Best piece of gear.......period

[MtnMuley]

With all the drama threads lately, let's start a thread about quality, top notch, hunting gear. Name the pieces of gear that you feel can't be beat, and to you,  are unarguably the best in their class.

I'll start.  Kifaru meat baggies for hauling out boned out meat and TightSpot quivers. Both unbeatable........

For me....I'm very very impressed with my kuiu ultra 1800 pack... the combination of simplicity, versatility, and durability make it a true year round pack for me

Sitka 90 percent pants.

Filson guide waterfowl sweater. The one made in the US. I burned a huge hole in the back of mine this year. Trying to find a replacement but they don't make them anymore.

Sitka 90 percent pants.

Really?  My 2014 version isn't hardly water resistant.  Seems like any fleece or wool would be as warm and dry.  Maybe you have 2013 version?

I have not noticed water intrusion but hunting pheasant in S. Dakota with wind chill at -23 I was extremely impressed and not cold at all.  The Sitka pants with one layer of merino wool pants and I was golden when most others were frigid cold.  I do recall a little dampness after sitting a couple hours thawing up the frozen ground beneath my rear in the NE corner during late deer.  In reality I have not really put them to the waterproof test.  I do believe they are 2013 since I got them on camofire during the 2014 season.  Didn't they sell to Gore-Tex?

I drank the premium clothing coolaid and bought a buttload of it after this last season. The weather was so crazy with the highs and lows and wind this year that I just "F it" and bought a bunch of gear. I was sick of being hot and soaked with sweat and then freezing in the afternoon when the temps dropped. God forbit it rained! We all know what happens to cotton when it's cold windy and rainy. I bought Sitka, Kuiu, First Lite. I simply cannot believe how comfortable the Attack and Ascent pants are. It's just crazy to me. Then there's first lite with their wool!!! If your skeptical, don't be. All of these companies products are amazing and I'd definately recommend starting with at least a pair of the pants from either one of them. You'll be hooked. I guarantee it.
