First Lite, Sitka, Kuiu pants

[troyspinetar]

Looking for opinions on First Lite pants, Sitka, or Kuiu. I’m leaning towards First Lite Obsidian because they offer Tall length. I want an all season set up that can be worn in August and September but then can layer up and be worn in the winter as well.
Any opinions for anyone’s experience is appreciated.

The obsidians are super comfy and I loved mine but they made it through a season and then were pretty much shredded. I really like first lite guide pants though. Liked my kuiu attack and guide pants as well. Cant speak for sitka.

The FL guide pants and pranta zions are my go tos.

All those brands/models are good for different situations though, doubt you'll be disappointed in whichever you decide

All good brands, but I wouldn't pick the Obsidians strictly off durability and no hips vents for this time of year. The Sitka Mountain Pants would be choice if I didn't want vents. The Kuiu Attacks are the best overall pant made these days if a guy is just looking to buy a universal pair.

I personally think the obsidean pant sucks.. i had a pair and followed the wash instructions took it out and it was extremely fuzzy.. i put it on and they went 3 inches above my boot.. emailed first lite and got them exchanged... so i bear Hunt one day with the new pair and they are completely shredded and the zipper on the crotch is blowing out. They look and feel great out of the wrapping paper but absolutely horrible quality

I did also have a pair of Kuiu attack pants and wore them a full season. Best pants I’ve ever owned.  For some reason i sold and got obsidians (bad decision) Also have been testing a pair of Kuiu tiburon pants. Only 2 days in field but great so far

Attacks.  You won't be disappointed.

Kuiu tiburon (sp?) or attack are the $hit

I had attack pants and sold them for the pro pants.  I prefer the padded knees.  Both are awesome pants.

Attacks would be my choice for use from sept-november.

Another recommendation for the attack pants here & the Kutana pants seem pretty good too.

I believe Kuiu is having a sale this Labor day

Attacks for sure & pro if you want knee pads & a touch more durability.

Im usually a sitka guy, but really liking my Stone Glacier De Havilland pant thus far.

Any of you KUIU guy have a coupon code.  I'm looking to pick up some Outer layers and a pack.
