I have to agree with him on one point, watch some of their clothing on E-bay and they go for lots of money. I watched some before i went on a trip to Idaho two years ago and the used jacket still went for $400.00 +. i am glad i bid on it because it ended up being 50 degrees every day, peoplr pay crazy money money for it.

I can get by just fine if I have to with $10 military surplus wool pants and a $5 shirt from Goodwill. Hell will freeze over before I buy anything from King of the Mountain. I'm sure it's nice stuff, but I'd have to win the lottery first before I'd even consider it.

I would like to get a review from someone who actually wears this stuff just out of curiosity? I mean is it really that good or is it like buying a set of LL Been waders, lol

I have wanted a Pendelton wool shirt for years and could never justify the price over standard fleece.

I am real

I just checked the Filson website and their virgin wool shirts are $140.  That is a lot of money too, but it is a hell of a lot less than that King of the Mountain stuff.  Filson makes some really good clothing too.  I'm not sure if they are still made in Seattle though.

To expensive for my blood!

However the cost of an item is what the market will sustain.  In other words people are paying the price so more power to the company.  They do not have a monopoly on the camo market so I don't have a problem with them charging whatever floats there boat.  Myself I'll stick to what works for me and cheaper.

I wish I could afford it.  But, a whole outfit is about 7 trips to the Potholes, and I already stay warm.

Damn, for that price it better be delivered by a curvy, blond intern with no gag reflex. 

I suppose if you have the money to burn go for it, but I have better things to spent it on.

i got a fmaily member that gets alota hunting clothes from good will and we give him $@#% for it till we started realizing some of that stuff was better than ours . i hunted in bad weather with military wool pants till prob 16, i still got em too

better have hot and cold running whores for that price

no whores please, we want fresh girls for that money thanks.

Oh, lord.

I am concerned that if anyone does pipe in on this thread about how great of a product it is that they will get chastized just for buying the stuff.   

I am very intrigued, but not intrigued enough to purchase.  i don't think I can justify spending the same on a pair of pants as I would a rifle.  I haven't been able to bite the bullet for Sitka pants yet, so I am sure that I am not up 2 or 3 price tiers from there.

Maybe someday when money is no object we can go down this path and support King Cavalier II.

saw this shirt posted on 24hour for sale and had to look it up.325 for a shirt  i pay some high prices for my sitka stuff but its water proof, wind proof and warm. as far as i can tell this is a shirt  any of you guys seen these before?

Hmmmm .325 is 32 and a half cents, pretty cheap in my book

The one thing I'll say about King of the Mountain (or Sleeping Indian Designs) is that it's a once-in-a-lifetime investment.  Just don't get fat 

It's high-grade stuff for sure but personally, I only wear wool in late season treestands anymore or possibly still-hunting in cold, rainy weather.  I just get too dang hot in any other situation.

I am already fat - so If I buy at my biggest, I should only have t worry about getting skinny.

bow4elk - do you own King of the Mountain stuff - is it truly a once in a lifetime investment?

Geezus!  You guys are a bunch of cheap asses!    

Wish I could afford that stuff!  I worked for a guy in the early 90's who had the complete outfit.  He then had owned the stuff for about 5 years.  I think he paid about that much for it back then.  He passed away a couple years ago but as far as I know he was still using the same stuff. 

From what I have been told it lives up to it's reputation and price tag.
