- This Video talks about cold weather hunting clothes to keep you warm on stand. Hunting in cold weather can be tough! This video will show you how to approach your cold weather clothing system to make sure you are getting the most out of it.
I LOVE how you put that. I’m a walking WalMart billboard and I’m comfortable on stand. Also THANK YOU for all your videos. Started doing hang and hunts this year. Your videos took it from being a cluster to quick, efficient and less sweating.
Thanks Brandin!
I’m soo glad i saved this to view for a Christmas morning quiet time! It’s a wonderful use of a half hour! Thanks , Jason and well wishes . Merry Christmas and happy new year 🎊
Glad you liked it! Merry Christmas!
Thanks for these videos, clothing is often overlooked by people more concerned about the hot new caliber and camo pattern
Agree and the clothing is most important
Aclima Woolnet base layer, Alpaca thermal layer and woolpower insulating layer, is a perfect foundation to keep you warm in the cold.
Wool is great stuff for sure.
Excellent, practical & non-expensive advice. The big sports stores & camo clothing manufacturing companies must not be thrilled with you. Keep it up. Just received my Scouting Video #2. Looking forward to viewing it!
Thanks! Let me know what you think of the new scouting vid!
Will do!
Great video!
Amazing video. Super helpful having the list. I wrote it all down and added “for extreme cold use belclova hat and neck gator.” Plus I didn’t know I could use a rain layer as a windbreaker in extreme cold.
Glad you enjoyed it
Great synopsis of each article needed. Excellent plan.
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it
Good video. I'm a cheapskate. I sewed my own base layer and socks with different styles of synthetic fleece material. After building the layers I walked out onto the patio at night when it was 40F and while sitting there was a slight draft wearing nothing but the socks and the base layer. It was still comfortable even after 30 minutes. Then I remembered that "cotton kills" line. So, I put my blue jean over top of my fleece lower and when back outside it felt like someone poured ice water on my legs. I guess everyone isn't the same. I'm glad cotton is good for you.
Oh. My feet stayed cold for decades even during Summer. For a few months I walked 6 miles a day for 7 days a week. Now my feet are warm even on the coldest days wearing cotton socks. Who knew my feet were so cold because of bad circulation? Oh well.
That's awesome you sew your own base layers
@@SamkoTradBow lol I'm one of those men whose confortable enough with his manhood to not be afraid to say I sewed something. I've read that a lot of men who also sew, only say I built myself a shirt ot whatever. That's OK. The main thing is stay warm.
Heck yeah thanks for the reminder! Just scored some cold weather gear for almost half off!
Awesome! I need to start watching as well!
Linton has storm light pants for 138 I believe
@@SuperToehead gonna check tonight when I get home. Great find. Thank you
Spot on Jason I am trying to figure this out myself right now. Looking for a solution that is bowhunter friendly and as thin as possible but works at temps 20 degrees or so, love to see example of your thermal and jnsulation layer. Thanks again!!
My thermals are not made anymore. They are just polyester fleece thermals, nothing fancy or expensive made by rocky. Used to get them at Walmart for 20 bucks each. Have like 20 pairs. My insulation layer is anything in my closet. Hoodies, wool sweater, sweat pants, pullovers, etc. You would be amazed how warm a pair of Walmart sweatpants can keep ya. Another great idea because knees and calfs rarely get cold but thighs and butts do is to also use a pair of thick shorts or cut off sweatpants for one more layer without bulking up around your boots. I have 3 pairs of Walmart sweat pants that are cut to shorts just above the knee. Work awesome.
Excellent advice!
Thank you
Thank you!! It's getting up to late season here and i need some tips!
Every year around Christmas I give my wish list to people hoping to get some free hunting stuff, all I get is a cheap knife lol. So I end up buying it myself 🙁
Electrical Boot drier is a MUST! My sweaty feet make the inside of my boots moist and then they get way too cold if I don't dry them out!
Yeah a boot drier is important here as well
Yup, I hear ya! 1 pair for the morn n one fore the aft. Always one pair on my boot drier! Best $50 ever :-)
Great info
Thank you
Good video. It's frustrating buying hunting cloths these days. ESPECIALLY the outer camo's. I think they used to make superior camo's compared to today, but the hunting industry has people thinking they need all kinds of "technology" like "wind shear" or "wind stop" etc which just makes noise & cost more. I used to have camo's from "Shikari cloth" that I paid $220 for (bibs & coat). It was quiet as wool or an old cotton t-shirt but the weave was so tight water beaded up off it & it was effectively windproof in all but the windiest weather in which case you could barely feel any wind getting through. It had a brushed tricot (polyester) lining with 200 grams of thinsulate. It could be single digits & I was comfortable (& I got cold easy). I only wore a couple light layers under it. Yet with the double full length leg zippers I could vent heat so I didn't have to pack it in & could wear it up to around 50* temps. It was Awesome. Saddle cloth was almost as good but that is gone too. I'm so sick of the options vs cost today I'm almost to the point of looking into importing from China if I could find someone to get it from. The only high quality cloths I can seem to find these days run $800+ for a similar set up.
Very well said! Appreciate the comment. For the china option you should check out aliexpress.com. there you can buy China made products for very low prices. Might find exactly what you are looking for there.
@@SamkoTradBow Ha, I brought them up just before I posted here. lol Thanks though. BTW, have you ever tried a DWR water proof spray? It seems like that would nearly wind proof your cloths. I'm just not sure if it would add noise.
@@MrWhiltetail where do you buy dwr spray? I believe that's what kuiu treats thier stuff with as does columbia, and others. I have a few garments that are dwr and they work great and not noisy at all.
