That confused me at first as well. But as @Plebe pointed out, Ol’ Man is made by Millennium.I don't think Millennium makes a climber?
I am not interested, but I talked to the owner. These are a copy of the Tree Walker.These make the custom gear crossover look like a bargain…
Heartland Climbers
Heartland climbers are 100% American-made, aluminum stands that are designed for safety and easy climbing. Our stands are equipped with steel bolts designed to grab the tree with no slip. Our black pipe encloses a steel cable to keep our straps stiff while climbing. All stands come with a...www.heartlandclimbers.com
I enjoy a nice climber, but what’s the big deal with those to warrant $1,000?
They don’t have much on their site, so I might have missed something.

That batting cage netting used for the seat must be expensive! Inflation…Agree. Look nice but there's no fab there to rack up a price tag more than a Viper.
I wonder if they used a quieter fabric than they normally do……… Kifaru makes great packs but they are noisey on cold days in the treestand.

I have the same pack, Kifaru Stryker. What a noisy piece of trouble. Zippers are gross. If you pack most of your stuff between the pack and frame you can make it work. Just don't touch those zippers unless your life is on the line,I use my Stryker XL in Multicam as a knee rest when using my climbing platform and don’t find it noisy. Highs in the 20s.
It’s not fleece or wool quiet, sure.
That’s just frame packs.
I’d be shocked to see something other than Cordura.

I don’t think whitetail tree stand packs have to be as robust as a mountain hunting pack so they could go with a softer material for quietness in certain areas of the pack. Mystery Ranch treehouse uses a softer material. The Eberestock X2 is a little quieter as well with their softer material but not perfect (pack I use for tree stand/whitetail hunting).Works well for me.
Like I said, it’s cordura (and YKK). Other high end frame packs aren’t any better. At least in my experience and I’ve been through most of the big name stuff. They mostly use the same materials.
The benefits outweigh the drawbacks for me.
What’s the material that’s quiet and highly water resistant and durable and lightweight?
And which zippers are silent and more foolproof?
I’m all for progress here.
