Why should I not wear jeans when I go camping?
If I don't where am i supposed to clip my knife scabbard?
I'm serious I'm new here
All jeans are pants, not all pants are jeans
More breathable water resistant options exist that you can still attach your knife fedora to

I don't like jeans because they're restrictive when scrambling and climbing rocks and junk. Also if theres 5 minutes of sudden rain, you can enjoy being wet for a day and a half. Why couldn't you put your knife on other pants?

Can't you just go pantsless until they dry? It wouldn't be like you set out to go naked so I don't think you can get in trouble.

are there some affordable water resistant pants out there? like outdoorsy legit lightweight pants that aren't $80 ?

If I didn't need the pants in the first place, I wouldn't have worn them. I could go pantsless and just deal with bugs and tall grass and branches and wind and cold temps, but I'd rather just wear some water resistant quick drying pants.

Rei brand during a sale. Won't cost much more than a pair of jeans. Ignore the Rei haters on here.

Is there a Decathlon in your country?
I own 200 Euro Haglofs pants and 35 Euro Decathlon pants. I prefer the Decathlon ones.

You can wear jeans, and it's not a huge deal, but if you're going somewhere hot or wet they can be pretty uncomfortable. They are not very breathable, and once they get wet, they take a long time to dry and will cling and chafe like a motherfucker until they do, and if it's cold and wet, it will really suck because cotton has zero to negative insulation value when wet. Their main virtues are that they're cheap, durable, and RELATIVELY fire resistant compared to synthetic, as in they won't melt if they get a spark on them or something (They won't save you if you jump into a fire or whatever).
I personally would go synthetic or wool, and generally you can find pants made from those materials that will have belt loops so you can wear a belt and sheath like you want. I, for one, think that wool is the best (even on hot days; wool comes in a variety of ways of being spun. The scratchy type is nice for heat, but you can get a much more finely spun type of fabric that'll be breathable and cool). It retains most of its insulative properties when wet, and is relatively durable. However, wool, especially super primo merino wool can be expensive, but it can be worth the investment. However this is not to shit on synthetic. Synthetic can be durable if it's made well and it dries ridiculously fast, and is usually a bit cheaper than wool.
But in all honesty, wear what you want. No one is going to see you in jeans and think, "what a loser," unless there is another reason to think so. Do what's within your preference/price range.

Here is a glossary of types of wool, but you really don't need to know all of them, but maybe it'll be useful to you, IDK.
