I have a old Duofold top I can’t wear unless I’m in a stand and 20 degrees. That thing is the best top I’ve ever had for warmth. Probably 30 years old



I’ve been wearing duofold for years. It’s not wool or anything fancy but it does the trick for me.


Here's to champagne for my real friends and real pain for my sham friends.

As far an everything else I wear wool base with Sitka Sratus for the wind Down to about 40 then add a down puffer down in the 30’s. Anything colder and I wear Sitka Fanatic. Yes the stuff is expensive but It’s good.

Sitka fanatic is probably the best investment I’ve made for hunting other than my rifle. I paid around $800-$900 for it six years back and it shows no sign of wearing out. Keep your base layers free from sweat and toasty you will be




I don't want to pass quietly into the night. I want to slide in sideways kickin and screamin

Usually, my feet are what gets cold. I drank coffee to keep my feet warm. Once I figured that out, I’ve been good ever since.

I guess the two best things I've done to stay warm is get the hand warmer muff

and the Arctic Shield insulated boot covers.

Wear crocks I know or socks while driving then change my socks when I walk and get to where I’m going kinda of a pain to do but if my feet get to cold I’m done. Layers and a fleece jacket and pants

This setup has always worked on the coldest of mornings for me:
1. Merino wool socks - 1 pair
2 Thermal top/bottom - Walmart
3. Chamois pant
4. Hooded sweatshirt
5. Insulated coveralls
6. Shooting mittens
7. Neck gaiter
8. Toboggan
9. LaCrosse 800 or 1000 gram insulated boots

**Carry coveralls until you get to your stand. Don’t put on the neck gaiter or toboggan until you get settled in your stand, on the ground, or in a shooting house.

Heck, this morning was pretty moderate without any wind.

Today I wore merino wool base, a heavyweight fleece base on top over the merino, a wool knit sweater, and Sitka stratus outer layer. Plus normal cotton socks and uninsulated hiking boots. Brought wool gloves and neck gaiter but never put them on.

2 rubber bands and 2 hot hands will keep your feet warm on the seriously cold days. Just slap a rubber and and hand warmers on toe of boot once you get where you are going. Looks funny but works surprisingly well and is a cheap fix.

I use Huntworth heavy and mid weight fleece. Love their stuff. The heavy stuff is very similar to the old bass pro expedition windproof fleece.
