SOL Wading Pant and Hoody - YNP to Long Island Sound

"The pants are tremendous; fast drying, and comfortable no matter where you wear them. Also love the SOL Hoody; have pursued Trout in YNP and Montana to Stripers in Long Island Sound - really liking the gear."

Mike B. (5/5)

Favorite summer time guide pants

"These pants are awesome. They fit incredibly well, are super light and cool, and have smartly laid out pockets. Their only flaw is they are kinda fragile. They don’t hold up to thorns in stream side brush very well. That being said I still own 3 pairs of them and wear them all summer long guiding."

Jacob O. (4/5)

The Best Fishing Pants Ever

"One of the best all around wading pants ever made. These pants barely absorb water and dry faster than anything else I have owned. They are extremely durable as well and have held up to all the riverside prickly plants and thorns without any sign of becoming worn down."

Jason S. (5/5)

Back Country Guide Level Pants!

"Fantastic pants! I guide fly fishing and back country trips 7 days a week in Western North Carolina and these pants are far superior to any other quick dry pant I have. Not just in the river, because we get a lot of rain in the Smokies and they are fantastic about drying quickly after getting caught in a shower while hiking or in camp."

Jared W. (5/5)

Not Tall

"I enjoy hiking and fly fishing in the Colorado mountains. These pants are great. I am 5' - 7" tall and spent $24 having them aultered. Orvis, LL Bean and Colombia all offer fishing/hiking pants with inseam selections that work for me. I would buy more but the expense and time associated with going to the tailor is a turn off."

Harry B. (4/5)

One Happy Customer!

"Skwala Sol Wading Pants are wonderfully comfortable under waders. They are also excellent for travel. With all of the stinky hot weather this summer, they are just the ticket for places where shorts just do not pass the dress code. I have these in three colors now, and I could not be more pleased. Thank you!"

Timothy M. (5/5)

Pants fit well are very

"Pants fit well are very comfortable and dry faster than anything I’ve ever worn . One of the first things I noticed was how incredibly thin and light they are. This is both good and bad . I did manage to tear a good size hole into the side In just two outings , so I question the durability . I wouldn’t recommend these if you live in a region with a lot of thorns and briars such as the northeast like I do . I would trade some of quick drying features and breathability for a slightly more durable item ."

Bought these for wet wading.

"Bought these for wet wading. The pants were the expected high quality and design Skwala is know for. These pants are perfect for flying and around town wear as well."

James H. (5/5)

Sol pant

"I rally love these pants ! Inside every color now , I live in them all summer on my boat , they are literally and cool when it’s 95 degrees and dry out fast when wet wading in them . The fit is perfect and they don’t stretch when they get wet , and I get a lot of comments on how good they look ! I’ve pretty much replaced all my other fishing pants with these . Sometimes I reach for the back left pocket that isn’t there , but I get by just fine without it . They also hold up really well ! I recommended these pants to anyone who fishes hard all day in the boat and out"

Anthonie S. (5/5)

"great pants. super comfy. light weight and quick to dry. wore them a few nights on a recent trip to Greece. received several compliments from swanky city folk and euros as well. only complaint would be the lack of 30" inseam. im cursed with short legs."
