Hi Folks!



I have found the Tru-Spec 24-7 pants to be very comfortable and useful when
doing various outdoor and indoor Amateur Radio activities in support of the
Red Cross, local government and other served agencies and for general use
when you need pockets to keep things organized and yourself protected.

 

Go on Google or Amazon and search for "Tru-Spec 24-7 canvas" or "Tru-Spec
24-7 ripstop"  

I found both to be useful, though I tend to prefer the cotton for both fire
safety and convenience reasons, though the rip-stop is more light weight.

The khaki or olive drab are pretty useful choices, though other colors are
available.  I use the khaki color almost every day, but the Olive or "OD
Green" ones might be useful if you need more organizational pockets in the
field while in Scouting environment.

I also use a wide belt with a plastic buckle from "Spec-Ops" to be a great
choice for its usefulness, simplicity and cost.  

Again, choices of colors are wide, but I bought an "OD Green" one so that I
could use it with my Scout pants and shorts.
