I ordered a bunch of gear this weekend from Day One Camo. I will post about it when it arrives. Love that you can customize your clothes, that it is made by hand in USA, and that everyone that has some seems to love it.
ordered a Cowboy suede parka and high pants, fleece pullover, fleece vest and hat and neck gaiter.. thought I'd try out this camo everyone seems to wear hunting.
mostly a plaid king of guy but asat intrigues me.... oh yeah and a insulated windstop vest

How many bones all that set you back?I ordered a bunch of gear this weekend from Day One Camo. I will post about it when it arrives. Love that you can customize your clothes, that it is made by hand in USA, and that everyone that has some seems to love it.

I do not have a black light with me on this trip. What do you suggest I do?I have his day one cowboy suede pack. I put it under black light. The fabric did not glow, but the thread lit up.
I would like to see a pic under black light of his cowboy suede jacket and bibs. One thing keeping me from purchasing his bibs and jacket is the glowing thread.
Don’t ask. That’s like your wife asking how much that firearm or bow cost. Hahaha. I have read other places that it’s a bit once cry once type of purchase. Meaning that if it gets damaged you return it, he fixes it and sends it back.

If you promise not to tell my wife I will share!
Seriously though its easy enough to check out the prices on his website and do the math. Somewhere around $450 ish. Would have to go back and check.
So basically a full set of matching quality hunting clothes made in USA for the cost of one sitka jacket. Definitely not the highest price stuff outthere so i am hoping for a good value on some quality gear.. i will report back once I have them in my hands

That’s the kind of comparison I was wondering about. That’s a good Ballpark compared to the Sitka and high priced stuff. That seems super reasonable for all the gear you got, especially for USA made. Thanks for sharing.

What material is that? Not the camo pattern but the actual material? What weather would you say it’s good for?Bought several items from Day One in about 1995. It’s all still going strong. Absolutely love it.
Here is a pic from 2019 season.

He makes different levels of warmth for you. You can add fleece or scent blocker or both or whatever you want. I also “read” on another forum that an individual got his pants all ripped up and they repaired them no questions asked.
It’s looking like I’ll get there Thursday morning or Friday CO time.
So I was able to get there today and will go back Friday to pick up the stuff I ordered. I will say that the owner has a bow hunting resume that is ummmm, well quite impressive. See the attached pictures and you will understand. All bow hunting. The bears are from Russia. Other stuff is from Africa and the US.
Clothing wise. His clothing cut is like Carhartt. Not newer first lite or form fitting. He custom makes his clothing right there on the spot and hemmed my pants on the spot and is making the other items I ordered to be ready Friday for pick up. I’ll post pics of me in it then.

I appreciate you making the offer. Not much to do but maybe ask if the thread in the clothes is the same or different than the pack. But no worries if you do not.
I sent Gary an email on 9/23/2020 with the same question and the pic I posted. He never got back to me.
Again, thanks.

Got a phone call from Gary yesterday to go over my order. Should be shipped out in 10 days or so. That is an impressive group of mounts @Zero One Actual , thanks for the pics. I guess the glow in the dark threads don't glow so bad they spook the game (just Joshin' you @sojourner )
If you can make all those hunting trips while running a hunting gear company, I just might need to learn to sew and make Gary an offer on his company. Do you think anyone would take me seriously selling from the great deer state of Massachusetts?

If you call and ask, he may still make it for you. They make everything right there in house. He can move pockets, add whatever wherever and add scent block, wind stopper, insulation, etc.
Wow, thanks for the info!
Zero - any pictures of the gear you purchased?
I’m in CO right now and get back this weekend. I’ll get some photos for you. You want pics of it on or just on the ground?
Either is good.
I use to buy all my Predator camo from them. You get what you pay for. Good quality clothing. I don't need anymore Predator clothes at this time but if I did I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Day One camoDoes or has anyone here had experiences with the Day One clothing and camo? They are a small USA made camo company out of Colorado. I searched here and didn’t find any results and YouTube has ten year old videos here and there and the website is older.
Thank you for any information.
