I really wanted to hate these pants

I purchased these because the tenacity pant was discontinued and upon receiving them I was skeptical to say the least. I felt the Tenacity pant was perfect in fit and stretch. I reluctantly decided to give these pursuits a fair chance. I threw them on and went on one of the worst, most brutal 4 day hunts that left me absolutely beat and out of gas mid way through. We’re talking, dehydration, full body cramps, fatigue, scree slope scurrying, ravines that I thought I might have to hit SOS to get out of… Not one time during that miserable hunt did I wish I had on different pants. Field proven, best pants I’ve ever hunted in.

Strong all-around western big game hunting pant I

I’m a gear tester and brand ambassador for Pnuma. They sent me a pair of the pursuit pants to try out.

So far I’ve used them on a backcountry mule deer scouting trip (3.5 mile backpack, with 3,500 feet of elevation gain, with temps in the 70s). I’ve also used them on a 25 mile round trip ascent of the tallest peak in Utah.

I would put these pants up against KUIU’s attack pants (of which I own three pairs). The pursuit pants seem tougher than the attack pants, and I like their fit better (a bit less baggy than Kuiu). However, the attack pants are likely lighter in case you are ounce counting.

The pockets seem durable and well-placed. The zippers on the though and rear pockets lessen the chance of losing important items like wallets, keys, knife, Garmin Mini InReach, fire starters, etc. The pants are made of sturdy material that lessens the effects of stickers rubbing on trees wild walking. They breath adequately. The thigh vents help shed heat.

I plan to use them for mid-season to late season hunts (layering merino wool under them in late season hunts with temps below 40 degrees). I’ll likely use them on a backcountry Utah mule deer and elk hunt this fall, a cold moose hunt in Alberta, a wild hog hunt in California, and a coues deer hunt in New Mexico.

My only suggested improvement so far would be to add a loop of lightweight cord to the zippers so that you can more easily open and close them while wearing gloves.

Comfortable pants. Nice material fits good for a big guy. Only complaint is the pockets where you would normally carry a pocket knife with the clip. I notice my knife was starting to work up and out of the pocket. The first time. I pushed it back down then a few hours later noticed my bench made bugout 535 was missing. So beware on that guys. It turned out to be a sad hunt thinking about losing a 200 dollar knife. I know wth was I thinking carry it but to be honest the last 3 years with any knifes I carried I never had one come out of my kuiu attack or pro pants
