Pants

Staying dry in the field matters as much as staying quiet or camouflaged. Impact Guns carries waterproof rain pants built for hunting conditions — the Leupold Storm Warden in Ash Green and the Browning Kanawha Rain Pant in Major Brown, Carbon, and Ovix camo, sized from small through 3XL.

Why Waterproof Matters More Than Insulation for Rain Gear

Rain pants are built to keep water out, not to keep you warm on their own — that's the job of whatever you're wearing underneath. Trying to get both from one waterproof layer usually means overheating on the walk in and getting damp from sweat instead of rain.

Leupold Storm Warden vs. Browning Kanawha: Color and Fit Options

The Leupold Storm Warden comes in Ash Green only, sized S through 3XL. The Browning Kanawha Rain Pant offers more color choice — Major Brown, Carbon, and Ovix camo — also spanning a wide size range including 2XL.

Layering Rain Pants Over Base Layers

Rain pants are meant to go over a base or mid layer, not replace one — size up if you're planning to wear them over insulated hunting pants rather than as a standalone layer.

Sizing Up for Cold-Weather Layering

If you typically wear insulated pants underneath, order one size larger than your normal fit so the rain layer isn't binding at the knees or waist when you're moving through the field.

Camo vs. Solid Color: Matching Your Hunting Environment

Ovix and other camo patterns help you stay concealed in the specific terrain you hunt; a solid color like Carbon or Ash Green is a simpler choice if you're not matching a specific environment or already have camo elsewhere in your kit.
