The double mack is beefy and with layers underneath, it can get hard to bend your arms. The last couple of years, I've mainly reserved mine for regular Winter wear, not hunting. I've got an old, made in America Cabelas waterfowl parka with real Thinsulate, and Real Goretex (not Sears Goretex). That coat is over 20 years old and refuses to die. It's very light, very warm, and still totally waterproof. It's slightly noisy, but not overly so, and I wear an oversized cheap "Winchester" fleece jacket from Whatamart with the sleeves cut off over it to satisfy the blaze orange rules and add some pockets. Great combo for stand hunting, rain, shine, or whatever.
Ditto on the Filson vest. I wear mine under my shirt, inside my pants to add a layer, and secure pockets. I also wore it to Christmas dinner last year. Very snazzy.
While we're at it, a Stormy Kromer wool hat is the best $40 you'll ever spend.
