Will do

yea
I was very hesitant about ordering mine, but did it anyway. I ordered a hoody and a pair of sweatpants in the same material. I couldn't be happier. I've had them about 2 weeks. It's been in the 40s during the day and mid-30s after the sun goes out (I work a noon to 10 pm shift). Normally, in these temps I wear a "regular" (cheap) hoody under a Filson single Mac. I haven't needed the wool yet. A dozen pockets lets me organize my stuff better. I can't compare it to any other technical hoodies, but this is the best hoody I've ever owned, and will probably order a second one. The sweats are not as feature packed, but they're extremely comfortable indoors and out. For me, this was a great purchase.
Excellent stuff Tom
Just got mine today very warm and comfortable bought my dad one also for Christmas.
Nice, I hope he doesn't read this
Just ordered one for my son for Christmas. Overall, the reviews seem pretty positive. Thanks for the review.
Seems good so far
The greatest hoodie of all time and it makes you never look at hoodies the same way ever again. My 2.0 is my daily driver.
It's way better than I expected so far
I bought one last winter and the zipper broke the first day, Big waste of money
The 3.0 isn't the same quality as the 2.0
It's a copy of a Helikon Patriot fleece but much cheaper. If it holds I might well buy one.
I'll give it a good test
Look forward to the full review 🤙🤙
I'll wear it hard
Let me know how you get on with the cuff velcro fasteners.
I bought a Kombat Sharkskin Jacket years ago (because I didn't know better) and they had the same style cuffs. What a PITA them plastic straps are. Always catching and always coming undone.
I hope that isn't the case with your BÆRSkin hoodie.
Let me know kind sir.
I'll keep an eye on them
Good choice! Like the jacket. Green might be the best color anyway 😅
Cheers buddy
Looks good , yep seen them advertised I have a Austrian army one but no hood and it’s fantastic best fleece jacket I’ve had , but a hood would be good , may try one of these 👍 like the Chanel only just found you ,.
Excellent stuff, feel free to ask any questions on anything you see
‼️‼️ NOW this Going to be ‼️‼️
INTERESTING
❤️🏴 love from Scotland 🏴 ❤
It's going to get a good testing
Had mine for a week. So far I spot-on agree with you, Mr Sponsored, especially re the zip. I dunno about the zips you’re talking about but I thought I was going to have to go through all that palaver of having to return mine cos of its almost-inoperative main zip. Graphite and 5 mins of fiddling at least got it going/zipping but it certainly feels pretty poor-quality (and fiddly). It even drove me as far as Googling ‘zip-lubricants’! And I also agree about the adjustability of the hood. On my biggish head it feels FAR too big, so it feels - and IS - windy INSIDE! And yes, it's adjusting toggles are pretty fiddly too, too fiddly I'd say, especially outside on a nasty day.
So, as with you ... I’ll see. Yes, it’s certainly warm and certainly ‘pockety’ but the feel of its zip has rather undermined my confidence for this hoodie’s future. A pity if that's how it turns out.
PS. I’d have liked a proper ‘dedicated’ phone-pocket too. I’m right handed so on the left side, ideally outside but ok inside but properly big enough for modern phones and, essentially, with top zip (or and better, Velcro on a nasty day) entry so the phone can’t fall out. I find the existing pockets there are too small and their all-the-way-down side-openings/zips a lot too ‘dangerous’ for a phone.
Ah man, I hope it works out for you
Me too Mr Sponsored. Today it happens to be blowing a Westerly GALE in Highland Scotland - the worst so far this winter-of-storms and today's gale proves that it's not QUITE as windproof as I'd supposed. But that is a bit unfair on it - I'll agree that I should have a properly wind-proof outer-layer on top. But it sure does blow the too-big hood to b*ggery while I'm fiddling about with those toggles!
@@RedBranchBushcraft
@charlienairn783 now in fairness the Highlands of Scotland is like the west coast of Ireland, not a lot will stop the wind there
@@RedBranchBushcraft What, not even Donald Trump?!
