You need to be more specific in your line of questioning. I.e. give temp ratings and altitude.

For warm weather hiking then I just wear generic Nike running shorts. If it gets cooler in camp then I will wear a pair of Capilene 1 or 3 (temp depending) while in camp on my legs.

In winter use my legs are: Capilene 3, Marmot Scree, Montbell UL inner down pants and a pair of down booties.

It really depends on your situation. Personally I woul never wear denim while hiking, but my FIL wouldn't go without his pair and is just fine in three season Colorado. In winter, I wouldn't even take him.
