[QUOTE="Gatorgrizz27, post: 1134974, member: 64071"] Old thread but it's near the top. As far as quality/budget clothing, I'm a fan of Cabela's outfitter stuff. Never worn Sitka or Kuiu, but I'm not the type to spend $1,000 on an "outfit", unless it is a matter of life and death, for some guys I'm sure it is. I don't get to hunt enough to drop that kind of coin on clothes, and it is generally in the teens and up where I am. You do need several layers, but depending on the type of hunting you do, you may be able to get by with a base layer like under armour, a mid-weight fleece layer, and a heavy top layer with wind protection, plus rain gear if needed. Personally, I find it a pain in the *** to constantly be changing clothes to adjust to the weather, but it is often a fact of life. If you're going to be moving a lot with a pack on or in rough terrain, you better be a bit chilly when you start or you're going to be a sweat hog by the time you get where you're going. If you aren't as toasty as you could be when you get in your stand or sit down to glass for awhile, you're going to be chilled to the bone by hour 2-3. The Cabela's stuff doesn't have an athletic fit, and I wish it did, but it is warm, high quality, and affordable. They offer a range of thicknesses, water and wind proofing, etc. [/QUOTE]
