I have several sets of higher end brands like Kuiu and Arcteryx but I still tend to prefer my CF issue, pre-GoreTex wind pants. Inexpensive and easily found at an Army Surplus shop. They looked like regular combat pants in OD but were a heavier material and had a looser cut. They are great kit over a set of fleece in the cold. Not waterproof but wash them in Tech Wash then spray them with Scotch Guard for some extra water repellency. The current CF issue GoreTex versions may also be available but they are heavy, do not breathe, and shred easily.
