I'm looking at the Sitka Fanatic and the Kryptek Aegis systems. I'm worried that they will not be warm enough for me in the late-season Mid-Michigan days that can get close to 0 degrees. I tend to get cold very easily and wanted to make sure that with a few layers I could survive in these clothes. I've read that the Kryptek is waterproof, but that's not a big deal for me in 10 degree snow - and in the 30 degree rainy days I have good rainwear that I can use.
I recently purchased a couple layers from First Lite: Allegheny, Chama QZ, Llano, Kanab pants, North Branch Jacket, and the Boundary Stormtight Jacket (will buy pants when they come back in stock!) The First Lite gear fits me amazingly well. I also plan on picking up a Puffy and want to find an insulating bottom layer too.
Has anyone tried the First Lite Sanctuary Jacket, and if so how does it compare to the Fanatic and Aegis?
I would like the cold weather gear to be sized properly to wear with a few layers underneath to be as versatile as possible, Michigan can sometimes vary 50 degrees Late-Season.
Thank you guys for the wealth of knowledge on this website! I've probably spent hours in the past few weeks searching and reading just about everything I can.
Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated, and I will be submitting reviews for all the First Lite gear I have been wearing after a few more hunts!
