First, let me start by saying that Guidefitter did a wonderful job handling my order and getting me the Corrugate Guide Pant from First Lite as soon as possible. The pants themselves are very light and comfortable. They wick water and seem to be holding up very well, and they're even water resistant. I have worn these pants on and off for about 3 months now, and they are great in the field. They are wonderful for warmer-weather activities, and with an extra layer underneath, they hold up great in colder conditions. I measured at 39 inches and followed the size chart, which recommended an extra large. And then I ordered an extra large, but wish now I hadn't. Due to no fault of First Lite, the pants are beginning to be a little too big (I've been slimming down for the upcoming seasons). They are made out of a very stretchy material. The fit is like a straight-leg jean, which I enjoy, but they are loose enough to slide over boots. There are 7 pockets if I remember correctly, 3 with zippers, so there is plenty of storage room for gear, cell phones, GPS, food, etc. I would recommend these pants for an early season hunt, casual wear, or even late-season layered.
