First lite is miles ahead of under armor. They just didn't have the benefit of eloquent marketeers.
But, they have a far superior product.


I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.

Under Armor Cold Gear thermals, then fleece mid-layer. FYI, if you buy fleece mid-layer pants that are marketed as a hunting mid-layer, you'll pay out the butt for them.......but if you go to Academy and buy some of the cheap, fleece sweatpants, they work just as well and are roughly $10/pair.

I made the switch from UA to First Lite several years ago and I wish I had done it sooner.

I use fleece pajama pants from academy, went one size smaller so they would fit a little snug and not be bunched up under the outer layer. They work very well

I use M65 field jacket liner and M65 pants liners. They are excellent for a mid layer and very light and packable. The pants liner futon up the legs and can be taken off or put on without taking your boots off. I wear a merino base layers, field liner and shirt and pants down to 30’s. The liners also seem to act as a windstopper.

Filson Heavyweight 100% Merino Wool Base Layer And Wool X Heavyweight 100% Merino Wool is what I wear. I never feel cold doubling these up together.
