Can anyone make a recommendation?

I wore out a pair of Duralite cargo pants from Drake Waterfowl this year. I like the material but the fit on them (the "turkey" version from Ol' Tom is the same way) leaves alot to be desired.

I'm really kicking myself for not buying a few pairs of Treklite pants a few years ago when they were available in Bottomland.

Cotton mill from mossy oak would be my pic for overall bang for the buck.  Not super light, but it ain't to hot either

I do not recommend the Ol Tom pants. The pockets are so small a cell phone will barely fit in them and briars snag them terribly. Also, the camo is a yellowish version of bottomland and looks more like a cheetah print pattern to me. My son laughs at me when I wear them saying I am wearing my wifes pants. lol

Mossy Store had some of the light weight rip stop earlier this year.  Sold out I think but they are supposed to have more in mid summer or so they said.  Might check there.

One of my personal current interests is nest predators and how a majority of hunters, where legal bait to the extent of chumming coons.  However once they get the predators concentrated they don't control them.

I'd try the 10x, don't have any personally but will soon. . . brother has a pair and speaks highly of them. Everything I have I wouldn't recommend or they no longer make.  :angry9:

Appreciate the suggestions, but these are all mostly cotton materials. This is what I'm trying to stay away from. I have a pair of the Browning Wasatch and they are super for when it's below 50, but much warmer than that and they are almost unbearable.

On the contrary, the all cotton pants are cooler than the polyester Dura Lite ones.

I bought a pair of the 10x brand this spring and I really like them. They are rip stop polyester which can take some getting used to. The pocket layout is excellent and they're comfortable.
