I have several folks ask about the pants (and kneepads) I wear. I wear these:
https://www.carhartt.com/product/103335/rugged-flex-steel-cargo-pant?colorCode=undefined_SW (color is "Tarmac")
https://www.carhartt.com/product/103193-320M/knee-pads?searchkey=knee
I bought 2 pairs, but I am still on my first pair after 70 events. These are REALLY DURABLE and the kneepads are cushy enough to kneel on concrete. I will say for these pants, the kneepad sizing is wrong. If you wear 36 waist, order large knee pads. I have a set of medium kneepads that I would sell. I think I used them one event and decided to order the next size up.
Here's what they look like after 3.5 years. The knee pad slots on the outside are my favorite part of the pants. The large loop on the right side is my second favorite part. I attach a large carabiner on it to hold my earmuffs. Also, there are pockets right above each knee that is very suitable to hold a cell phone on your trigger side. While some may consider them less "professional-looking" than 511 or plain khakis, I think they are the pants best suited for Project Appleseed. YMMV

Thanks for the tip brother. I've put this on my wish list and maybe "Santa" will bring me a pair in a few weeks. O0
