who makes hunting clothes for tall guys on the cheap?
« on: April 06, 2013, 10:15:33 AM »
well i have my bow pretty well set up so it is time to start looking at other stuff to make my hunting adventures more successful and enjoyable.
i currently have multicam bdu gear.i like the pattern and it is very durable.my issue with it is it is not very quiet.also it soaks up rain like nobodies business.
i am aware i am most likely going to have to get some early and late season gear,i think my multi cam bdus will suffice for early season as thy did last year.and with the price of the high quality hunting clothes i think i would be best suited to start building a late season setup first.
what do you guys wear?i see a lot of fleece and think this would be the way to go for late season.
problem i have is i am 6 ft 6 with a 34 inch waist so i am hard pressed to find gear that fits well.
is there some cheaper light and quiet early season gear i could be looking at?i am willing to shell out the coin for longer lasting better suited equipment but do not want to blow money where it is not needed.
any help would b much appreciated.

6'4" here. Cabelas has a good assortment of tall sizes in various price ranges.

" 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

Try the bargain cave at Cabelas.  Just have to visit every now and then and you'll find good deals--in the month after Xmas especially.

Cabelas has the best selection of tall gear that I have found, not the cheapest, but they have the best selection I have found.

Not the best for the skinny folks, but I love bigcamo.com. I have also had good luck bass pro shops too.

Im only 6'2", but have the same problem. I wish companies would make a medium tall but they don't. Cabelas is the best place, most large talls fit me ok. And you can try on most their gear before you buy it.
