In his role as MRE brand ambassador, Kyle Defoor produced a great video on why he wears Mountain Khakis. I have a few pairs as well and like Kyle, my first pair were the Mountain Utility model. They wear like iron. I’m also wearing a lot of Kuhl and Arc’teryx with two pairs of TAD Force 10s thrown in the mix as well as well. There are a lot of good pants out there and Kyle makes a compelling case as to how you can go all in on one brand. Mountain Khakis not only does pants. Based on my visit to their booth at last Outdoor Retailer, they are definitely worth a look for shirts and jackets as well. It might also get some of you jazzed up to know that MK is owned by Freedom Group who also owns Remington and its affiliate firearms companies.

please stop posting cool clothing! My closet is full and my wallet is empty! 🙂
I love my Mk. Close 2nd are the tad Spartans.
Where are they made?
So you guys know. If stuff isn’t made for the military, it’s not gonna be made here. Think about that next time you shop at Walmart.
try to avoid that store like the plague. The plague of cheap crap!
Every time I make a purchase. Difficult to avoid sometimes, but I do. Love Kitanica, Bill’s Khakis, the TAD stuff still made in here…
Pretty much like Carhartts to me but more expensive
I’ve been wearing these for years, first got ahold of a pair during a sponsored vacation to Africa a few years ago. I still have that pair and several others. I may be incorrect bu I could have sworn they make some in the states but I could be wrong.
Maybe it is me, but I am a consistent 36X34 and no matter how much I want them to fit, they just don’t fit through the thighs (too tight) and butt!
I guess you have to have a fairly slight frame to wear them.
I’ve found that the Mountain Utility model is huge in the seat and thighs.
