RE: You knew it was coming...
I may get a pair of their baselayer gloves, but only because they are the only thin layer warm weather BLACK gloves i can find. Suckers are 30 bucks tho...[&:]
Ill be decked out in Enduraskin base layers this year, layering up with thin fleeces from their as the need arises. Early season will be enduraskin baselayers and a loose fit endura skin top. Cheap cargo pants from walmart do for me as far as pants go though. I can buy three pair in Realtree AP for the same price as some name brand "quality" pair of pants. What is quality though? I have worn mine on EVERY hunt this past year and even turkey hunting this year. No fading from excessive washing, no ripping, no seams coming undone. They are still holding strong for me.
Scentlok is a no no in my book, simply because of price though. Sure they are quality garments, but same can be had for less. Clothing is one place I dont excessively spend. Id rather have more hunting gear and cheaper clothing.

Not me.......
Oh, and I can find plenty of high quality camo and not spend anywhere near the cost of those "scent blocking" garments.

BigJ.....I'd be willing to bet I paid less for my SB stuff than most paid for their non.
My point was....."Even if it has NO scenblocking abilities"........it's STILL great camo. And if it cost NO MORE than "regular" camo.....what is not to love?

I may get some base layer stuff. I really like wearing the UA stuff but for the same price i can get scentlok base lasyers and if it works it works and if it doesn't i'm not out any money. As far as outer wear I have a set of 3D real-fleece from whitewater that has the Rainblocker. For treestand hunting this is a great set because it is water/wind proof and really warm when you are layered right. But i never go with out my ASAT 3d suit over top!!! In early season I have a set of ASAT BDU style pants and a light Jacket.

I was gonna go with some new Gray wolf stuff this year, love the custom-ability of it and the customer service personalness they offer. But I think I'm going to stick with fleece for its quietness for now. If anything I might get a pullover in GW. I have a bunch of UA and base slayers and love them both, but the UA is superior in warmth and wicking. As far as scent lok or scent blocker camo outfits, I think they might be giving me a disadvantage as far as scent protection goes. I'm pretty fanatical when it comes to scent control, but I think I might be even more regimented if I KNOW my clothes aren't providing it. Plus it all comes down to what I can afford anyway.
