What kind of hiking pants to you guys use for drysuit?
I have 3/4 SEA neoprene pants, but I can hardly imagine putting them on top of the suit. Putting them under the suit might work but I think the suit fabric will wear out very quickly.

:confused:
 
You may consider using a pair of strap-on hiking pants. I have used a pair of Mustos for a couple of years. They came from Layline. You can also check out the Magic Marine model at the APS website
 
I wear the short SEA hikers as a mid layer under my drysuit with a light capaline top and bottom as a base layer. It works great for air temps and water temps from about 30 up to around 60 if it's not very sunny sunny. Under about 40 degrees air temp I'll add a mid weight vest and have been warm enough down to 5-10 degrees air temp.
 
When its warmer, I use a pair of Sailing Angles hiking shorts. So this past weekend I decided to try them combined with the dry suit. And I think they worked inside the drysuit a lot better than outside.
