Default New Pants

Can anyone out there please help me out? I am a rather large man who is in need of some new pants, both vented and non-vented. Can anyone tell me which brand has the velcro side adjustment? I have a pair now without them and after a while, my pants slide down even though I have tightened them as far as they go. Any advice would be helpful.

I have a pair of 2005 Moose M1 pants with velcro on the sides. Fit me great buy I'm only a 34" waist. It looks like the 2010 has it too.

Default Klim

Klim pants have the velcro on the side. Another great thing is the quality there is not another company that compares. Also the are plain and simple no wild graphics or trible colors.

I've been considering tha Klim gear too. I like plain and simple, and not really a fan of the new M1 designs. My only issue with the Klim OTB pant is they are too long, but haven't tried them on to know how bad it is with boots on.

I'll 2nd (3rd) the Klim pants. I have 2 pairs of the OTB style

I have read complaints of those, um, shoter inseam people who say the Klim OTB pants being to long however they do also make the regular inside the boot style pants now as well. The different venting options are very nice also. Great stuff.

Are you referring to in-the-boot pant? Yes they do. Jim (sen480) wore them all year last year and looks like great stuff.

I use suspenders. I have a 33 waist and all my pants
creep down. Must be the way my hips are shaped...

I used the heavy duty clip type last year,
but i'm going to go to buttons this year because the clips
slip off occasionally.
