I personally like jeans or cargo pants. They are comfortable to wear.

Trying to do some R&D.

Do you have a preferred brand/style of pants for shooting?

What type of pocket configuratuon would you like to see?

What type of fabric do you prefer?

Would custom sizes be something you would be interested in?

Trying to do some R&D.

Do you have a preferred brand/style of pants for shooting? Vertx Phantom LT for dynamic drills.

What type of pocket configuratuon would you like to see? Cargo pockets on the thighs and regular front and back pockets.

What type of fabric do you prefer? Not sure exactly, but a lightweight polyester blend.

Would custom sizes be something you would be interested in? I like to eat, so I like in between sizes. 32 waist fits fine, but I prefer 33 waist. I dislike when they offer BDU sizes like Small-Reg or Medium-Short.

i was a little concerned that it could give too much of a view of "little lee", if you know what i mean

Do you have a preferred brand/style of pants for shooting?
I don't like the overpriced "tactical pants" that have jacked up pricing due to brand name.  I do like a "tactical style" pant due to its design, but more of a "covert" type of pant.  Double knee, diamond gusseted double stitch crotch.  Zipper front, not button.  Up to 1.75" belt loops.  Adjustable waistband for when carrying inside the pant holster.

What type of pocket configuratuon would you like to see? 
Front and rear pockets, rear without flaps.  Side covert non flap pocket with interior pocket that would hold a 30 round M4 / rifle mag that is easy access without protruding.

What type of fabric do you prefer? 
Hot weather lightweight 40/60 cotton / poly rip stop material.  Not baggy, not tight, but around a relaxed fit.

Would custom sizes be something you would be interested in?
I pretty much fit a standard size, but custom is not a bad option.
