    What are the attack pants like - are they noisy in the scrub? I've been looking for something suitable for hunting other than during summer, and they look pretty good.

    They're really good, super comfy and light. Not noisy at all.

    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.

    Two of my mates have put them to work over the last year and endorsed them so I have just acquired a pair myself. Lots of good reviews

    From what I see on their (Kuiu) website the items look very similar but the peleton top is certainly cheaper!

    They are awesome pants and certainly the ticket for outside of the summer months and as JoshC says they are super comfy and light to wear.

    Got the 280 coming in the new valo pattern as well as a pair of katuna pants. Love the attack pants, wasn’t a pants wearing person hunting until getting a pair!

    I like the attack pants but the material does pull when scrub bashing and I managed to tear a hole in them somehow.

    No I find the 37.5 fill they use is really good and the puffy - Cirrus and Uncompaghre - have a bit tougher outer. The cut is more.... forgiving. Local agent really good to deal with too.
