Default Pants question

I know all you gays will have the answers I need.

I need some khaki/tan colored cargo pants for my job. But Im on my feet and running around all day so they have to breathe well. Its hot and humid here during the summer and my junk sweats like a ****. Any suggestions?

I used this when I worked at Little Palm Island.

Trust me, you don't even know what humidity is.

Do this. Linen is more expensive (why?), but it's worth it. You watch Bogart in Casablanca? Those are what he's wearing. Plus, the ladies will think you're classy.

+1 Under ABU's Not a damn thing can keep your ***** from sweating. Powder is the only think to cool and absorb under that hot stuff they issue, even if you do go commando. Gold bond feels like a million bucks when you are sweaty.

FRACUs... oh man.

The guys here authorized civilian attire wear a lot of 5.11 tactical pants. I can't speak to their sweatiness, but they can sure take a beating and have some conveniently placed pockets, so they may make good work pants.

I was looking at the 5.11. If they were anything less then $54.99 I would have ordered them already.

Okay if you're looking for 5.11 type pants, get the LA police gear ones (look just like 5.11's) however they're much more light weight, I wore them in Iraq and my ***** got sweaty, but not that bad like 5.11's. Plus they're cheap as dirt.

And I'll quote you and agree, just because.

icantthink, this is the answer to your question, why is there any more discussion?

**** this linen bullshit.

Just wear leather pants 24/7. Wear the same pants for a few years and eventually they will hold their shape when you take them off. Seriously I have worn leather pants commando in all 50 states. I think that after 3 years the cow came back to life as another lifeform. I used to hear them talking to me as I fell asleep.

Linen sounds great, but can you get them in cargo?

Just got back from old navy, got a pair. The pocket suck but they seem like they are going to breath pretty good.