Lol
the Carhart Loose Fit Heavy Weight Full Zip Rain Defender with the Polyester Fleece lining is the best hoodie ever made. It's only 60 bucks and it blows the Baerskin right out of the water. There is no comparison. Try a Carhart Loose Fit Rain Defender Hoodie and you will never even consider any other brand. It's not only comfortable, it's also durable and could last for close to a decade. Carhart jackets are Affordable, Durable, Warm and Comfortable. I have 4 kinds of Carharts hanging in my closet. All of them are over 5 years old and still as good as new or close to it.
You should see my other channel, I have lots of carhartt gear
I’ve got a Finisterre recycled wool fleece and I would never go back to polyester fleeces ever again, wearing a fleece that breathes is a game changer, my guess is the fleece got its name because it’s supposed to be the fleece from an animal.😂
That sounds really interesting, I've a Marino wool hoodie from Varusteleka that I love
Good British company too 👍🏻
@Legionnaire7777 this hurt I ordered a footlocker from Britain about 4-5 yes ago...no updates never received...should I take a chance....I like wool for wicking and heat preserve
@@Getvictd744 Finisterre is a local company to me and they have a very big customer support reputation.
Nice
I had ordered one and still waiting for delivery, when I went to track my package I was surprised that it was being delivered from China. If I knew it was made in china I would not have ordered it.
That's a pity
Hi there! Did you receive the package in the meantime?
I love mine which is black, has made me want to carry more EDC stuff, LOL. Cant go wrong with the pockets, you are less likely to lose (or have stolen) your wallet in an inside pocket. It feels like it will last a decade. Have not put a patch on mine, I prefer being lower profile.
Nice, happy Christmas
Will be interesting to hear what u reckon.
Yes, should be interesting
Because ykk zippers are known for there quality ...I myself have never had one fail..but I have had many other brands fail
Ah, I've never had any zips fail that I can remember
I Ordered one 12/07 still "on its way" Also it was shipped from China so i assume its made there. Not a big deal but they should mention a shipping lead time.
Hopefully it's with you soon
Hi there! Did you receive you BAERSkin hoodie in the meantime?
The pockets in the backside are for wearing the hoodie backwards….in case you dont want to show face
Back facing hand warmers
I liked the look of them but thought naaa just another flashy youtube advert! Be interesting to see how this holds up to your winter adventures Wooly... Then if it gets your approval the price will rocket lol 🤣👍
Lol, or plummet
Very reminiscent of the Helikon Tex “Patriot” hoodie I think.
I think it's a copy
Yep, I get those frequently. I think I will wait to get a trusted review , before I would consider buying one.
I'll test it over the winter
Bought one last winter and my zipper broke the first day I had it
@@fredstriker2042 thanks! 👍
YKK to zips, is what Levi is to jeans.👍🏾
Expensive?? Lol
Sticking with the trusty ol carhartt
It's hard to beat a carhartt
No ykk zips at that price! Ain't no way.
Cheers buddy
Just tested the Dutch Army 2cm bedroll
Its almost half the volume of my backpack, but only weighs in at twice a foamy.
Please test it mate.
It comes in at under twenty five quid, plus I dont need to scream in the night because it never deflates
Lololol, I'll have a look, any links
I just had a Google, I have about 20 of them here. British army 4 season roll mat, have a look and tell me what you think, seem the same
@@RedBranchBushcraft Very similar mate. Only the Dutch M90 is twice as thick. (some are literally two 1cm rolls laminated together)
Its an absolute beast. You could sleep on a frozen lake and still feel toasty. I hope Storm Babet hasnt been to miserable to you fella.
@TheWtfnonamez ah cool, I got flooded out this weekend
@@RedBranchBushcraft Im really sorry to hear mate. I hope nothing got damaged.
Poachers pocket is for cooling.
