It's hard to find real outdoorsman's (or outdoors womens') khakis these days. Every time I order pants from a once-reputable catalog of outdoors gear I end up with a pair of pre-washed, lightweight  pants more suitable for the coffeehouse than the woods. These are different. 5.11 got started as a supplier of uniform clothing for law enforcement, but  they're also popular with hunters, fishermen, naturalists and others. These pants are super lightweight, but rip and abrasion resistant, and the teflon coating helps keep them from looking like the pants you keep in the garage. There are plenty of pockets where you can keep your cell phone, pocket knife, power bars and everything else you like to keep at hand when you stroll into the woods.
