Mobility in the Field and Marsh

Hardcore Waterfowl’s new Softshell Pant redefines fitted, functional, and comfortable legwear for the waterfowler and upland bird hunter.

MUSKEGON, Mich. (October 8, 2024) – Ruining a perfectly good pair of blue jeans wallowin’ in the mud retrieving a goose was, and still is, standard operating procedure for many hunters. And, whoever is tasked with getting the stains out – as well as determining whether the jeans are going to end up in a garage sale – is none-too-happy.

Thankfully, these situations can be easily averted by investing in a pair of pants specifically designed for recurrently filthy activities, such as waterfowl and upland bird hunting. Pants that not only wear-well and clean-up easily, but also look good enough to wear after-the-hunt. That’s Hardcore Waterfowl’s new Softshell Pant.

Harvest

The Softshell Pant is intelligently designed with tech savvy features, including side seam vent zippers that can be opened for cooling down when midday temps peak, or during laborious hikes in and out.

The Softshell Pant also sports a low-profile zippered front and a five zippered pocket assortment (2 waist, 2 cargo, and 1 side hip). The generous cargo pockets feature non-snag, low-profile flaps that protect contents from the elements. You’ll also appreciate its loops that can accommodate a wide range of belt widths and are well-anchored to a generous waistband that rises enough to keep base layers tucked, and the cold out.

And like all Hardcore creations, the development process begins with the fabric. “The stretch is perfect,” said Hardcore Marketing Director, Steve Allie. The Softshell Pant’s advanced 4-way stretch, polyester/spandex fabric is infinitely comfortable and gives with your every move, not constricting while kneeling or sitting like pants that use traditional woven materials.

Levee

Featuring a modern cut – not stiff and boxy – the Softshell Pant offers fabric-features beyond the flex, too. The stretchy nylon/spandex material has exceptional moisture-wicking properties, drying quickly and breathing when you’re sweating in the field. The premium 4-way stretch material also does a great job of defending against clingy things like burrs and annoying cattail fluff.

The cut and paneling of the fabric expand on the pant’s comfort and range of motion. For one, the crotch is gusseted, which means a unique panel is expertly sewn between the legs for freedom of motion – no bunching. Articulated knees liberate your legs when crouching for a shot or picking up spent shells.

Structurally, the Softshell Pant features reinforced heal and inner leg fabric to yield added durability in these notoriously high-wear areas.

Let’s face it, when shooting waterfowl the odds are often stacked against the hunter for a host of reasons, and outerwear that binds and stifles movement should be the least of your worries. Hunters scrunched down in a blind or pit, or laying prone in a layout blind, regularly come to the realization they did not choose outerwear wisely.

Consider Hardcore’s Softshell Pant the best decision you make this season.
