Great review and breakdown. Sitka needs to make shorts for us waterfowlers in Florida 😃
We'd wear em!

Nomber one in word.......... no comment sitka timber 👍👍👍👍👍❤
Sitka wader warranty: Tears, patches, pinholes $30-$70 “depending on severity”. Boot replacement “due to wear” $200. Suspender replacement “due to wear” $40. End of season service, $125. Includes up to 4 pinhole patches and if a warranty issue is found (I.e. a manufacturing defect) it will be fixed free of charge.
Love these reviews! now I know what I need to add to my gear collection.
Thanks for the feedback and we are glad you like the video.

I wish they made a jacket that's like the jetstream but with upright shell pockets, handwarmer chest pockets and a removable hood. Jetstream is the best all around jacket. Also, some kind of felt or cleat option for the wader boots. Like some slip on felt bottoms. I can't wear rubber boots over mossy river rocks.
I’m dying to give these waders a try this year, but am having trouble finding any in my size. Seems the only sizes available are xxl size 13 boot. Get Sitka to sell me a large size 9 boot and I’ll subscribe! Lol!
Sorry you can't find them but you're not alone! Afraid we don't have that much pull man, lol. Good Luck, btw, you'll love the waders.
I have the core lightweight for top and bottom for next to skin. Would it be practical to wear 330 merino top and bottom on top of the core lights or would that be kind of redundant?
Great review, we are built alike im 6 feet about same build. Ijust ordered the Waders. Whats your chest size? Im at 53 inches i ordered a 2X hopefully they fit.
I have 4 pairs of waders hanging in my garage. 2 of them leak or are "temporarily patched."
IMHO close to 100% Merino wool is best for first and second layer if needed as well as socks. Nothing manufactured provides as much warmth. Then just stop the wind with another layer and whatever else you need.
Thanks for the feedback and for watching. We love Merino too.
Don’t hunt water as much so I have the Hudson for an outer. What do you think of grinder hoody Fahrenheit vest and the new Dakota jacket under that for late season?? Dakota jacket looks great because it’s a more durable outer compared to some prima-loft like duck oven or Fahrenheit jacket.
The Dakota Jacket would be a great extra layer for your system. We would suggest you wear it over the Grinder Hoody and Fahrenheit vest though. It will help you trap the warm air better that way as it is designed to be a mid/outer layer. It will work extremely well under your Hudson for sure and you will probably wear it by itself quite a bit too. Good luck this fall and thanks for the comment.
How much is that full system going to run folks? 5k? Sheesh
Thanks for watching Silas
Todd, would your core heavyweight hoody now be called the Gradient Hoody? Looking at building a Sitka system like yours, great video on all the Sitka gear.
MM,
They still offer the Heavyweight Hoody but the Gradient Hoody is a solid choice too. It's a bit heavier and warmer than the Heavyweight Hoody but either are excellent choices. Thanks for the kind words.
Do you think a gradient jacket and delta wading jacket would be a good combo for mid to late season
Depends where you are.
Does Sitka give you these items for review or do you buy them for yourself?
Sitka provides the items
Honest question that deserves a honest answer how many years have you got out of your waders? That's always the first piece to fail. If your endorsing 1 yr. or you get a new pair ever yr. Then that's a problem.
lifetime warranty
Running on three with the original pair of waders. First year with the redesigned version and have had zero issues.
What size do you wear in the waders?
11 XL
How tall and how much do you weigh and what are all the sizes for everything
5'11", 250 - XXL tops and XL bottoms.
Do you think the heavy weight pants and gradient bib under the delta waders is enough to keep you warm standing in water? I hunt in Michigan and often have hunts with temps in the teens, sometimes below zero. I want to get away from neoprene waders but the lack of insulation in the delta zip waders scares me.
Without a doubt!
What’s size are you wearing. It would help determine size when ordering online.
XXL tops and XL bottoms.
Is it true these are made in China? Thought Sitka would be American made.
What is the puffy coat with a hood in solid color that you see the guy wearing at 12:45-13:00 mark?
That's the Kelvin Lite Hoodie. They do not make that jacket any longer but have a new jacket in the same vein called the Aerolite Jacket. It is offered in solid colors as well.
@@wingmen_eastmans I have a kelvin lite in sub-alpine. LOVE it. Had no idea it ever came in solids.
@@chadcompton4753 Yeah, it was a great jacket. Solids were hard to come by.
$850 waders and made not made in USA....not thanks. SIMMS and USAI made in USA.
All the layering pieces collect to many burrs, stickers and other scratchy, annoying things when walking through marshes and fields. It is a terrible material as an outer layer.
We've found that packing in our layering pieces and wearing just the light shell keeps those nasty little clingers at bay and helps us regulate our temps on long walks to the blinds and spots we hunt.
Put the insulation pieces on once set up at your spot. Wear your outer layer in at it is most durable layer.
I hope Sitka is paying you, pal.
