Every body I’ve talked to that has it swears by it. I would like to have some but I haven’t been able to justify the price.

Ya might get more responses on this in the general forum, You might get better results asking this question at the country club, or safari forum. Probably not a huge aldeer base that actually drops that kinda coin on camo.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.

Love my Sitka fanatic jacket. I don’t have the light version of it and wish I did because the regular fanatic, I can only wear during the coldest mornings.
if God wanted me to be a vegetarian, he would have made shooting brussel sprouts more fun!

Take the Stratus set over the Fanatic Lite if at all possible. The Stratus is windproof and the Fanatic Lite is not. That's a deal breaker for me

Probably not a huge aldeer base that actually drops that kinda coin on camo. Im no rich guy and I have Kuiu, first lite, and sitka... I choose to spend on my hunting vs other things. Plus I quit dipping and that adds to my funds. I will admit, 95% of my hunting is active, not actively sitting. Oh, I do get discounts so, that makes a huge difference on what I purchase.

If you're going to buy Sitka (or KUIU, or First Lite) then spend the extra and get the windproof if available. Love my Sitka gear. Warm and comfortable.

Never fails to amaze me that folks will brag about dropping $1000-1500 on a rifle/scope that they'll be likely to shoot less than 10x a season but raise cane about spending $500 to keep them warm and on stand longer.

Some of the best money I've ever spent towards hunting was good boots and better clothing. Its great being able to stay out there in a tree when other folks are going home or huddled up in a shooting house

When I find anything that's better than what I have for warmth, quietness and wind/rain/cold-proof, I shift. I don't understand WTH anyone would intentionally be cold, wet or uncomfortable.

I have the fanatic lite jacket and bibs as well as the regular fanatic. Love both but if I had it to do all over again I wouldn’t buy the lite. Not a lot of situations where I’m wearing it. I find myself carrying it more than wearing because I get so hot walking to stand.

That's a deal breaker for me well I have some pretty good wind proof cold weather bibs and jacket. I'm looking at getting the 2x bibs ,jacket and a wind proof xl vest. I think it should perfect for bow hunting cold weather set up. 28° +

There's also Promotive. Camofire ran Sitka gear recently and "hunt of the day" has been running it as well. Just gotta hope they have your size.One GOOD place to get deals is the outlet stores on certain companies web sites. I look at the KUIU outlet weekly probably.

Makes them almost affordable with that discount. I bought a few pieces this year. Was gonn get fanatic bibs and jacket got the bibs, but they haven't had a jacket in the last two months and said they wasn't getting any till next spring so I bought a Celsius jacket last week.
