Saddle hunter clothing?

I am looking for saddle specific clothing, and was wondering what you guys are wearing. I like the cargo pockets in the front of the leg, and knee pads in the pants. The few makers of such clothing, don't seem to make them in my size (34" waist and 30" inseam). Any suggestions would be appreciated.
 
I love wearing bibs so I don't have to worry about the saddle riding on uncomfortably on my belt or any drafts from plumbers crack.
 
Bibs with pockets near the top work well for accessibility. However, it has to be cold enough for me to wear them.

I don't have any comfort issues with regular pants, but getting things out of a pocket can be difficult.

I have always worn military fatigues while hunting from tree stands and loved the cargo pockets but in a saddle most of my pants pockets are not accessible without a lot of movement. I've seen a couple of pants with cargo pockets in the front thigh area, and think that would work. Also like the idea of knee pads in the pants, but just want to hear for others on this matter.
 
I can't stand having things in my pockets anytime, but especially when hunting.
I've made a point to acquire as much extra ocp gear as I can when deployed or in general. I was able to score a 2 piece ocp flight suit, it's like wearing pajamas in the woods.
When I do need to buy stuff, I do my very best to find clearance first lite or Tru spec. . .
