The trick to not freezing your arse off is in your boots, hands, cap, and a good fleece neck gaiter. Keep your extremities warm and your body will be fine with most jackets/pants on the market


That...and hunt where 40 degrees and no wind is considered frigid right? Sorry but this advice is not very accurate and could get someone hurt if they hunt somewhere other than 200 yards from a truck in optimal warm southern conditions.

With all Academy gear, you can be warm and safe in any north america climate........

I am not saying Sitka and others arent awesome, but it is not "needed" to be comfortable in cold weather

Jesus Christ. Buying Sitka has become a matter of life and death? I’m not telling anyone to wander off into the Rockies with nothing but a T-shirt and a gaiter. I’m simply pointing out that most people over look things like covering their neck, and wear boots that are way too tight. The little things can go a lot further than a 400 jacket.

You have no idea where or how I hunt, so quit trying to be a hardass.
