Are these warmer than a lightweight base layer?

Yes. The heavyweight Raschel knit traps more heat than light thermals, so they suit cold, low-output days better than sweaty activity.

Can I wear them for high-output activity like hiking?

They work, but the heavy knit breathes less than lighter layers. Many wearers overheat on steep climbs and switch to a midweight layer.

Do they have a fly or fly opening?

The description does not specify a fly. Treat them as a pull-on base layer.

How should I wash them?

Machine wash cold with like colors and tumble dry low. Avoid fabric softener, which can reduce moisture wicking.

Do they work under jeans or waders?

Yes. The fitted ankles slide under outer pants, though the heavy knit adds bulk under slim-fitting jeans.

Our take on the Realtree Men's Heavyweight Thermal Base Layer Pant

These are men's heavyweight thermal base layer pants in a Raschel knit that traps heat for cold-weather layering. The fabric wicks moisture and is odor-resistant, and a tag-free label keeps the waistband comfortable. Fitted ankles let them slide under outer pants without bunching. They suit hunters, campers and anyone working outdoors in the cold who wants a warm first layer rather than a bulky midlayer. Against lighter base layers they run warmer but less breathable, so they are best for low-output cold days rather than hard sweaty activity.
