[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 189789, member: 412"] More info needed. Do you need clothing for sitting in a tree-stand? What month? Sept 1 clothing is much different than Oct 15 clothing, Nov 15 clothing is differenter, and Dec 15 clothing probably doesn't include anything from your Sept 1 outfit. Maybe you're in an enclosed blind. Heater or no? Insulated or no? Fabric, wood, plastic, or ?????? Maybe you're hunting afoot. If that's the case you'll need far less insulation. Breathability and moisture management become a far bigger issue than "warm enough". I mostly hunt afoot and mostly balance warmth and moisture management via my base layers. The same pair of pants or favorite jacket will go an awful long ways by just running the gamut from silk-weight base layers to polar weight fleece base layers. I love windstopper/Goretex garments when I'm stationary but I'll be drenched in sweat quickly if I try to move very far or very fast in a windstopper/Goretex garment. Wool is more comfortable for me in a wider temperature and activity level. Wool IMO also "airs out" better than synthetic garments. Synthetic garments however dry much more quickly than wool. Packing in a layer of Prima-Loft or 650+ weight down layers are an easy way to have a lot of warmth quickly without a lot of weight or space taken up in your pack. [/QUOTE]
