What are you wearing this morning to keep warm? I have on several layers and It’s tolerable. Could have stood to put on one more but not sure I could have moved enough to shoot if I needed to.


Workin for the man, huntin when I can.

First Lite. Never thought I would spend that kind of money on hunting clothes.

It ain't about how much you wear it's what you wear and where you put it.
Everybody is different in what it takes to stay warm you just have to figure out your system.
Big key is not wear so much that you sweat walking in.
For me I start out with a merino base layer and socks then a insulating layer. Then my outer clothes usually when its below 35 I pack my coat and bibs in and put them on when I get situated

2 layers of Under Armour underneath my Nomad coat and pants. I’m warm as can be!!! Nomad is highly underrated on its warmth and comfort compared to Sitka and some of the other brands that are 3-4x the price…watch Nomad’s website for their end of season sale. I bought this whole suit I’m wearing today for under $150 with shipping included

The key I found is you want a base layer that will wick moisture, mid layer that is an insulating material and your outer layer is considered your protection layer ex. Wind and water proof. A good warm hat, face mask/ neck gaiter, gloves. I also found that my feet would sweat in my boots when I was making the drive from home to the land I would be hunting. I started to wear tennis shoes when driving. Lastly I usually put my outer layer on when I got to where I was going to hang my stand. Worked for me in Iowa winter.

I read on aldeer about wearing wool socks. I tried it yesterday and couldn’t tell it made any difference. My feet still got a little cold.

I did notice that when I took my boots off my feet didn’t stink and were dry, so wool didn’t make my feet sweat.

AUDeerhunter, which Nomad set do you have? I have the Harvester set and the Barrier NXT set. While the Harvester stuff is warm and windproof it ain't enough for mornings like today. The Harvester stuff is Berber fleece lined but is not insulated. Nomad didn't have an insulated outer layer (late season) line of clothes this year like in years past with the Cottonwood and Conifer series. They didn't/don't have any bibs this year either except for one set in waterfowl line of clothes.

Duofold heavy base layer, Sitka stratus pants, Sitka fanatic hoody and, sitka fanatic jacket. I am toasty. Worth every penny.

I get tired of looking like the Michelin man this time of year. I got the Wooltimate top from Cabela’s. Berber fleece bottoms from Cabela’s. I’ve made it ok. Fingertip been cold all morning. Toes a tad cool now.

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

Mickey Mouse boots are your best friend. They are super heavy, but you can step over them in water and your feet will still stay warm. Best boot I have ever owned for keeping your toes from freezing off. Nothing else even comes close.
