Pant style and features are fantastic. These pants are what I have been searching for. The reason for only 4 stars is the length. I wasnt blessed with norse genetics so I'm on the shorter side. These pants fit great everywhere...but the length. If Sitka comes out with a short inseam I'll be the first in line to buy more. Until then...its a trip to the tailor.

From northern Minnesota I found these to be warm and comfortable while hunting waterfowl when chest waders were not used. The comfort of these this fall has made my decision to try these on the ice while fishing this winter. The really helped keep you warm while using them as a great layer. I also guide open water fishing season so will be wearing them in the early spring and fall days.

I’ve been wearing Sitka gear
I’ve been wearing Sitka gear for 6 seasons now and these are my first experience with pants. They are as good as it gets. Sizing: I am 6’ 180lbs and normally wear a 34”-35” waist. The retailer had both 32” and 34” in stock so I was able to try both. The 32’s were just a bit snug but close. The 34” were perfect with a finger of room to spare. I tried on the Gradient pant also - fit was the same but the fleece lining on the Dakotas made them feel much more comfortable. Early goose season weather in Michigan can be all over the map but these have out performed every pant I’ve ever worn. At 66 I’ve seen the evolution from stiff waxed outer wear to Sitka. Lighter, high tech insulation, incredible zippers and zipper placement this stuff truly is gear not clothing. Once you try Sitka there is no going back. I have convinced a number of my hunting cronies to try Sitka and the comments are all the same: “wish I had tried this stuff sooner”.

Nice pants. They’re very comfortable and fit very well. I love the little bit of insulation they have and they keep me warm in freezing when paired with a heavy weight base layer pant inside my insulated breathable waders. Although they are not the absolute warmest wader pants out there, but I give that up for the durable shell of these pants which looks nice and works well for an outer layer on not so brutal field and dry land hunts. Only real gripe is for me they run a touch long in the inseam compared to other Sitka pants.

These have become my go to every day pants when the weather gets anywhere close to cold. I am 6'5, 260lbs and had to go up a waist size to fit comfortably in the legs. But the stretchy fabric and fleece lined inside is like wearing a pair of sweatpants with a thicker outer shell. Amazing pair of winter pants, and fit great under waders.

I love these pants...warm and
I love these pants...warm and comfortable. My only gripe with them is the same gripe I've heard from anyone else who owns these...why not make them in big game camo patterns? I mentioned this to someone at Sitka once on the phone, and his comment was that a layering system is more ideal for big game hunters, so it's more suited for bird hunters. Guess what...bird hunters layer too, so that makes no sense. Sometimes when it's really cold, it's nice to have that extra fleece layer without piling into 17 different pairs of britches! Maybe I want a base layer and a fleece lined pant for a really cold day of deer or elk hunting late season? Why is that so hard to understand? Also, I love that these pants don't have those stupid gimmicky knee pads! Yes, I know the knee pads are removable from the big game pants, but it still leaves extra bulky layers around the knees due to the sleeve where you slide the knee pad into. Plus I don't want to pay for a knee pad I'm just going to remove anyway. Let's be honest...90 percent of us don't use the knee pads anyway, and at best they are really only useful for archery hunters that have to sneak in extra close. Archery season is early in the year, so why do the Timberline pants need knee pads? My suggestion to Sitka: Either offer these pants in big game patterns and recognize that late season big game hunts can be really cold, or remove the stupid knee pads from the Timberline pants, and add the fleece liner to them instead. Maybe you need to try a late season hunt in Wyoming or Montana and see how cold it gets if you really don't understand???

I am an upland bird hunter so this review is based on that pursuit. I bought these for those late season roosters in MN, SD, & ND. I am also a tall hunter 6'3' and the longs fit perfect for me. I am also an athletic fit at 190, if this information helps in your purchase. I like the ability to layer wil these pant. Cool days I can wear no base layer and stay nice and warm. On those single digit days and wind in the teens I can layer and achieve the same warmth. Highly recommend.

Not what I was expecting. They are actually really thick I bought these for multiple uses when deer hunting and waterfowl. I have 34 waste I'm 5'6 they were extremely too long. And quite noisy but not as bad as some nomad pants I already had. Immediately put them on when I got them as I'm always excited to get new gear and they were too warm if I wanted them to be this thick and heavy I would've purchased bibs. I like the solid pants. I returned this product. I understand the layering process but here in Texas I won't have much of use for it. I plan to use base layers and will exchange for the grinder pants instead. On bright side the vents are amazing but still not enough for me. They are super soft and comfortable as I've found with most sitka products are. However they are thick but they are NOT bulky.

I have never owned Sitka
I have never owned Sitka until a month ago. The price point was always the distraction but I'm a firm believer in 'you get what you pay for' so I ended up biting the bullet and let me tell you, the fit and quality of these pants are second to none!! I have not put these to the test in the field as of this post but I have no doubt that they will perform flawlessly. Another area of concern was sizing, because everything fits differently. I'm 6'1', 175lbs with a 35' measured waist (in between Sitka's recommended sizing); the 34R is PERFECT with a thumbs-width room for allowing for a base layer and tucking a base layer shirt into the pants. Well done Sitka!! I'm excited to receive the Sitka Dakota hoodie that I just ordered thanks to the Black Friday sales. :)

There may not be a better all around pant out there! The soft fleece lining makes these more comfortable than your favorite flannel, lounge around the lodge pants. These are great under the waders during mid season. Enough to keep you warm, while providing soft comfort. Just as I do with the Grinder Pant, I wear the Dakota Pant (in Mud) all Fall and Winter; for dog training and trips to town. However, they have quickly become my favorite pant for laying round the house on a lazy afternoon as well. The Dakota Pant; fits right, moves well and is flat comfortable!
