naw money aint the problem, but since I have $100 to CAbelas I would like to buy something that they carry - I should have stated that.
I actually have the cabbalas wool mittens/gloves, I hunted tonight and my hands were sweating (-15 tonight with windchill). I like that stuff but would like more information from others.

Get the zipper fixed man! Easy and somewhat cheap solution. Just don't have it replaced with a shiny zipper

Can you post up a pic or a link to those mittens/gloves? After tonight I'm done with the PsOS I have

I am looking into this, my wife grandpa was a tailor for 70 years so if he can't fix it - no one can!

these are not exact but close to the ones I have, IDK if they make the ones I have anymore.
Whatever you get, make sure it's got a windproof liner. That makes all the difference in the world.
for cold weather gear, windproof (Windstopper, Comformax) is absolute necessity. gore tex blocks wind, but is more expensive and not really necessary as staying dry when it's really cold is not a big problem. I'm not nearly the fan of wool that I used to be. expensive, heavy, does not block wind well, bulky. it has its virtues, but we have better options today.

Best hunting coat I've ever owned for cold weather hunting. highly recommend the bibs as well. quality of construction, design, and especially the fit of Sitka gear is second to none. buy once, cry once. this type of gear is a lifetime purchase if you know how to take car of your stuff, and after two seasons wearing Sitka Gear, I still kick myself for not buying it sooner. nothing I have or had compares.

thanks Jamie- I am really going to take a look at this stuff. I need to get to a store to touch it, try it on, etc. I got a few that I will stop by in a week or so and check it out. The reviews are great on Cabelas!

Clay you are darn right they do! I might buy a couple just to have them - some good sales!
I love my First Lite Sanctuary jacket.. not sure if Cabelas carries them but well worth the money
Best cold weather clothing i have i
Ever owned is the Cabelas Stand Hunter Bibs and Parka.
Also have their woolimate pullover with hood and handwarmer pocket.
I prefer the pullover when bowhunting.
Not a fan of heavy gloves when it's cold,just a hand muff and handwarmers with a light pair of gloves works for me.

Teej so I hunted last Friday an LAYERED up and I wasn't that cold it was -15 with wind chill. I am thinking that if I am going to spend that type of money I want to know its a WARM jacket. I looked at those and they seem very well built - just seem light weight.
have you worn it deer hunting in say 30 degrees and not been as layered? keep you pretty warm?
