Comfortable camo clothes that won't break the bank.
« on: June 28, 2014, 05:48:36 PM »
I'm looking for opinions on camo clothes. I have 2 pair of Sitka pants that I absolutely love. I want a couple full sets of camo and there is no way I'm paying what Sitka wants for a jacket. Other than the Kuiu clothes are there others out there that come even close as far as comfort goes that are less expensive?

As far as cost goes and how well it works. ImO cant beat Kings Camo. Atm its all I wear and comes in desert shadow for you eastern hunters or mountain shadow for you timber/western hunters like myself. For now. Its what Ill stick with.

PathfinderJR just bought a jacket from Kryptek and he likes it. 
I think that Sitka/Kuiu/Krypteck are all about equal.  I think I would just watch camofire and be ready if what you want pops up.  Shouldn't take long...

Camofire or buy used.

Check out Tusx as well. I haven't used it, but there is a member on here that has some, and seems to like it. It's a new company out of Australia, and the web site lists the prices in Aussie dollars, so I'm not sure about value.

I just checked the exchange rate, and it looks like $100 Aussie is about $94 US.

The web site is Tusxhunter.com

I'll echo what others have said about Core 4, have quite a bit of it from Camofire.com and really like it.  Like Smossy, I also wear a lot of King's camo and am very happy with it as well, love their camo patterns and find good sales on their website.  I'm also a fan of the microtex line from Cabela's and will buy it when it's on sale.

I was at Sportsman's Warehouse in Kennewick last night.  They had Kings jackets for $79.  I don't even need a new jacket and I almost bought one.  They were nice.

I use core4element off camofire. Well worth it but the rain gear, had to spray it down with water proofing stuff. But works awesome right now.

What side of state do you hunt and what kind of terrain. What kind of clothing are you going after cold or warm weather?

For dry hunting I can recommend the Microtex clothing from Cabelas.  It is quiet and comfortable and I like the outfitter camo as well.  It is almost always on sale on their website.

I am a tall guy 6'4"  long arms and long legs, even in stores I have seen a difference in size by brand.  How do you guys that order online figure out sizing?

Thanks HA!  I will look there now.

The Kings Camo site looked good, even had a nice package sale, but all their pants are 32" Inseam?

I am a new hunter, just getting my 1sty set, but it seemed really odd to not have over 32" or am I missing something?

You have to watch camofire but when pants come on you buy them the jacket will usually be up within a couple days!  I love the site
