Firstlite! Son of a gah!!!

[KFhunter]

I thought they were US made 


       


I should have done my homework, tags all say made in china

[Karl Blanchard]

None of the hunting brand clothing is made in the USA

Haven’t picked up any of forloh’s gear yet but am interested and hope they succeed.

Wow, that might be a game changer!


I just did a few miles in the FL and it is nice stuff for sure.

[KFhunter]

Check out mah new digs, best I've ever had by a mile.

Hopefully the quality has gotten better, it’s nice out of the package, but falls apart in no time.  I’ve sent a few things back from first lite.

[KFhunter]

Yeah for sure, had a nut drop out the bottom of my redrock boxers inside of 20 miles!

(but it was a nice 20 miles  )

I've purchased three sets of their boxer shorts. Guess I'm a slow learner. Each pair had the crotch blow out inside of two years. Mind you they only got worn during hunting season, never for day to day use. After the third pair started showing holes after the first season I got ahold of them. Explained my issue and reminded them that I have a lot of money in my closet with FL logo on them. They could have cared less.

Bought two sets of merino boxers last season from CamoFire for less than half the price and plenty happy with them so far. No holes in the crotch yet. I have had good luck with their shirts, pants and puffy's. But I'm starting to look at alternatives.

As a side note: We're going to pay a hefty price for purchasing items from China. It's difficult at best to find USA clothing or anything for that matter. Kinda insane that FL and others can charge those kinds of prices for stuff made in China (and elsewhere).

From my observations, First Lite is famous for crappy seams. I’ll continue getting my stuff elsewhere

Dayone camouflage is made in the USA.
Nice stuff, and super quite

Mine lasted 13 days!

I've had great luck with Firstlite and they've been very responsive.
I'm not a huge fan of merino except for socks...That might have something to do with it.
Firstlite fits much better than the Kuiu/Sitka/otherstatuslabels for those of us under 6' with stocky builds.

[Wolfdog2314]

I like most all my first lite gear. Especially the merino base layers and Chamberlin puffy. But for pants and rain gear I am sticking with kuiu. Much better fit in the pants and the chugach rain gear has done be solid.

[phildobaggins]

I've also had dang good luck with FL. I love their base/mid layers and their support has always been good to me. I had some Corrugate Guide pants (which are awesome pants by the way), that I felt like the coloring was "off" on them. They had another pair mailed out the next day and sent me a label to ship the others back.
