Hey folks I Need suggestions on some camo pants under 50$ that feel like actual pants. Also I wear a ton of jeans and there really comfortable so I was wondering is there any camo pants that feel like jeans but obviously don't look like them? I don't need super super thick ones but some that will hold up against getting possibly tore on brush and etc. Thanks for any recommendations
 
Sportsman's guide usually has alot to choose from. It just depends on what material you want and what pattern. Still have my digital jungle and desert ones but some of them have the crotch ripped out from when I was still in during use in the field.
 
I've had great success with my Magellan Camo from Academy Sports. Cheap, super comfortable, durable. I'm on my third season with it and it's holding up fine.

What kinda terrain do you hunt in? Also how is it in the rain or snow?

I hunt a very steep and hilly 53 acres. It's basically a heavy stretch cotton/lycra. Definitely not rain or snow proof but I have a rain suit and can layer very well under all of it.

Alright I was just wondering on how easy they could tear since I don't have a blind or stand I just set on the ground and so I wondered how easy they could tear on something like a little stump or etc

Oh man, not likely to tear. I have dragged those pants through hookthorn, butt scooted down a hill side, gone up and over and under tons of fallen trees. The durability is there from my perspective.

What I really like about them is the attention to the little details. Double layer cuffs, extra layers where a knife clip would wear out a pocket, and a super well designed waist band that has a few inches of stretch built in.

They’re pretty darn smartly built for the price.

PS: these are the ones I have. https://www.academy.com/p/magellan-...-7-pocket-twill-pants?sku=large-real-tree-apx

I couldn't tell but do they have pockets? Also is there belt loops? Or how do they stay tight plus how deep are the pockets? And I'm sorry if I sound like I'm asking alot I just want a good pair that will last me
 
7 pockets including two cargo pockets. The pockets are all extra deep, even the hip pockets. I haven’t lost anything out of them yet. Plenty of belt loops.

I can’t say how durable they are overall, but mine have lasted 3 seasons plus a fair bit of yard work. If they did wear out, I’d buy them again without question.

I really like the material they are made out of. It took a couple washings to break in but they are super soft and the stretch material is great - no binding siting, standing or stretching.
 
Two things come to mind: Redhead brand from Cabelas can get the job done for a lower price point, my Brother in Law has it and has had pretty good luck with it for the money. I have slowly upgraded my stuff to higher end so I can't give you any live preference there. The other thing I would suggest is keeping an eye on camofire.com they occasionally have some really good prices on high end hunting clothing.
