I don't know how many Sitka reviews I've watched but it would have saved me a lot of time if I just started with this one. Good, clear, review. Covered everything I was looking for. Thank you!

Great vid. Since trying on Sitka gear in person is not an option for me your videos help me enormously. thanks and happy hunting!

You say you don’t work for Sitka but I believe you should! Great video thanks

Thank you for all the informative videos!

You are very welcome!

Good job. Liked that review.

Thanks so much for posting this video. Looking to upgrade this year and to be honest, it's getting quite overwhelming. Sitka, Scentlok, Firstlite, Kiku, on and on and on. I'm coming from a history of basically Underarmour with a Redhead one piece suit.

I only have three pieces of Sitka gear but it’s honestly all I really need. I run the Dakota vest&hoodie and delta jacket. My hoodie and vest are timber and my delta is Marsh. I can hunt year round with this set up in the PNW

Would love a comparison video between Sitka & Arc’teryx. I understand Sitka is primarily for hunting but I’ve also read reviews from customers who’ve purchased Arc gear for hunting too. Personally, I’m an Arc’teryx guy myself (mostly for military & day-to-day winter gear). Arc’teryx vs. Sitka - let’s see those comparisons!

Thanks for the sitka vidios..such a big help when you are purchasing item's this expensive ..

Awesome reviews! Still got to get that rain cover review hooked up for me.

Thank you for making these video. As one of your customer I'm too considering changing all of my camp and going with Stika. I primarily hunt whitetail in Alabama, and plan to hunt whitetail in the northern states sometime in the near future (God willing). Can you give me your recommendation? Thanks again.

Appreciate all your Sitka videos. Getting ready to order some fanatic lite bibs. Torn on what size to order. I wear a xl jacket and large bottoms usually. Have you had any experience with these bibs?

I thought about buying the waterfowl timber camo for hunting whitetails in the rain during rifle season... It's a dark camo and out blend in with the woods and tree stand being so dark. What do you think about that?

I’m really enjoying your reviews since i am Brand new to Sitka. I just did a full day hunt this past Saturday and I used my current gear that I have, cotton t-shirt, cotton long sleeve shirt and a synthetic blend hoodie, and a cotton blend pant. Low was 42 high 62. I was chilly in the morning and got cold into the evening sitting in my stand in north east PA. If I want to dip my feet into switching to Sitka what do you recommend to go along with what I have to help me out for now until I can build a full Sitka line? I was considering maybe equinox pants since I have some Duofold base layer pants and maybe the equinox hoodie. But what do you recommend?? Thanks!!!

I bow hunt a lot, and looking to upgrade to Sitka. However, I can see that I hunt in temperature ranges between the stratus & incinerator. Do people ever layer the stratus & fanatic together during 🥶? Also, on sizing. I’m usually a large, 195lbs. But it feels tight, is it supposed to feel that way? Thanks you for informed videos! My boys & I love them

In your personal opinion which for whitetail do you think I should get the whitetail pattern of the subalpine my local bass pro had the subalpine but I’m split on my decision

I think if I could go back my first Sitka purchase would be the bibs

Great vid. What company makes that hat youre wearing? I love it.

Thanks for the video. You mentioned you go XL on everything. Do you wear Sitka waders and if so do you wear those in a L or XL?

I’m 5’-11” 200-205lbs regular-athletic build large jackets fit me but tight in the arms and an extra large feels like I’m wearing a blanket not sure what to go with

Hey, looking for further recommendations on what other pieces would fit into my system nicely. I hunt in central il, and currently have the gradient jacket and pant, Dakota vest, duck oven jacket, Hudson jacket, Hudson bib, pantanal glove, and gradient glove thanks

Okay cool, another thing is what is your opinion on boots for dry field hunting as well as late season whitetail, I’m thinking mucks arctic pros? Lacrosse alphas have crossed my mind also Thanks

could you hunt both ducks and deer with Dakota hoodie or does the upper half make to much when drawing a bow?

@fieldseriesreview

I think you could. It’s not as quiet as a stratus/fanatic but I bet you could do it pretty easy.

What would be better for waterfowl, core lightweight hoody or crew?

I go crew for waterfowl and hoody for whitetail.

So theres a fanatic lite and a regular fanatic?

I'm 5'9 135lbs. 29 waist. I go small all the way up to stratus and get stratus in medium or all small? I'm torn on sizes

Great Stuff on your site.....I'm new to Sitka and wanted to know your thoughts on the sizing for the Stratus Jacket...im 5'11 200lbs, athletic build....I have a large fanatic hoody and large celcius midi....would you go with a large or xl stratus jacket? How about the stratus pants....i wear a 34 equinox pant. thanks in advance and great content on your site!

We're pretty much the same size, did the 34 waist work for you? I'm considering 36 waist. Thanks

Cool video but what are clothing are we talking about i cant see them

Do you recommend using water repellant spray on the dakota? To help use it as a outer piece so it has some water proofness

@fieldseriesreview

3 жыл бұрын

It comes with DWR already applied to repel water.

2:00 next to skin bottoms. 4:00 lightweight or heavy weight. What is the difference? That is the question

What would you recommend for upland hunting? Temps are usually around 25 degrees plus wind but we are walking 4-6 miles a day. Needs to be resistant to thorns and branches.

Hey Jeff. I have the Hudson bibs and they are great for the couple of upland hunts I do every year. If I was chasing pheasant on a regular basis, I’d probably go with Filson’s bibs. They are about the same price and probably better for that type of application.

Ever plan on reviewing stands and sticks ?

ngia yang I second that! I retired last fall. My friends knowing me well, gave me a bunch of cash for retirement party to use for hunting. I started buying Sitka and now I’m ruined. Lol. Won’t wear anything else! Wasted a bunch of money on other brands. Was into cabelas and banded drake. All that is about worn out and cabelas has gone down hill. Last fall I was so warm and comfortable and can’t believe how thin, light and comfortable Sitka is. I’m bought Waterfowl line last fall and switching to elevated for deer hunting. Don’t slam Sitka clothes until you tried! If you have the means and can afford, it is hands down best investment.

Definitely overpriced and nowhere as warm as they say. I purchased a lot of the waterfowl gear Fahrenheit vest, gradient jacket and boreal jacket and some pants and hats. You pay for the pattern that’s about it. My old USMC fleece is warmer than the gradient jacket and you can get one on eBay for $40

#1 rule they don't tell you is what works for them won't work for you!!!
