For me it is a toss up between my Cabela's Waterfowl System's parka (Advantage Wetlands) and my Cabela's MTo50 Gore-Tex shell (Realtree woodlands).
Systems parka is Cordura outer shell with Gore-tex lining. The zip in liner is Thinsulate. I wear this all the time. Waterfowl, deer, blowing snow, even turkeys when it's really wet and raining. Tough as nails, a little noisy, but it's pressing 20 years old and just can't be worn out.
But...
My favorite has to be the MTo50 Gore-Tex rain shell. Super quiet, waterproof, windproof, breathes well, and just comfy as hell. It keeps my dry and warm when fishing, turkey hunting, great outer layer when deer hunting...keeps the wind off me. Packs down in to it's own pocket when I don't need it.
I've toyed with the idea of getting a new waterproof / breathable shell...but this jacket just keeps on performing. And it's gotta be close to 20 years old as well.
So what's your best piece of hunting clothing?
