Upland Hunting Pants | Briar & Brush-Resistant Pants for Bird Hunters
When you're following your dog through nasty cover, our durable hunting pants deliver the mobility you need with the briar protection you trust.

Get serious hunting pants for bird shooting that you can trust for dynamic hunts and challenging terrain.
The Cottonsuede® Layers - Stealth Gear Redefined
The genius behind our silent hunting trousers lies within the groundbreaking Cottonsuede® fabric architecture. This ingenious "sandwich" construction nestles pure cotton against your skin whilst the brushed polyester exterior spawns millions of sound-absorbing microfilaments.
This proprietary technology transforms stalking dynamics entirely. Move through the densest bramble thickets without betraying your presence to sharp-eared birds. The results speak volumes: even the most battle-hardened cock pheasants remain oblivious to your approach.
Yet this stealth advantage never compromises structural integrity. Our pants laugh off the most savage thorn assaults and razor-sharp branches that define challenging European terrain.
Weatherproofing Mastery - Conquering the Elements
Every seasoned hunter faces this eternal dilemma: achieving complete weather protection without creating a portable sauna. Our revolutionary dual DWR coating (Durable Water Repellent) conquers this complex engineering challenge.
Strategically positioned side ventilation openings complete this ingenious climate control system. When temperatures soar, they channel away perspiration efficiently. During sudden downpours, the DWR treatment causes water to dance across the surface without penetration.
I tested them myself during a torrential morning in the Highlands, the kind where the rain doesn’t let up for a second. After three hours of non-stop downpour, I checked inside: bone dry. That moment alone sold me. For long autumn hunts, especially up north, these pants are a genuine game-changer.
Engineering Excellence - Features Born from Experience
The Tactical Pocket Arsenal
Engineered for hunters who demand speed, silence, and total gear control, the XPR Silent Hunting Pants deliver a pocket system that’s more than storage: it’s a mission-ready toolkit.
- Precision-engineered cartridge holders: accommodating both rifle and shotgun ammunition
- 2 magnetic cargo pockets: lightning-fast cartridge access without betraying zip noise
- Dual smartphone pockets: ultimate protection meets instant accessibility
- Integrated knife/torch compartments: secure storage within each cargo pocket
- Reinforced back compartment: purpose-built for wallets and hunting records
Silvergear® Anti-Odour Technology - Stay Undetected, Even Downwind
Hillman's Silvergear® coating harnesses the natural antibacterial power of silver ions to eliminate odours before they even have a chance to form. Sweat, bacteria, and body scent are neutralised at the molecular level: without chemicals, perfumes, or washing cycles.
Unlike conventional odour-masking treatments that fade over time, Silvergear® offers durable, long-lasting protection, keeping your gear fresher and your scent trail virtually undetectable, even on back-to-back hunts.
Movement Without Compromise
The revolutionary Beltlock® closure system renders traditional belts obsolete. Eliminate hip pressure during marathon walks and prevent slippage during explosive movements.
The adjustable ankle regulators ensure a snug fit around any type of footwear, adapting instantly to changing conditions in the field. This means no more flapping cuffs or snagging hems - just silent, streamlined performance when it matters most.
Hillman's Durable Game Shooting Pants for European Gamebirds
XPR Silent Game Hunting Pants - The Apex Predator
Our flagship model embodies decades of Hillman innovation. These pants deliver:
- Silvergear® anti-odour technology: crucial for extended stalking sessions
- European-specific ergonomic construction: tailored for Continental physiques
- Integrated belt system: delivering rock-solid support
- Precision-placed dual ventilation openings: strategic airflow management
European bird hunters praise the acoustic stealth of these trousers when stalking pheasants and partridges, while woodland hunters admire their bramble-defying resilience through thick undergrowth.
The Cottonsuede® fabric reaches its full potential here. Where conventional synthetics create vegetation-alerting friction, these pants ghost through bracken and heather like morning mist. The XPR bird shooting trousers come in sizes S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, and 4XL.
XPR Silent Camo Hunting Trousers - Phantom Camouflage
The XPR hunting pants are also available in camo. They are purpose-built for woodland stalkers and ambush hunters who rely on blending in and staying silent. The advanced camouflage disrupts your outline in dense foliage and underbrush, making you nearly invisible to prey. And just like the solid version, you keep every bit of the same comfort, stealth, and rugged durability. Perfect for driven game specialists and hunters seeking brush-resistant pants for European gamebirds.
European Gamebird Mastery - Continental Sporting Excellence
European uplands harbour the world's most diverse gamebird populations. From common pheasant to elusive black grouse, each species demands tactical precision when wearing proper game hunting pants for bird shooting.
Pheasant & Partridge: The Noise Test
In open fields and hedgerows, one misstep sends pheasants or partridges sky-high. The XPR’s silent fabric gives you a fair shot: no rustle, no warning, just focus and fire. Even when threading through stubble or brambles, they stay dead quiet and snag-free.
Woodcock: The Waiting Game
You don’t find woodcock. They find you, if you’re still and silent enough. These pants keep your movement whisper-quiet and your body dry through hours of motionless patience. Perfect for cold dawns in the woods when silence is your only ally.
Ducks & Geese: The Swamp Shuffle
From damp marshes to riverside blinds, waterfowl hunting demands flexibility and noise control. The XPR fabric sheds moisture, stays quiet, and adapts with every crouch or shift. Even soaked ground or sudden movements won’t betray your position.
Grouse: The Speed Drill
On the moors, you need gear that moves as fast as they flush. Lightweight and breathable, these trousers won’t slow you down or give you away. You’ll move freely through heather and scree with nothing to snag or flap.
Turkey: The Final Test of Stealth
Sharp-eyed and paranoid, a wild turkey will spot or hear the smallest twitch. With XPR’s silent tech and camo concealment, you’re finally on even ground. When every breath and branch matters, these pants give you the edge.
Expert Insights - Your Questions Answered
Can I use the XPR pants in both summer and autumn?
Yes, the breathable cotton-suede construction and side vents make them ideal from warm early season to chilly autumn mornings. They regulate body temperature exceptionally well and dry quickly when wet from sweat or mist.
How silent are these pants for bird hunting?
The outer fabric absorbs sound, while the inner cotton lining eliminates friction noise - perfect for game birds with sharp hearing, like pheasant or woodcock. Even during fast-paced drives through bramble or maize, they stay whisper-quiet.
Are these pants fully waterproof or just water-resistant?
The XPR Pants are water-resistant, designed to handle light to moderate rain thanks to their dual DWR coating and moisture-wicking structure. For full waterproof protection during heavy downpours or swamp terrain, switch to Hillman's 5WL Pants and Jacket.
Are the pockets suitable for shotgun and rifle ammo?
Yes, each cargo pocket includes integrated holders for both rifle and shotgun cartridges, along with compartments for a knife or flashlight. The magnetic closures offer silent and instant access, even with gloves on.
Do they come in a camouflage version?

Refer to the size chart for waist and inseam measurements. If it doesn’t fit, Hillman offers easy exchanges until you find your perfect size. You can also contact our team directly, and we’ll help you choose based on your gear layering needs.
What other Hillman gear pairs well with the XPR pants?
