$200 for some sewn in knee pads, spandex, and a padded waist? I don't think so. Now I would happily pay $200 if they came in that camouflage like the predator that makes you almost invisible, I'd even pay the $750 that the Arcteryx sphinx pants cost.
Basic cotton canvas and ripstop nylon have served the greatest military in the world for over half a century, before that real men fought (and won) in wool. I'll admit that even I may be getting a bit softer by adding some neoprene knee pads to my 5.11s, but I am not soft enough to spend $200 on one single pair of pants. Just my opinion
