And it looks like they might be adding to the Camo choices.
Hoping for some Max-1

Thanks for the link, I had never heard of them before. Do the pants have stretch?
I really like the merino hoody!

"Do the pants have stretch?"
Yes they do. They have thigh vents as well and will make a great elk hunting suit!
Good Shooting!

If there is any proof of a man in a hunt it is not whether he killed a deer or elk but how he hunted it.

And if you buy the pants, you can get the jacket at the same time as the extra item.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

Yes, 32" inseam is not going to work for me. Looks like nice stuff however. Last year I bought a full set of Russell stuff. I like it a lot, and is available at my local Sportsmans Warehouse, so I am sticking with Russell.

Still on CamoFire, but out of the Medium talls. Bummer.

Noticed on the sizing chart that the waist sizes run small for a given size. I always wear medium, but went with a large on these.

I know Kendall changed the sizing chart yesterday after all the questions he got concerning the sizing of these garments. The large Element jacket I bought fits like my XL 90% jacket so their size chart a bit more true to size than Sitkas.

Looks like they will be getting in some of their lighter weight pants next week as well.

Anyone else buy any of this stuff? Just bought the Switchback pant yesterday and it comes with the Talus belt, which looks exactly like the Bomber belt made by Sitka.
Was wondering if anyone has purchased any of the merino wool stuff yet. I'm trying to get some but it seems to be hard to come by.

I bought the element pants but sent them back the knees had a seam for the knee pad and it caught across my knees it was a bad fit. Kendel said they had a real problem with those seams in that pant. He let me keep the belt it looks the same as the belt at Kuiu and Stika sells.
I don't know about the lighter weight pants? I will be curious how they really stackup to the stika ascent pant if any one has any input at 85 they are a lot cheaper?

Glad you mentioned that about the Element pants, I might go with the Kryptek heavier Koldo Blockade pant instead. Am also considering their Prydbor jacket for hunting in cooler weather.

I usually carry my Impertech but i'm looking for other options right now. Seriously considering the Marmot Aegis jacket and Precip pants.
