Blind Eye Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Anyone have a particular vendor and/or style of pants that are lightweight? I'm located in Florida and the canvas type pants are heavy and hot here. Any ideas, greatly appreciated. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imis Twohofon,SASS # 46646 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I bought a pair of Indigo Palms pants many years ago from a clearance rack that were loosely woven, cotton, and styled like blue jeans but in a light brown, they were very light and cool in Middle Tenn heat and humidity. I would like to replace them, Indigo Palms is still in business, a little pricey but they lasted more than ten years in this game. Imis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 I have some Horsefly pants that are very lightweight and I love them, but he's been gone a long time. When I started out I got some lightweight black trousers from https://www.riverjunction.com I see they have a very large variety now, looks like some of them are lightweight.

Reverend P. Babcock Chase Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Howdy Blind Eye, Years ago, I bought a pair of white painters pants. Before the first washing, I carefully cut off a back pocket and those down on the leg. After washing all the stitch holes disappeared and I had some "Mexican" pants.

Reverend Chase I do this also, but with scrubs...I even soaked em in a bit of "tea water" to get rid of the bright white and get the "adobe dust color" in them slightly..gotten where I much prefer dressin' mexi-injun than all the heavy stuff. Makes posse chores easier to do also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Devil Dale Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The LLBean catalog currently has some "classic fit" jeans that are lighter weight, have some stretch, and they actually have a waistline that doesn't have to be hiked up every few minutes.

Jefro, SASS#69420 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I just order the cotton pants I normally wear from Lands End one size larger then add suspender buttons. Have a pair of kaki and light gray. Also check 2nd hand stores for suit paint. Good Luck I do this also, but with scrubs...I even soaked em in a bit of "tea water" to get rid of the bright white and get the "adobe dust color" in them slightly..gotten where I much prefer dressin' mexi-injun than all the heavy stuff.
