Outdoor Trousers

Three years in development. Four continents of testing. The result is the Forest Pants. Men's technical outdoor pants built from rugged 4-way stretch Venator fabric — water and mud-resistant, with enough stretch to move freely in any terrain and a slightly slimmer fit that moulds to your body after just a few trips out. Reinforced water-resistant backside with a soft, fleecy lining keeps you warm and dry whether you're kneeling in wet grass or sitting on a cold rock — because much of hunting is sitting.

Two deep zippered side pockets, one back pocket and a thigh vent that doubles as a venting pocket when you're working hard. Articulated knees for ease of crouching. Removable knee pads. D-ring for keys or a carabiner. Zippered and domed fly. Note: these run slim — size up from your normal jeans size.

Best bush pants I’ve ever owned!

To give you some idea of how good these Forest Pants are, I was on the survival show called Alone, and could only take 2 pairs of pants!

I chose the Kuiu pants and the Swazi Forest pants.

I was out there for 73 days and wore the Forest pants for 65 of those days!

Reasons for wearing them are many, more comfortable,water proof knees and bum, can open every zip pocket with 1 hand, were warm when cold, but seem to be just as good when warm or hot doing activities! And only half the price of the other brand.

Every day on Alone I would pause, and say to the camera, have I mentioned how good these pants are, as a running joke, but it was all edited out as they are not allowed to favor a brand.

So now I were them at home working, and love the knee pads, hunting and fishing as well.

My wife is sick of the sight of them, cause it’s all I wear!!😳🤣🤣😆

Do yourself a favour 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

Hey there Anorak is awsome too! Lived in that on Alone for 73 days🤟

Forest pants

would recommend going up 1 size than normal, awesome pants can't wait to use them, unfortunately, they seem to be perfect for winter use but won't get any use coming into the Aussie summer

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you have Swazi retail stores?

We do have a Swazi shop right next door to Swazi HQ here in Levin, New Zealand.

We only sell our products through the very best retailers - we're very selective about who we have representing our gear! Find out where your nearest store is by clicking on the Swazi Stockists section or click here for the quick link.

What is the Swazi Warranty?

All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.

Will I have to pay customs on an international order?

International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.

These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.

Please check with your local customs agent for more details.

Can I change or cancel my order?

We process orders very quickly, which means in most cases, we can't make changes after an order has been placed. We definitely cannot make changes after we have sent a shipping confirmation email with a tracking link.

In saying that, if you have already placed an order and would like to cancel or change it, please email us service@swazi.co.nz or call 64 6 368 4822 within 2 hours of placing your order. We will do the best we can.

How do I know what size I need?

Every individual product page has a link to our size chart.
