Hello all.
I'm looking for an insulated vest similar to the discontinued Cabelas Outfitter Berber Fleece, but without the Windshear lining. For those not familiar, it is a very thick and puffy fleece that zips up and is athletic cut. We're talking it's just under an inch thick without pinching it tight. I have their 1/4 zip pullover hoodie and it is incredibly warm. I use it as an outer layer for stand hunting when it's not raining since it's roomy (XL). I can't wear it for spot and stalk or long walks to the stand as i will over heat quickly. I believe that windshear lining doesn't breathe too well.
Anyway... i borrowed a buddies vest in the same brand one season and used it to walk in to the stand. Once on stand, i put the hoodie over it and remained toasty warm. I've offered him more $ than he paid for it and he won't bite.
I can be flexible on the color. It doesn't HAVE to be camo, but no bright colors. I'm not interested in a down filled or a puffy.
Any suggestions???
Thanks in advance.
Will
