You know, bench shooting at the range and shooting the bull at the line. Serious stuff that requires tough military style and wearability.What kind of tough tactical combat are we doing? I’m going with wranglers

Sorry, I should have but didn’t resist. I did edit my reply to include an actual serious answer, though it may not meet your requirements. FWIW, the LAPG pants have lasted years of regular use for me.taking life seriously I see....
I am fine.. just jabbing back in humor myself.... I am looking for military operational toughness, and I am in Pennsylvania... as a result I am not looking for light ripstop gear... want pants that will stand up to wooded, tough going in potential temps that can get and stay below freezing... being a skiier, I already have the polypropelene to go underneath... I have a pair of crye combat pants, but not looking to spend over $250 for the name brand if I can avoid it... The Duluth Fire hose gear looks good, but would like to see other ideas that have additional tactical functionality if I can collect ideas... I really do appreciate everyone's thoughts...You know, bench shooting at the range and shooting the bull at the line. Serious stuff that requires tough military style and wearability.
ETA - I don’t need military toughness and additionally am budget limited. So I have found that the various ripstop operator pants at LA Police Gear wear pretty well for matches and all types of practice on and around barricades. I have different ones (depending on sales) that all have reinforced knees and reinforcements at the crotch and other areas that take a beating during (sorta) hard use. They wear well enough that I use them for other work tasks too.
I buy the types that wick away moisture and dry quickly when wet. Here in Florida they are cooler to wear than jeans/denim in the crush of summer.
I hear everything you are saying... I am not the type that looks like the SHTF when I go to the range... generally it is cargo shorts and fishing shirts or hunting pants (but who wants blaze orange portions on the gear in a combat scenario)... but for training for such an event, yes, for the cargo capacity with my combat belt and carrier... my question is with regard to toughness and function because if the event ever does occur, and I hope it doesn't (but my wishes have nothing to do with fate), I don't want to trade space for ammunition for space for clothing that wore out to soon... those are the details behind my request...Just find a pair of pants that have a cut that you like and can move with you. It doesn’t matter what pants you buy, clothing is a consumable item. Wear em long enough and you’ll start to create wear spots and have holes. Something like 5.11 Apex pants may last you ten years if you only go to the range once a month. Or the same pants can last you one weekend. Same goes for Crye or anything you can find. Buy what fits you well and permits mobility.
I vote 5.11 or under armor pants because they are cheap and come in various styles. When they get torn to shit in the knees, turn em into drinking (or garage/yard work) shorts. Depending on the model/color, you can wear em around and won’t have to worry about looking like a Gucciflage weirdo when you stop at the store to buy sour patch kids on the way home from the range.
Looks like they only have two sizes in stock, skinny basketball player and average basketball player.
5.11 will for the bill for ya man. You’re looking too far into this. Go with any of their styles with the flex tech and you’ll be good. Their original style models don’t have any flex so getting in and out of tight places they don’t move with ya. I mean if you want to hear the term “military” with it, military dudes and security contractors wear 5.11, so they must be rugged (lol)...and they are to a point. But there isn’t a $100 “military tough” pant out there that’s going to remain intact after skull dragging on gravel and asphalt for 48hrs straight. That said, you’ll be fine with whatever comfortable pair of pants you go with. Spend a week on a gravel/concrete range doing any sort of training and you’re going to start getting small tears. Spend a weekend busting brush in the forest or swamps and you’re going to get tears. Your first jump over a fence will see whatever you go with get caught in the wire and tear. As you cram mags in all of your pockets and start running the boogaloo mile, they’ll rattle around to the point that you’ll wish you didn’t put them in there.I hear everything you are saying...
