The Original Bug Pants Elite Edition are the perfect complement to The Original Bug Shirt for those who need full body protection from mosquitoes, ticks and other biting insects. This fantastic product reduces the need for reliance on chemical repellents.
Borne from the simple desire to continue exploring the outdoors during mosquito season, the Original Bug Shirt Company was devised in the summer of 1989. Since then, their garments have been revised and developed into highly effective and packable shields against biting insects, while production has remained with the same family-owned business in Canada.
Of course, not only will these garments protect you from the annoyance of insects and their bites, but they will also reduce the risk of contracting the diseases these pests can carry, like Lyme Disease, West Nile Virus and Malaria.
The Elite Edition Bug Pants are made from a lightweight yet extremely densely-woven fabric that mosquitoes and other insects simply cannot bite through.
They are deliberately cut long – when held up to your waist the ankle elastic should be touching the floor! This is so that even when fully bending your knees, the lower edge of the pants will remain tucked into your shoes, and not ride up to expose your ankles to bites. The waist is secured with a button closure, zipper fly, and elastic at the back, as well as having belt loops.
The unique elasticated ankle and stirrup positively protect the vulnerable ankle area from biting insects. These pants also feature reinforced knees, and cargo and hip pockets.
