Gone are the days that shooters want to actually look like they are going to the range. Those khaki cargo pants with the large ugly pockets draws attention and just isn’t attractive. This goes for women and…men. (Yup, you guys don’t look great either) So what are womens options that still give protection to our skin, the ability to stretch and move, and look good? Here is what I have found (and still wear) to be comfortable pants with enough pockets to get the job done and still make me look like a feminine outdoorsman. Yes, with belt loops too.
