Raider Field Pant GC T-Fit - UFG
7 reviews
Uncompromisingly made in the USA, the Raider Pant GC T-Fit is a feature rich, plain front, technical field pant for everyday wear in our Tailored Fit. Made in our updated, performance, technical, all-season Guide Cloth in 5.75oz weight, with 4-way stretch, and DWR. With many considerations for today’s user and the EDC tribe, there are ample pockets without creating a cluttered or bulky design. Available in Universal Field Gray. #raiderfieldpant
Like most of our designs, we use industrial grade construction methods such as heavy duty nylon thread, triple needle stitching on major seams, and more bar-tacks to reinforce stress points than any other pant in its class. The cut and silhouette is a tailored regular fit in keeping with its understated and streamlined appearance, yet a fully capable intent and will move in any direction you do by virtue of our Guide Cloth. The Raider Field Pant GC is equally at home in the field, street or a week at the cabin.
Design highlights include articulated, double reinforced knees, no-twist custom d-rings, diamond gusset, diamond double seat, dedicated knife-multitool pockets, work wear style hand pockets which are accessible when using a pack waist or utility to first line belt, PDW slotted parasmock type no-loss buttons, and reinforced double layer rear cuffs. Designed and built to last in California USA.
Generally, these are great pants. I am 5’9”, ~155#; the size 29 waist fit perfect. The pants move with you, which is nice because I am a cop/detective and don’t need to fight my clothes. I have not worn them enough to determine durability and stain resistance yet. Although, they feel pretty durable, enough for me to confidently wear on duty. My wife says they look good on me, and some other dudes at the office have commented on the coolness.
A couple negatives: I love the pocket lay-out. I carry a bunch of stuff on me at work - knives, flashlights, flash drives, keys, wallet, gun(s), body cams, etc. The side tool pockets are great, and the flat front pockets are awesome if you use pocket hangers for keys and stuff like I do for easy access. The rear “wallet” pockets, however, are a problem. They are way, way too deep. Your wallet ends up riding on the back of your leg below your glute. This is supremely irritating, and somewhat unsightly, if you carry a thick wallet. I have worn these pants about three times now, and just cannot get used to the feel of my wallet riding half way down my leg.
Also, I think a double front button would have been a nice addition for structure. When I unzip the fly to take a leak, the pants twist on the button under the belt, requiring adjustment post-leak. But, I will say there is enough zipper length so that going to the bathroom is not uncomfortable. Another minor quibble, is the D-rings sometimes get stuck sticking out forward instrad of laying flat against the pant. This annoys me.
All in all, a great pant I enjoy wearing except for the rear pockets.

The best combo I have found
These pants fit amazing; the T-Fit is not baggy nor clingy making them good for trails, travel and in the office. The stretch of the Guide Cloth is great for scrambling over things and they are surprisingly easy to keep clean.
PDW you knocked it out the park with this build!

Nice pants
Cut is slim. Great for warm weather missions or for sitting on the porch watching the world go by with your k9 companion or wife. Wish they would get rid of the mesh pouch in the waistband. I cut it out every time.

Great Pants!
What can I say? I bought a second pair. The fabric looks and feels fantastic and the pockets are plentiful and well thought out. Also, when worn with an untucked shirt, they fly right under the radar.
