When it comes to hunting, appropriate clothing becomes paramount in any expedition. Thermoregulatory features become the key to not only success, but survival. Cotton is not an option for the hardcore female hunter and performance-driven fabrics become imperative. Utilizing outdated men’s gear become disadvantageous and layering systems are indispensable. So how does the female hunter know what apparel systems will provide the best performance for her hunting experiences? How does she determine what hunting apparel she should purchase among a sea of camouflage? A good place to start is by gleaning a clear understanding of the necessary performance features and fabrics to enhance comfort and success in the field. Continue Reading

It all started with a pair of rock climbing pants. Named for a degree of climbing difficulty, 5.11 pants were designed by rock climber Royal Robbins and became hugely popular in rock climbing circles. But it didn’t end there.

Since 1997, Lorpen has been making the highest quality socks in the world. It is no wonder that Lorpen has their headquarters at the base of Spain’s Pyrenees Mountains or that they encourage their staff to try their socks out in the great outdoors.

With hunting season upon us for those of you out west and already in full swing for those in Alaska and Canada, it is time to start thinking about what you will be wearing this season. This isn’t one of those fancy New York City fashion columns, but more of an understanding on what is available for 2009. The clothing of today has high tech fabric, which is extremely lightweight and has good insulation qualities as well. It has the ability to pull moisture away from your skin and keep you dry and comfortable, which will allow you to stay in the field longer. For a select few of you out there this fall, it might even save your life.

For the last 20 years, mountaineers and adventurists have been developing and refining a defining method to stay comfortable in rapid changing climatic scenarios. Combining the concept, technology, and progression; Sitka Gear is amidst the upper echelon in the utilization of Base Layer technology. While there are several elements that play to make an effective Base, the overall success is determined by the garment’s ability to “wick” moisture. With your skin dry, you are warm when it’s cold, and cool when it’s hot.

It is an extreme wonder that many of us outdoors people continue to partake in the wonders of nature. Not too many years ago it was cotton long underwear, flannel shirts, and wool coats and pants for those days in the field. It was a hike to the stand or lookout bluff and build up a good sweat where it soaked your cotton undergarments to the point that you could probably wring the moisture out of the garment and then it was time to sit for hours and gradually freeze to death. We somehow survived every trip and developed an extreme love of the outdoors in doing so. I’m pretty sure that I could have gotten the love of the outdoors just as much without those miserable memories of being uncomfortable.
