Stretchy Hunting Pants

So, I recently bought some khakis from Target....Wrangler ATG pants (I think they're intended to be like lightweight hiking/leisure pants.)  They're 5-pocket, like a jean, but they're really lightweight, breathable and stretchy.  They're also not real baggy...not "skinny" by any means, but not baggy at all, which is a problem with a lot of hunting pants.  They are, far and away, the most comfortable pants I've ever worn.

Anyway, it got me to thinking, does anyone make any camo hunting pants like this?  If Wrangler would offer these in camo, they'd be the ultimate mid/late-season turkey hunting pants.

Walmart had some stretchy mossy Oak camo cargo pants in their camo clearance at my local store. Got a pair to try this year. They look like they'll eitherbs  the most comfortable pants ever or possibly the worst idea ever if they don't breathe as intended.

I also discovered the miracle of "flex fit" wrangler jeans & khakis (my wife says women have known about this for 10 yrs...lol). 2% spandex is awesome.

Flex fit camo would be great. I've worn a Cabela's pant with a flex waist that are very comfortable.

If anyone has experience with the Nomad Bloodtrail Pants, I'd like to hear about them, specifically...

I wish duluth went back to making some hunting stuff. Their flex fit firehose pants are the stuff.

If I put on anything stretchy I would look like a hippo in pantyhose!

Wrangler does make a woodland camo pants that are 88/12 nylon or close to that.  I killed two turkeys wearing them last year. I'm so frustrated with the pants options I've looked at.  My favorite pants are a Kuhl Renegades and Prana Zions. I would pay serious money for some bottomland renegades!  I haven't tried the ol Tom pants yet but they might be good.

No, I'm afraid they will show that I am half Irish.

When its hot and i am not brush busting I wear Prana stretch Zion pant. I just bought them in olive drab and the turkeys don't seem to mind!

Most comfortable pants I own, I have 4 pairs that I wear casually. As I said they are not for brush busting!

I just wish they would make underwear that would stay up on my BUTT...

Not cheap but First Lite Corrugate guide pants are awesome pants for turkey hunting. Light, durable, breatheable and 4 way stretch and the best camo pattern on the market. Ive had green briars poke through them on occasion but they didnt leave any tears or thread pulls.

Gentleman, we have officially run completely out of things to talk about. It's obvious we all have cabin fever with turkey season so close. We've gone from turkey subjects to talking about bait, reaping, spandex pants, camo leggings, and finally; underwear that won't ride down. Strange day indeed.
