I am sure that those companies make fine products, but the key to staying warm is layering. you dont need expensive gear to stay warm, even in the coldest of conditions.


I’m a believer in layering as well, but the issue is being too constricted by too many layers on extremely cold mornings. It was in the low 20s here in Arkansas this past weekend, and I had 5 layers on on top and was still cold:
- undershirt
- long john shirt
- fleece mock turtleneck
- fleece pullover
- Drake eqwader pullover coat/jacket

If I can replace 2 or even 3 of those layers in order to move better, sign me up.

I may look into the First Lite stuff, but I also really like what I’ve seen from UA on the hunting front.

In all probability these two layers you would've been better off without to begin with. Cotton is the absolute worst thing you can wear next to skin in cold weather. With any activity at all you will sweat at least some and those two layers of cotton will trap that moisture next to your skin

the old UA cold gear wasn't high quality but i swear by the 4.0's, i used to layer the thermals but this eliminated all that for me personally
