would these be good for survival pants?

Don't think I know the answer to that, but they are well made, material seems strong.

I believe, yes, in hot weath climate in works like Forestguard, but isn't the ideal, this may work well but..., I sugesst to you Propper but 100% cotton ripstop BDU's pants, P.D. I'm in Colombia, I work in field, wet forest and cloud forest, I know wath I say.

No. These pants attract zombies. I think it's something in the waterproofing material. Also, they SCREAM "I am well-prepared and have lots of supplies on hand." You need to be a little more subtle than that, or you'll attract attention. Also, the belt has a tendency to get wrapped around your neck and choke you out, which decreases chances of survival.

Best warm-weather EMS pants I've found. They're somewhere between rip-stop nylon and a normal solid work-pant. They dry quickly, wipe clean (ish), and are cooler overall than most pants of a similar style.

Yes, absolutely. I use them for 30-minute kickboxing workouts which require a somewhat tight fist so they would defintely work for making a loose fist for jogging.

I would definitely say yes. I wear them over a pair of insulated pants with large cargo pockets and rip stop fabric and often times forget I'm even wearing them.

I would think so. They are not thick and I think they would be comfortable.

Probably.... but the pants have a drawstring to tighten. You could make it work. I would prob go a size smaller. They are pretty long already.

Depends on how cold you're talking about. The material is slightly thicker than most of the other hiking pants I own and does keep heat in a little better but I wouldn't wear it for sub-zero temperatures hiking either without a base layer. The legs will have room for a base layer but both pairs I had were tight around the crotch region so if you are thinking of cotton long johns or smart wool that's not cut well, it may ride up a bit. Compression shorts/leggings will probably work ok though.

Whoops, I made a mistake, my pants are not 1000 Denier (duh), but the Ripstop material, which is still very tough material. Anyhoo, you won't have a problem with them.

Yes. Absolutely. They will work for the wet clothes and much more. They are the BEST!

I couldn't say for sure as I cannot speak from experience, but I'd imagine they would work just fine. They have great grip, even when wet. And I occasionally ride with combat boots.

I think they would I bought them for tying fishing knots and they seem to work well for that. Hope this helps

I think they would be perfect for that purpose. The covers fit fairly snug so it will probably be air tight

They work great for the purpose you described. Just make sure they are clean to avoid and abrasion. Also, wash clothes separately. DW

I don't think so. I used them on some thin summery colombia hiking pants to go to a waterfall in a jungle. My lower body got completely soaked

Yes. I wear them over my combat pants, which is made of 1000 Denier (very tough/coarse material) and don't have a problem with it. I imagine jeans would be even more comfortable.

I didn't buy them for wearing anywhere except to bed in the winter. For that they work GREAT! How they would hold up in boots is iffy. They seem a bit to 'fluffy' for much hard wearing. I would try it but would wear thin 'wicking' socks under them.

The material is a smooth vinyl. They would probably be fine over pants but may not feel good against bare skin.
