Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.

Vortex and jippo camo is made for the discriminating buyer that doesn’t want to pay high prices for their outdoor gear and still get out of Walmart’s parking lot.
I was thinking the other day how much I used to hate Bill Clinton. He was freaking George Washington compared to what they are now.

Synthetic and at least a little stretchy is good. Add a DWR finish and it's even better. I really don't care who's name is on/in the clothing. Whatever does the best job of managing whatever moisture I'm going to have to deal with on a given day. Doesn't matter if it's sweat, dew, frost, snow, or rain, just get it/keep it away from my skin as quickly as possible.

How many of you Sitka guys are going to get their new offering?..... Genius! What is MSRP? I'll take 5! Does it work better sitting in a blind, or do they have a model designed for the hiker?

I have some Sitka but all mine is in solid colors. Working at an airport in Alaska, I get to see hundreds of hunters come through each season. I get to see all the new clothing and it is funny to see entire parties decked out in matching Kuiu or Sitka or whatever. Any flight out of Kodiak to Anchorage and many out of Anchorage to Seattle with have guys fully decked out in Kuiu or Sitka. I guess they didn't bring any other clothing with them. I can't bring myself to wear camo outfits on a commercial flight. I don't think I have any camouflage pants except maybe a pair of waterfowl bibs. I really like my Sitka pants with the knee pads, comfortable, freedom of movement and durable. I just bought a jacket but the fit is for skinny millennials I will probably have to give it to my wife. I rarely hunt in jeans anymore. They are nearly as stretchy and easy to walk in as $20 Costco nylon/polyester pants!

I have KUIU and Sitka, been to the Sitka HQ in Bozeman for a tour. Even thought they are owned by GoreTex, they still operate independently. I like KUIU, they have unique pieces and their price point is 20-30% less than Sitka but the quality is not the same although I have no complaints with my KUIU stuff. Sitka overall has better fabrics and product development with the resources of GoreTex. I will continue to buy both brands and I only shop when I can find a good sale since I really don't need anymore hunting clothes but who says "need" has anything to do with it!

I used to wear wool and cotton, since switching to KUIU/Sitka, will never wear anything else. The lightweight stretch fabric makes a huge difference when loaded up with multiple layers, gun and gear hiking in or climbing a tree. Being able to lift your legs to walk or climb without your pants fighting every step adds steps to your day.

I have a mixed batch of First Lite, Kuiu, Sitka, and wool. I've added a few pieces of Sitka over the past few years and so far really like it. It performs well and is designed well. If you watch sales, you can save a bunch. Last year, I got the Sitka timberline pants with knee pads and really like those for the open country where kneeling and crawling happens a lot. Not every piece is camo-ed either which is a plus to me.

It's entertaining to me watching guys wearing Sitka and Kuiu standing around a fire to get warm....never getting close enough to feel any heat for fear of a popping ember landing on their pants.
Better yet is watching them cross a barb wire fence. Oh geez that is indeed funny--and oh so true....... It's also entertaining reading all the critics on here....... Wearing Sitka or Kuiu is better than wearing cotton jeans in freezing wet temps like so many on here do. I don't own either but I wouldn't make fun of others who use/wear them. The Kuiu stuff is pretty affordable when on sale, and the late founder of Kuiu was a pretty good hunter. I know some pretty damn good hunters who are are wearing the Kuiu line nowadays. I'll be buying some when my Cabelas and Patagonia wear out.

That butt plug is a Chinese knock off. It’s not even a real Sitka camo pattern. Bunch of damn fools...
