Extra Stretch
#1
Just a really quick check to see if anyone can recommend some hard wearing outdoors style trousers that are extra flexible around the upper thigh and groin area. Simple reason. When hunting yesterday, I hopped over a barbed wire fence and it ripped the crotch on my trousers.

The main issue is that I have large thighs and good flexibility in my hips, so I want trousers that can hold up to what I want from them.

I'm looking at sewing a section of lycra into the crotch area, same as MMA shorts have.

Any companies that make good flexibility trousers would be much appreciated.

I have fairly large thighs too. I find 5.11 Stryke really comfortable and have the stretch.

Same here. I alway go baggy, just for the thigh thing, but I'm currently going with 40inch waist sizes to get baggy enough for the thighs, and there's still plenty of crotch ripping going on.

Think, tough trousers that would be suitable for yoga! That kind of flexibility.
