Reviews

Encounter LT

"Incredible sporty and comfy fit for a bigger fella. The cut and flexibility make wearing these pants worry free when crossing fences and climbing into stands. Overall the best fit and function pant I have ever owned... I have several pairs of these to match seasons and needs..."

— mike m. (5/5)

Super Quiet!!

"So far great pants, good for hot weather and cool morning, 50s and 60s. I have used as hot as 80s. The fit is awesome and I love all the zippers for the different pockets! Best of all very very soft and quiet and great heat vents! I have 4 pairs!"

— Mark H. (5/5)

New favorite hunting pant

"Good thickness, not too light, not too heavy. Soft feel on body, but also feels durable. Leg vents are awesome for those days I trek to get into my stand, but then zip up when cooled off in the mid-october days when its cooler."

— Ryan H. (5/5)

Been on the stand 2x

"Been on the stand 2x with them so far, 50-60 degrees and 40-50 degrees. Very comfortable and quiet material, bought for early season, and clearly with light layering they will be good for cooler mid-season as well."

— Dusty B. (5/5)

— Stacey S. (5/5)

Q&A

I wear a 34x32 jeans 5’10” 190lb. I got attack in a 34 short as a gift but the were super snug and I’m looking for early season southern Ohio whitetail pants . Wanted to try the encounter Lt should I get a 34 or 32
The Attack Pant and Encounter LT Pant both fit very similarly so we would recommend size 34 if you want a similar fit or upsizing to a 36 if you want extra room in the Encounter LT Pant
