Fatigue/Baker pants in fabrics other than sateen?
I've been on a surplus kick lately, have a pair of green OG 107 pants from the 60s on the way in. I love Baker pants, I'd like to get a couple pairs with more texture. What would you recommend for fatigues in something like wool, moleskin, corduroy, etc?

I think orslow has done some in other fabrics at times, although I'm not sure there are any current releases in other fabrics. Just as an example: https://www.witheredfig.com/products/orslow-slim-fit-fatigue-pants-beige-stretch-corduroy?variant=39992274845751¤cy=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&srsltid=AfmBOooghvJolf0WWds-v_ownO4XQsIefh6VxpA8HcsoQlyFgKdKIa9qCCE

Slim Fit Fatigue Pants - Beige Stretch Corduroy
New for this season is the orSlow Slim Fit Fatigue Pants in a lovely Beige Stretch Corduroy. These have a bit of stretch to them, so they make for a more comfortable pair of pants than their standard fatigues.
Universal Works do quite a lot of different fabrics and can be had fairly cheap on the second hand market. I have some moleskin from them that are nice.
EG has done fatigues in tons of different fabrics and routinely does cord. Again often fairly good prices secondhand. I have cord, wool herringbone.
Engineered garments makes them in plenty of materials: ripstop, moleskin, etc. Also orslow.
EG has them in twill. Sage De Cret has awesome Baker pants in hemp. Those are my favorites.