@@SamkoTradBow I haven't bought any yet, but you can buy different brands. A friend of mine owns Stealth Outdoors & I think he said he used some from Atsko that worked well when he dabbled in making clothing. I can't remember for sure so I sent him a message, but he is up gun hunting & I'm not sure when he will get back. I also sent an email to Atsko a few minutes ago about it. I'm not sure if it will do much for wind resistance or not but I might give it a try if I don't have to worry about adding noise. Here is a link to an article by Atsko you might find interesting. www.atsko.com/durable-water-repellent/
@@MrWhiltetail awesome! Let me know what you find out. Will check out the article tomorrow. Off to bed up at 4am to be in stand. Couple days left here in Kansas.
Can you provide some links to some of the other videos that you mentioned about keeping feet warm?
Sorry I ment podcasts. I have done podcasts about keeping feet warm. I will have to go back thru the podcasts and hint them down. Will when I get some free time.
ok, thank you.
I am a left hander also on both bow and fire arm ANF have been known to get up to 5-10 miles from my vehical and hunt all three stages ( tree stand, ground blind, and hunt and stalk )depending on the situation and am also on a very fixed income I have some of these things and also use a lot of military surplus gear but I am wondering how well frog tongs would work for a rain/wind stopper and how well they would hold up when needed for use in all three types of hunting aspects also i have used what are called Mickey mouse boots ( military surplus winter boots ) not a lot of tread and have had my feet get cold in them any ideas? Also the best head gear I have for hunting is a full pull over reversible head cover mask that comes down over the face and far down over the neck it is very thick and helps keep my face ears and neck covered but am wondering how to wear a billed hat with it to help with Sun in the eyes shade to cut glare any ideas on that?
Not sure on the frog toggs. I know they are water resistant bit not sure on the durability to hold up to 5 or 10 mile hikes regularly. But I do believe duck tap will stick to frog toggs so that will help patch any tears you do get.
Thank you I do have some camoflauge duct tape about 3-4 rolls so that should help. Again thank you. Btw any ideas on how to keep my feet warm in mucky mouse boots ( military surplus winter boots )?
@@robertmiller2629 those boots are about as warm as boots get. If still cold add chemical toe warmers will help
Cotton is cold. Don't do that against your body. If have to walk it takes so long to dry. Polypropylene is pretty cheep at Walmart along with polyester. If you can afford a high content Marino, that's ideal next to skin but 100 bucks for tops and same for bottom..
Been wearing cotton for all my life in the woods in all conditions. I love cotton
Great breakdown.Biggest problem I found with my gear this year was my feet. Last year was colder but his year was much damper. I used waterproof boots with felt pac liners. Tried the liner sock, vapour barrier, warm sock and boots whiched worked great last year but my feet froze this year. Any suggestions?
Nate
chemical toe warmers work good. Baffin titan boots are super warm yet you can still climb tree stand stick. Artic shield boot insulators work good too especially with a hand warmer stuffed in there.
Journeyman 71 change out your socks at stand to dry wool socks put the wet socks in a ziplock bag
@@backinthewoods2022 great tip!
Like Jason said "BAFFIN TITAN BOOTS"!!!! The warm answer to all of your cold prayers! Please trust this tip from a Southern Raised boy who not lives and hunts in Wisconsin! Baffin TITAN! GET THEN NOW
I need your help Jason. So if I understood you correctly, by the simple science of rain gear makes if automatically wind resistant? Mike
Yes. All rain gear I know of is also wind proof as well. There are some exceptions like canvas and some others. But most rain gear is wind resistant
@@SamkoTradBow Thanks as always. Man I tell ya, I have to limit myself on how many of your videos I watch of yours in a row. 😀 I trust your word over many others because I know, you have done all the gear research, spent all the money, and tested, tested, and tested some more so when you say, "Get something" I get it knowing it is everything I am looking for. Hands Down! Thanks for everything Jason. P.S. I also picked up that ARS pocket saw and it is FANTASTIC. And the Baffin Boots are in a class of there own!!!!
@@Bamamike223 lol. Glad the vids are helping. I can promise I will never do a review on or promoting something I dont 100% believe in, use, or know would help others. Glad you live the saw and the boots! That ars saw is the only saw I carry now. The silky is great but I like the light weight and extra length of the ars.
@@SamkoTradBow Awesome. You are great. Please keep doing what you do! Happy New Year!
Which First Lite rain gear do you like? Seak? Thanks Jason
I like the boundary storm tight pants and the storm light jacket. Also really like the kuiu chugatch jacket. But find myself using the storm light jacket more. I have a video I did on the first light stuff a few months ago
Thanks Jason, they are having a Sale Monday and I intend to be out in the Rain a lot more in 2019. I don’t have any rain gear right now.
@@steveboggs2595 the boundary storm tight pants are very durable and are my favorite! The storm light jacket is super light weight and take almost no space in your pack. When rains I put it on and when it stops I take it off.
What is the diferrenc BASE and THERMAL. Can you give some examples.
Usually a base layer is the layer against your skin. Then a thermal or insulation layer
@@SamkoTradBow this layer is Is it to be glued to the body or loose?
When do you use balaclavas?
I dont ever. But they ate very handy for windy and cold days
Thank you but too wordy, however enjoy watching nevertheless.
Wordy?
@@DJ-kx6gr I think he means not cutting straight to the point. I think the guy did a good job not going off of a script. It’s a video about layering clothes not a military briefing lol
lmFAO