Ah, that's cool
So Wooly ... an update from my initial (and so-innocent!) comment of 2 months ago:-
Yes, I fell for a Baerskin 3.0 and I now increasingly feel like a TWAT for having fallen for the sheer ONSLAUGHT of Baerskin-hype.
Now 2 months the wiser and after 2 months of TRYING to love it, I would say:-
1. Yes, the Baerskin 3.0 is certainly very comfy (if bulky) indoors: but then ...
2. Outdoors, for me it's turning out to be one of life's little 'disasters'. Unlike my faithful old North Face and Berghaus fleeces it's not nearly windproof-enough and, and worse, quite-unlike them it's not-even-REMOTELY waterproof. This means that in my two European climates you almost-always need a wind-&/or-water-proof outer-layer on top - by which time it's all getting VERY bulky, cumbersome and inconvenient. And of course you then have to have an outer shell big enough to take a 3.0 - which my much-loved old Gortex isn’t. What do Baerskin expect? Me to buy a new outer-layer big enough to accommodate their advertising hype? No Sir!
3. I spend my time in both wet, drizzly and coldish Highland Scotland & also in dry but often equally-cold-in-winter and quite-often VERY windy Southern France with the famously-cold Mistral howling down off the Alps. Quite unlike my two trusty old fleeces, for wet drizzly climates the Baerskin 3.0 is in reality a SPONGE and if it ever does get wet it can soon feel like a soggy dead sheep round one's neck. For reliably-DRY and not-too-windy places (like the South of France when the Mistral isn’t blowing) it's not THAT far-off being as good as my old North Face and Berghaus fleeces still are outdoors IF (and only if) you can live with its sheer bulk
but ....
4. No matter where you are the thickness and fluffiness of its fleece may well be comfy (as well as bulky) but, and VERY unlike my old fleeces, it's completely impractical for anywhere dirty or dusty (inc. sawdust etc). So it's useless for many outside jobs - and, for the same reason, also useless in the workshop or the garage (or the kitchen!) indoors.
And then there's also the still-"mad" cold-&-uncomfy hood-size, the poor quality zips and draw-strings, the no-good-for-cell-phones side-zip pockets ... should I go on?
5. I read a review by one entirely-happy customer who said he'd bought two Baerskin 3s, one to wear around the house by day, another to wear in bed at night. That sounds about right to me!
6. So as I say, the Baerskin 3.0 has increasingly left me feeling like a TWAT, and after 2+ months of trying to grow to "love it", a TOTAL TWAT for having fallen for the hype about it.
(As a final thumbs-down 👎🖕👎 I did offer mine to one of my teen-age nephews. "F-off" was the not-unreasonable and surely-sensible answer.)
great comment , thanks for the update. sorry it didnt work out for you
@@RedBranchBushcraft You’re not the only one Wooly - I was full of hope!
Have you got any suggestions of what to replace the bl**dy thing with?
I rather imagine wool but it MUST be:
1. Entirely practical in outdoors Scotland for hours of walking/working/farming/foresting
So …
2. Pretty windproof and the more non-soggy shower/waterproof the better.
3. A hood sounded nice but isn’t essential - hats/bonnets may simply be better/more practical?
4. A “safe” exterior (so easy to get-to) phone-pocket wd be useful - even after a couple of months I got confused-and-frustrated/annoyed over what I’d put in which pocket in the Bearskin!
Thanks.
@charlienairn783 that's a tough you, your looking for z do it all jacket there . Best jacket I've ever worn is made by Hilltrek, made from ventile cotton , might time most boxes but not all , but worth a look. It's really hard to get a "one jacket for all" I find combos are best
@charlienairn783 if your thinking wool , vaursteleka have a great jacket, check my vaursteleka playlist
i have modified my own sweater for these here woods machete sheath attached to the back facing downward two multitool sheaths on my sweater nigh the chest
i am really trying to cristmas list this up to my fam
@arandomnightowl6731 nice
I like it. What size chest are you? Also what was the shirt that you took off?
