Meet the mid-layer inspired by the most fanatic hunters among us; those die-hards whose decades-long passion and breadth of experience drive them out of the blind and into the elements with the hope of how great the reward might be; who do far more than welcome a challenge, they live to embrace it. That’s precisely who Muddy had in mind when creating the new DV8-branded apparel lineup, a complete camouflage layering system designed to see hunters through every fair-weather day and wicked wintry moment experienced in the field all season long. Like you, items in this series sacrifice and expend what they must, thriving on every opportunity to fight Mother Nature in all her extremes— whether she’s at her most gracious or harshest and most unpredictable. Items like the DV8 Clutch Pants.

Made from a double-weave, 4-way stretch material for a flexible fit that allows a full range of motion and rated for wear in temperatures from 50°F to 85°F, you can depend on this all-purpose, early-season bottom layer to perform when the temperature rises. From their antimicrobial treatment that kills odor- causing bacteria and reduces human scent, to the side vent zippers, these pants help hunters stay calm, cool, and covert during critical moments afield—preventing the development of game-spooking odors that can occur during warm-weather hunts and releasing body heat through extended all-day sits. For extra protection, these pants feature breathable, UPF 50-rated fabric that blocks harmful UV rays and a water-resistant coating that easily handles light rain and damp conditions, offering multiple layers of defense. Additionally, their streamlined tapered-leg design and articulated knees allow unrestricted movement, making it easy to hike, climb over obstacles, kneel, or stalk through the trees. Oversized zippered cargo pockets securely hold phones and essential gear, while a reinforced pocket for knives adds durability and provides quick access to your hunting tools. Clutch.
