As to ops question, I wear gorka almost everytime im out, I love the pants due to the tick guard that goes down in the boots. The fabric is very loose so it makes getting around in easy and cool, with plenty of room for additional layers beneath. It has two layers of fabric where it counts, knees, arms, ass, etc. Ive never had any issues with noise, and for $130 for both the suit and the pants Id say what your getting is well worth the price.
However I do wish it had more blowout protection.
