    Is it worth it to go to a 0 degree SG Chilkoot bag?

    Where did you find the ISO ratings? I don't see those on their website. Thanks

    Rain Gear

    After my research mentioned above, I settled on the Sitka Delta Wading Jacket and have never been wet in it. At that time (6-7 years ago), there were limited options for 20,000mm rated jackets in suitable camo for duck hunting....now there are many other options.

    Rain Gear

    I'm not trying to hate on Columbia but after gettign soaked one day after a boat ride in a downpour in Drakes's "waterproof" Wader Jacket I did some research on Waterproof Ratings and discovered that Drake...and Columbia at least at that time Waterproof Jackets are rated to only 10,000 mm...

    Aerogel sleeping bags? Anyone tried one?

    The Sitka Kelvin Aerolite 30 Sleeping Bag uses Primaloft infused with Aerogel...different application thought than a layer of Aerogel itself as insulation.

    Sitka Kelvin Aerolite 30 Stuff Sack

    I have the long version and it stuffs well in both a 14L or a 10L depending on the shape you are going for and if you want to have extra room or not. It pretty much fills the 10L and packs down to a "sausage" about 7x13, whereas there is plenty of room left in the 14L and pack to more of a...

    Sitka zipper pulls

    It is slightly larger but close enough for me and a lot smaller than 550 cord.

    Sitka zipper pulls

    I bought some of this Type-1 single-strand paracord for that exact reason. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00LTXWNZC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

    Nemo First Light Bag in Nemo Clearance

    Does anyone have a verified weight (on a scale) on either the regular or long version? There are conflicting weight specs on the various sites. Thanks

    Nemo First Light Bag in Nemo Clearance

    Following...that seems like a screaming deal for the specs...maybe a little heavy compared to some other high-end zero deg bags though.

    Kuiu discount code

    KUIU offers a 10% Discount for Veterans...I think you have to call them to enroll (unless you can find the option on their website). You should also consider First Lite and Sitka....they both give a higher discounts than KUIU to Veterans. The Cipher pattern from First Lite is great for Waterfowl.

    Sawtooth question

    I’m not a first lite fanboy but I think it is important to distinguish between the 1st gen and 2nd gen sawtooths. The 1st gen has the shoulder and arm fit issues described earlier as well as stitching that easily tore...I sent that one back. Those issues were addressed in the 2nd gen. You know...

    Sawtooth question

    I don't have any experience with the Peloton but I understand that the 240 weight stuff is highly wind resistant. The Sawtooth is not wind resistant except on the chest and shoulders where it has the nylon shell. I think of the Sawtooth as a combination of a medium-weight merino like the Chama...

    Best "knee pad" pants?

    I remember seeing a post on here a while back where someone drilled several holes (around 1/2 inch I think) in the Timberline Knee Pads and he said that solution eliminated the sweaty knees.

    Ideal All-season Pant

    The Alpine pants did look attractive but what kept me from trying those is that reportedly that did hot have a DWR and they were not offered in a solid color. I hate to spend that much money on pants and then only be able to wear them hunting.

    Ideal All-season Pant

    I agree that Timberlines check a lot of the boxes. I actually bought a pair of Timberlines last year and modified them with hip vents in an attempt to stretch them in to warmer weather (Hell, Randy Newberg says he wears them no matter what animal or season he is hunting). Unfortunately life...

    Ideal All-season Pant

    I did not want to hijack the recent "One Pair of Pants" thread but this has me thinking (again) on what attributes would make the perfect all-around, all-season Pant. I am not sure the big clothing manufacturers are incentivized to make one pair of pants that could do it all....but just in case...
