Rogue Elite

Lightweight pants vs standard weight

Woolrich Elite pants are made of either 100% cotton ripstop or 8.5oz cotton canvas.   I’ve seen 5.11 makes pants that are supposedly made of the same material and weight, but there is a felt difference.   The standard weight pants are styles 4904 and 4429, these pants are the most commonly used Woolrich Elite Pants followed by the 2 styles that are made of the ripstop material.  The 4904 pants are being listed on clearance for $25 and are a deal.

There is a huge difference in what kind of pants are tolerable in warm enviromnets.   Once you start hitting the 80 F weather those cotton canvas pants will really get heavy.    The styles 4441 and 4447 are your hot weather pants, and if those are too hot to wear, try the shorts.   Everyone has varying degrees of tolearance in the type of apparel they can wear.   We’d consider the 4441 pants to be the most worn unless you’re taking a carbine or tactical class or you’re toting and M16 or Ar15 all day, and then we’d recommend the style 4447 Lightweight Operator pants.
