Tough cargo pants

[sandbender]

I've just recieved a pair of SigTac tactical pants from Sig Arms, these are marketed in the UK by Krav Maga NorthWest.

£39.99 gets you a very tough pair of trousers, lots of pockets and for the canoeist, padded knees!

On a friends advice that they were sized to be 'snug' I ordered the next waist size up and find that this is the perfect fit.

Too short for me. The 5.11 tactical pants are a good choice too. And for the canoeists you add the knee pads Also they now do quick drying nylon ones.

Sand,

Those are really nice pants! They look almost like my OD CF (Canadian Forces) combat trousers.

How thick of cotton are they? Thicker than denim (blue jeans) or more along the lines of army trousers?

98% cotton? They are trying to kill you.

Alright for the urban warriour but not the material for the bush.

Why? Because of the cooling properties of cotton? That can be useful sometimes!

Yeah, but that lovable cooling property is no good in the winter.

In winter you can make like Bambodoggy and just wear shorts...

Thiner than jean material however all the seams and joins are very sturdily put together and with the padding, the knee area is thicker than jean material.
