Do they work good?I have the lamilite socks and jacket liner from wiggys. Both work great. I did buy the “fishnet” long John’s from Brynje and not wiggys.

@ricky racer maybe? I think he has some wiggies gear and talks highly of it if I’m remembering correctly
my mom found a set of the netting long Johns at a yard sale for next to nothing years ago and I tried it on and it was the weirdest most uncomfortable thing I had ever worn. That design looks like the netting is only only from the knees down though so maybe not as bad?
Don’t talk about my mommaYou tried on your moms fishnets huh
I did and he is not friendly at all.Been a Wiggy's user for many years, all his stuff is top notch and works as advertised.
I have 2 of his sleeping bags, 1 is approx. 20 yrs. old, still performing as if new.
Jacket and vest liners are very warm and not expensive.
The insulating material, Lamilite, has unique properties that all the other insulation does not have.
I also, early on tried his fish nets and did not find the comfort that I wanted, but believed in the principal.
I ended up with Norwegian surplus Merino wool fishnets and could not be happier.
Go to his web site and read the archives, you will get a very good education on the principals of staying warm and dry.
If you call Wiggy's, there is a good chance he will answer the phone.
He can be a grumpy old man at times, but he knows his stuff...I did and he is not friendly at all.
That sucks. Yea I remember no stretch. I’m surprised you still bought it. What made you go that route?Well, I finally tried this stuff on getting ready for deer season. It is a no go for sure. Its way to rough for the skin. fit is to snug and there is no stretch in it.
Not sure but it was a waste of money.That sucks. Yea I remember no stretch. I’m surprised you still bought it. What made you go that route?
What size shirt and pants are you?Not sure but it was a waste of money.

@bowhunthard88 is really knowledgeable on fishnets, his favorite is the Brynje Wool Thermo Mesh. Said Aclima were ok too.
Grumpy and opinionated would be an understatement...........
But like Ricky Racer said "he does know his stuff".
His archives are a wealth of knowledge, I have learned a tremendous amount regarding warmth and dryness of the human body.
