Hey Lawsonland...I get my detecting trousers from TSC, I'm sure they have them at Farm and Fleet, or Menards...'CE Schmidt Workwear' khakis, super light cotton, all weather, I wear an Underarmour lower skinny if its sub 20's cold..great room in the crotch and cheap..really comfortable and take a hell of a beating..
..no problem at all with chafing in high heat going 'commando' when the situation merits...
In the hot Summer, I'm convinced the best detecting pants are either none at all, assless chaps, or possibly a kilt, all of which will probably attract some unwanted attention!....but alas, I live in the conservative heartland, where adult gentlemen of good repute are expected to wear some sort of pantaloon configuration at all times, even indoors!...
...One things for sure, the standard blue jeans or just any normal pants can't take all the 'ups and downs' we do without blowing out the crotch or seat or knees...detecting is tough on pants!
I think I'm gonna straight Goodwill from now on, maybe in a full tuxedo, top hat, monocle, and a cumberbund!, like Mr. Peanut! except in lieu of the cane, I'll swing the metal stick!, ... In case any attractive rich ladies show up...a guy like me with no naturally attractive physical attributes to the fairer sex, zero 'game' in that regard, miniscule vocabulary and bank account, and a 'chump' ride to boot, has to look sharp in the event of that outside possibility!...
I dont think my Wife will mind if some super rich dame snipes me off her hands, although I havnt asked her, if she gets fair market value in the form of a dowry, I could probably convince her to make the trade...in fact, after wearing me out for 35+ years, and seeing no actual financial benefit, she should be happy to make the deal! I believe me bringing home a pair of high dollar FireHose pants for 'metal detecting' might push her right over the edge, they do look too fancy and expensive and she would be on to me in no time! Although the Duluth Trading long tees I might sneak past her,...:especially if theres a nasty clog in the crapper or under the sink she wants me to manually fix...shrug:
I might call and ask Duluth if they have any 'blems' or slightly stained returns...that more suits my style and I bet I can sneak them on through as a 2 dollar 'garage sale' find!!...
If not, I'll ask them about their 'return policy'...if its leniant, maybe I'll buy a pair, go commando all Summer and return them in the Fall? Good deal for somebody!

Nasty words, and suggestive post.
