Go somewhere where it is really cold. It is worth every penny.

Good stuff, but overkill for what most people need. I'd say on a multiday hunt in cold, damp weather it would be he exact thing you need. Light gear that does what it's supposed to do.

Well that's great. It looks like pure old dog shite and that pixelated camo was proven not to work overseas. The pentagon even admitted it was a waste of millions of dollars.
Did I mention it looks like doodoo?

I have the Delta Jacket. I like it a lot. I use it as a rain jacket for task other than hunting.

Most camo does.
I usually wear Helly Hansen. Not camo, not fashionable but keeps me dry and warm.

I bought one of the Traverse T's after the season last year because I found it on sale for $50.
OK lightweight shirt but nothing special.
No way I would pay the $129 I see them for now.

Roger, you try any of the First Lite merino wool stuff? I bought some misc. articles and that stuff is awesome.
Most of the Sitka Waterfowl is geared towards more northern areas. I feel most of the clothing would be way too hot for southern LA (where I hunt). Not sure where the OP is located.

I get the Paradox stuff at COSTCO, its a blend. Stuff is awesome and about half the price of brand names.

I have some and it's great, don't pay full price though

A sales rep tried to give me a full outfit but I told him I would prefer to freeze to death than be caught in a suit of Sitka clothing. It's just not who I am. If I were to spend large amounts of money on that type of thing I think my persona would fit better to a brand like Filson.
(I don't own any of that high priced stuff either)

My brother does, and he says the gloves and beanie he has from them are worth every penny.

You're referring to the Army and Air Force digi cam uniforms, the stuff the Marine Corps uses works pretty well until they get all salty.

I'm a gear queer, so yes I have some Sitka. Hell, it's even on the front seat of my truck
