Getting gear squared away,,and onlymajor thing I need is bibs. . i currently have no premium stuff, running merino base, some mid season huntworth. Pants and jacket (no wind barrier) and a warm used real tree cabela’s parka for cold days in the pack.…all good, but i was getting drafty last year waist and down in November and later. i might foray slowly into the premium stuff, and figure a pair of bibs might be a good place to start. Rarely do all day sits, but need bibs to layer under, and keep me in the tree for 3-4 hours from 30F to 50 F, and something quiet that I can zip the legs up and walk in with them on over my base layer top and bottom without sweating too much. Sitka stratus at 350+ is outside my budget. can’t find any used. i’ll go 250 Perhaps. UA bibs? They seem nice. I might do the first light solitude’s now that they are wind proof, 270 is my absolute max. Of course during the On-X sale, these weren’t in stock, so since they are new, looks like I’ll be paying retail…Or, should i just go Cabela sale redheads for $125 and call it a day? Any help would be appreciated, and if you’re looking to unload a pair, I’m either large tall or XL.
