deerpassion Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Merino wool cannot be beat. 100 times better than under armour and will keep you warm and DRY and will not smell even after wearing it for serveral days in the field.

RTGobbler Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 I do a tight moisture wicking poly from predator camo, followed by a heavy layer of minus33 wool. Very warm setup. On the way in, a few miles and very uphill I will just wear the poly, then throw everything else on at the stand.

Five Seasons Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 SFB10114 and got an extra 30% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caveman Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Go to your local army-navy surplus store and ask for the ECWCS base layer. It stands for extreme cold weather clothing systems. I got some for $40, both upper and lower. I can't remember the last time I was cold while hunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlammerhirt Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 mbucks27 Thanks for the link I just ordered a set. Paid 47.00 with shipping and tax after the 30% discount, deff worth a try at that price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKhunter Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I used them this weekend. I liked them. Not as thick as my under armor but it was more comfortable kept me dry, dried out quick and also did not retain odor. I'm happy about the purchase.

nycredneck Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Polypropylene first followed by heavy weight ( not mid-weight ) Minus 33 Merino wool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats too bad, try to save money but sometimes you get what you pay for. I got the heavy weight, it cost more but I have it and it will last.

DirtTime Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 Wow. I still use old fashined insulated long jon pants or lightweight sweat pants, and lightweight moisture which shirt I also use snowboarding. I need to get updated I guess.

I still use old fashined insulated long jon pants or lightweight sweat pants, and lightweight moisture which shirt I also use snowboarding. I need to get updated I guess. Me too. For the price I figured I'd give it a whirl. If not, my long johns have got me this far just fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five Seasons Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 got my sierra stuff the other day. For $40 I can't say i'm upset but the midweight stuff is really thin. Now I haven't worn it yet, but I can't imagine it's going to replace my long johns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubbataylor315 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Just pay the money for under armour it's best out there 2.0 3.0 an 4.0 a. I never get cold an u don't have to layer as much so ur way more comfort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diplomat019 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 i bought cabelas base layer. its like a brown fleece material. i love it. keeps me really warm and its comfortable as well. i don't have the under armour base layers, but going off of thither other products i can only imagine it is top notch.

Short Track Hunter Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I wear the Cabela's MT50 camo. It weighs like 35 lbs. But it keeps me warm. I just had to upgrade my boots from 400gm to 800gm, and my feet were just OK. Not as warm as I like. I should of went with the 1000 gram boots, but I'm not happy to be breaking in a new set of boots mid season. It was so cold today, I had to move around & couldn't sit in one spot for more than 2 hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbucks27 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) Had to put hand warmers in my boots today to to stay warm. Didn't do me any good though I only saw a small six and some does Lol. John Edited November 23, 2014 by mbucks27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ants Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Under Armor is tough to beat. Pricey but worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGobbler Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Still swear by the minus33 wool. When I have that on with some fleece the only thing cold is my feet, because my feet suck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
