Are these pants really that flammable?!!! I like the style, but flammable tactical pants seem retarded.

I'm not sure why you would think this fabric is flammable. Haven't put myself on fire to test it either! They are very sturdy and worth the cost.

No lol, there just not made for extreme heat, I laughed about that as well, but I haven't been set on fire with all the work I do, and we use torches lol, I wouldn't go setting myself on fire to see what happens but all is good! Hahaha

Haha apparently they are because there are warning tags and stickers all over them... i work with a fire dept, but we are never ever near flame close enough that it matters. I wear them on the ambulance every day, they are really comfortable. If you are wearing them in a job that puts you close to open flame i wouldn't buy them, if not, you'll be fine.

Thin rip stop type material like Army ACU pants. The fabric it has little grids or hashtag, squares. There's no padding in the thickness like a Carhart pant would be and thinner than a pair of Dickies. They are not waterproof but water beads up some on them but will soak through a little.

They probably wouldn't be too warm, but I would personally choose lighter pants if it was that warm (I live in Michigan - 50 degrees feels warm outside to me!). I wear these sweatpants outside to jog or walk when it's 30-40 degrees, but my body temp heats up by jogging. After you wash these a few times, they sort of lose a tiny bit of the fuzz inside, but I still love them. If it's 30 degrees or colder, I'll wear these + some running tights underneath. Sorry if this doesn't answer your question! If it's 50-60 degrees outside and I wear these pants, I'd probably wear a short sleeve shirt as long as it's sunny.

Sorry, I threw these away about a month ago. I repaired them twice, where they tore on the seams, but the last tear was huge and in the middle of the rear, and not worth fixing. I should update the review, it is worth saying that the person I bought them for wore them a lot and is very hard on clothing. I bought him a similar pair that were Hanes, and he has torn them already as well, so it is likely the man not the pants that is at fault.

Kevlar is not flammable, don't waste your time trying to burn it. Super glue sounds good.

I live in north texas very hot very humid and I wear them every day at workAs a marine mechanic. They are a little warm at first but after 5 or so washes they breathe much better. Even new they still breath better than jeans.

I have not worn them in lower than 40F. Between 50 an 60F, the pants are great! between 40 and 50F, it depends on how long I'm outside in them for, the longer I'm outside in them (more than 2 hrs), the longer I need to thaw out when I get home. Now, to put things in perspective, I live in NC where it does not get super cold like the Midwest, so the slightest cold bothers me. Hope this has helped.

Yes, I have and they are fine, they don't "hold on to" much more mud than bare skin does.Also. all these comments about DON"T WEAR PANTS are plain old bullcrap There is NO reason not to wear a FULL combat uniform in these races if that's your thing. I and many others have done it. If you want to COMPETE then sure, wear lightweight gear. But for a fun run you can wear a 50'lb ruck and BDU if you want.

I wore the Propper lightweight men's pants when I was working in 30-90 degree (mountains) Fahrenheit weather. Ideally they are comfortable in the spring and fall (50-80 degree F). If you are going to wear them in constant cold weather (close to or below freezing) I would wear thermals underneath to provide protection from the elements.

Based on your preferences, I would have to say that you would not be happy with the Propper tactical shorts. I don't think they are overly tight in the crotch or thighs, but they aren't loose. I will say, at least for me they stop at the knee. Try some TruSpec brand and I think you will be pleased.

In fairness I haven't tried setting them on fire but I think they are flammable.

Nope! This is not a tactical vest. It is made from lightweight dry-fit material.

These pants have full size legs and knee area; they remind me of the old docker style pants; I think they would accommodate knee pads as long as the pads were not extra large; and I guess it also depends on how fat your knees are (haha). Side comment: these pants are designed like professional tactical pants; same as what you see Agents wear. I totally love them; they are very comfortable and the quality is excellent.

The material is a very heavy nylon outer shell, and I would say that they would protect against any "road rash". I've found the pants to be very dry during my winter rides, and very warm. I have only ridden in 2 heavy rains since owning them, and both times, I only had some small wet areas around my knees...... Other than that, for the price, these have been excellent pants, and a great addition to my gear. I am anxious to see during the summer months how they work with the zip out lining removed, and if they will be to hot to use??

They are great too put your pants on when you take them off at night or anytime. they keep them looking like they haven't been worn. You have too pull them tight and stretch them.

I was thinking the same thing. So I put one in my shirt pocket in the sweltering Michigan summer heat. It came out wet but not black. I put them in backwards they didn't turn black. I tried them on a few other places n they really didn't change. Only my feet when following the directions. Wash, socks, eight hours, all of it.. I'm a skeptic too, but I think the ten pack is worth a spin. I co things that make my body dirty inside and these do make it fell cleaner. It could still be a scam. See skeptic

I am wondering the same thing about the flammability. Did you ever find out the answer?
