IMO, there's nothing more comfy.

I do 95% of my hunting in Carharts unless I'm archery hunting. That said, the attack pants are amazing for what they are...

I had a good hunt in my Attack pants. I liked the vents, which surprised me. I had tried another brand with the same vents, they were next to useless.
Mine showed some very minor snagging, but the water resistance was above average IMHO. I stayed dry, and shed water in the direct rain for about an hour before I noticed any seepage.

I failed to touch on that in my reply above but I agree - above average water resistance and quick drying.

First Lite Kanab 2.0's and Mountain Hardwear Pieros. Seems hiking and hunting are a lot alike.
