I'll be travelling through south east asia for a few months. I expect to wear shorts most of the time, but wanted one pair of pants in case I need to avoid bugs, etc.

So far I've heard of the Western Rise Evo. Anything else I should consider?

March 5, 2025 - More replies More replies ... Don't overthinking it. Cotton chinos or linen pants (wrinkles and all!) are your best bet. Someone else mentioned lightweight wool, which is also a good choice. If it's hot out, you're going to be hot regardless of the pants you're wearing.

I'm looking for a pair of work pants that are breathable and have lots of pockets/flexibility.

Also long sleeve or short sleeves underneath your polo? Favorite socks? Shoes? I do mostly residential so it's a lot of mud, dirt, kneeling. Etc. I'm working in a hot and humid summer in the Midwest and I need some reliable work wear.

The dickies canvas pants are my favorite but the thinner more dress style canvas pants are great for warmer weather too.

r/CampingGear on Reddit: Durable pants for hot weather
April 22, 2020 -

I work outside a fair amount, and often need to kneel on rough surfaces, or squeeze past metal boxes that sometimes have sharp corners/burrs. I also need something that looks decent, as I don't always know what my day will hold.

Over the past few years I've been wearing pants like Columbia's ROC and Eddie Bauer's mountain pants (they both have outlet stores near me). I really like their fit and look, and they last for a few years (this post was inspired by a knee finally giving out). However, they are cotton and less ideal in hot weather.

When I did a lot of hiking as a Boy Scout, the nylon pants that were good for heat were really thin, and I don't expect they'd resist abrasion well. Ones with ripstop had an obvious pattern that doesn't look nice either.

Now I see options like EB's Guide's day off, which is only 70% cotton and might do the trick. Or the Guide Pro work pants which are thicker nylon so sound durable, but maybe no better to sweat in. Or would the regular Guide Pro pants be durable enough?

Anyone have advice or suggestions? I am open to other brands, just happened to buy those two often in the past.

I live in the PNW where it doesn't get that hot that often but when it does it can get insanely hot (had to work in full exposure during the heat dome Seattle got a few years ago and that was fucking gnarly), so I can't really vouch for durability just comfort. I will rank my recommendations on how severe of swampass I got while wearing said pants, 1 being the least swamp ass, 10 being "I'm breaking out the cornstarch" levels of swamp ass- otherwise known as the SAP system. Truwerk T1 Werkpant- I still get swamp ass during the hottest parts of the day but it was definitely manageable, 4/10 SAP. Carhartt Force Sun defender- breathable and comfortable, but not as much as the Truwerk T1 pants. Very nice on a breezy day though. 5/10 SAP. Wrangler Riggs Workwear- Was gifted these, they are definitely comfortable pants, but fit a little too tight for me when it's hot and when it's really hot they gave me the worst swamp ass. Great for when it's under 85 but over that and they're not so great. 7/10 SAP. Cheap shitty thin banana Republic pants that I sewed canvas patches onto the knees, upper thighs, and ass- Had a super comfortable and lightweight pair of cheapo banana Republic pants I got a long time ago that I'd wear in hot weather when I wasn't working because of how breathable they were. I decided to sew some thick canvas onto the areas that would get work out the quickest and they lasted me a couple summers of hard work. 2/10 SAP, but had to customize an existing pair of pants and without the customization they would have gotten destroyed in a couple weeks.

Hello!

Job is consulting. I'm in desperate need of new work clothing for the field. Its a little hard as a women to find good work pants and shirts that aren't ill-fitting. It will be very hot this summer so I kind of want something breathable. I've been wearing stuff from academy but the briar and such are literally a pain in my rear whenever I wear those clothes lol. Can anyone reccomend me any brands or ideas of where to get good field stuff for women (and hopefully reasonably priced?)

I'm looking for the absolute warmest pants you have ever worn before. I'm talking straight up ovens for pants. Some sort of bottom article of clothing that nukes your legs. I've seen fleece lined stuff before but i'm wondering if anyone has found any niche clothing items meant for extreme cold that doesn't count as mountaineering gear.
