Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Layers with Puffy Jackets

I got a First Lite Uncompahgre 2.0 for Christmas this year- my first and only puffy jacket- and have worn it deer hunting once and duck hunting a few times, but am not *really* sure what the best system is for layering around it. For those who use a similar jacket in your system, what else are you wearing?

I usually had Sitka lightweight and heavyweight base layers on, and a Sitka Cold Weather Traverse Hoody underneath the puffy, sometimes I’d add a vest when it was super cold.

If I had to walk through brush however, I put the puffy underneath my CW Traverse hoody as it seems to be a little more protective, but the insulation in the puffy jacket didn’t seem to work as well when it was squished.
