It has to be REALLY cold for me to wear cold gear but it works good. I wear the heat gear shirts as undershirts playin softball. This last year I found that the heat gear bottoms worked really well for me in the warmer weather of general rifle season under wool pants. I got the benefits of the wool pants without overheating.

O.K so I seem to be the odd man out. The cold gear hasn't been very effective for me. It feels like the cold transfers right through the UA garmet. Maybe due to the fact that it fits so tight against the skin? A good quality, medium weight loose fitting pair of polypro longjohns seem to do a better job of keeping me warm. Just my  :twocents:

I swear by UA Loose fitting heat gear.  I am a heavy sweating person and the UA gear has been a godsend.  One thing I've learned though, the material wicks moisture ONE WAY.  I hang dry my UA shirts when I wash them, and if they're not right side out, they take forever to dry....

I use cold gear and heat gear. I like both. The cold gear works best as an underlayer. I usually strip down to my shorts after hunting to put on other clothes for driving and while in camp. When it is near zero with the wind blowing and just wearing the cold gear, the wind goes right through, but with a layer over it, everything is fine.
Remember to get one size larger than you usually wear. If you are not used to compression clothing, it can be irritating. UA also has looser fitting shirts.
And yes it is pricey, but if you hunt by yourself like I do, you try not to take chances with inferior clothing should you get stuck out in the middle of nowhere.
Years ago I was elk hunting with the wrong clothing and my coat and pants all froze solid. It is very uncomfortable hiking wearing boards.
Gathering is easy. Hunting is a challenge.

UA's new Speed proto shoes work out great for training!  I would recommend them all the way!

Also - I just got the new scent tech line of clothing from them!  It's not available to the public yet but when it is - get it!  Stuff is awesome and looks like it will be the ticket!  Cool part is, it's not activated by carbon so no hot dryer action needed!