I'm 38 chest, the jumper is by regatta
Can you do an unpaid version of this?
It's a first impressions video buddy
I was going to bite till you said 100% polyester.
Lots of these fleeces are made from recycled plastic bottles
I think the pockets in the back is for your female friend to place her hands inside the pockets to keep her hands worn
Lol, or their feet
Bad bad bad..from China buy American..all i can for this xmas

Hi there, we are glad to hear that! Did you receive it, how do you like it?
@@baerskintactical there are some comments about shipping you might be better at answering than me
@@baerskintactical no they have been sitting at the Usps in Jamaica Queens since the 19th....not your company's fault, just good ole American postal service.
@RedBranchBushcraft * update it's here....started moving in transit the day after you asked lol....so far so good 👍🏽...I'll update, but I'm sure there'll be no complaints
Every time a company uses the term "tactical," the word itself becomes more gay.
Lol, yes
I bought one because I work in winter time in the appalachian mountains, and the zipper broke the first day I bought it. Junk
Ah man , that sucks
Tacvasen do the same at the fraction the cost mate
I've got the Helikon Patriot fleece and bought my wife the Tacvasen but it's much thinner and no where near as well made. Good for the price but you really do get what you pay for.
Mine seems thick maybe it who gets the best material
@@stephen4600 maybe, the only reason I noticed is because I had something to compare it with. Having said that the Tac was £30 and the Helikon £50 but now the Helikon is £80! I don't think I'd pay that much for one.
Every thing just keeps getting more expensive
@@RedBranchBushcraft aye it does. Nature of the beast I suppose. They'll probably blame COVID lmao
Is it rain proof
I'm going to say shower proof , I haven't given it a good soaking yet
No!
It’s a sponge and so can quickly become a cold and soggy NIGHTMARE.
Cheers buddy
Looks like my old Helikon patriot.
Seems similar
The 2.0 is much better!
Really! What are the differences?
@@RedBranchBushcraft The fabric is slightly thicker
My wife just bought me a 3.0 for my birthday . I like the old sleeve toggles, but the 3.0 does have an inner pocket
@peterjanjanin9883 ah ok, how did it last ?
@RedBranchBushcraft the 2.0 is still going strong! There's been a little pilling, but that's to be expected. If you're a smoker, be careful. It burns easily
Instead of an M4 wouldn't you want an SA80. I know how you lads love those bullpups in the UK.
A steyr aug would suit better

lol, you got sucked in!
It's a free bee
Yours is entirely different from mine. I consider my BaerSkin Hoodie THE WORST GARMENT PURCHASE I'VE EVER MADE. I bought the hoodie in 3X and the body fits fine. But the arms are made for some pencil man, they are stretched tight from my wrists to my shoulders so I can't wear it over a long sleeve shirt. Yet, yours and other reviews, you have baggy arms on your jacket. And the hood on mine is apparently made for a 50X hoodie as it hangs all the way over my head down to my chin. No adjustment on the back of the hoodie to adjust how far over your head it goes and mine seriously completely comes down to the bottom of my chin, rendering the hoodie unwearable for me. Yours is entirely different fitting from the one I got!
I get NO RESPONSE from their customer service. And from what I've heard from others, returning it is impossible as you will pay more to ship it back to China than you paid for the hoodie and then they still might not refund your money.
That's crazy that there is such a difference, I'll message them and see if they will respond
I emailed my contact, hopefully he will reply to this
If they spent as much on design as they did on advertising the product would be completely different. They are a baggy mess of material. Just buy a northface or some other brand name.
So far so good for me,
No thanks.
No problem buddy
Received yours in 2 days, bull crap!!! I’m 2 months in on waiting with zero acknowledgment from customer service!!! Guess you have to be a bootlicker to get anywhere 👎🏼!!!
Thanks Jim , happy Christmas
You lose all credibility.
Cheers buddy, what makes you say that?
