I have to opportunity to test products for Gore-Tex. I am told to give honest and accurate reviews about the products they sell and this pant is one of the best pieces of gear I have ever worn in my life. First thing I did was take the knee pads out, I thought they were uncomfortable to walk in but the pockets that the pads are held in create enough padding around the knees to comfortably crawl around. Given the double reinforced, waterproof, breathable knees and seat, this pant is a must have/go to pant for any hardcore hunter that spends a lot of time glassing or stalking on hands and knees in any type of weather. The Timberline's are very flexible and non-restrictive so climbing up the steepest mountains is a cake walk in these babies. I would say this pant is medium weight, so in the later season, base layering is key.
