IMHO, none of that stuff really works...

I have had the best luck iwth regular Carhart Rain gear..

Thousands of mountain hunters all over the west and north must be wrong.

Carhartt rain gear is great but you'll never catch me hiking or hunting hard in it. I'd be more wet from the sweat than from the rain.
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

If you're thinking about the Frist Lite stormtight gear, you can save 25% at blackovis.com right now on certain items. Use the code FLITE25 at checkout. FYI, not all items are on sale but some are.

Thanks for the heads up on that.   :tup:

Second the Kuiu selection. You will pay a decent amount but it is well worth it in durability and quality. I have 2 sets one I use exclusively for hunting and the other for hiking and backpacking.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I always use goretex from a quality manufacturer, not off the cheap rack. Always stay dry and comfortable.
