The higher end clothing brands are not geared for the weekend warriors. It is geared towards the guys who spend a good amount of time out in the field and in the back country. I can throw on a hoodie and put my Sitka Kelvin vest on and be just as warm as my dad who has his sharp polyester jacket over his sweatshirt over his long johns. It's not the 80's anymore. Things have come a long way in the clothing world. We're not wearing everything cotton now. Sitka vs. Gander Mountain, Yeti vs. Coleman, Swarovski vs. BushnellThere's reasons why they are more expensive. One is being quality. We go on a several trips a year. Guess which cooler we're digging in to ice down our crown on the 4th day of our fishing trip in June? You still have to take the bag out and slam it on the ground to grab ice out of it. Open up the Coleman and you have a puddle of water. 2nd weekend of deer season, 2 minutes left of legal shooting light. You can see the outline of the bodies walking into the field and pull up your bino's. Guess who can see everything in detail? Guess who can hardly see light through their optics?To say they are the same quality is like saying a corvette is the same as a Honda accord. No comparison. Also, guess who now has one of those "fancy" coolers that can hold ice for more than 24 hours......</blockquote>
