I view all your videos. I’ve learned a lot from you. I’ve been hunting AR flooded public timber for 38 years. I switched to Sitka last year. As an older hunter I was, like, this is the gear for the young boys! I was a bottomland camo guy! Until, I got my first Sitka duck oven jacket! It was a game changer! Light, breathable, and very warm. Now, I’ve went full blown Sitka. Yes it is expensive, but I will be able to stay dry and warm! It’s worth the investment!!! Thank you for your content!
I bought SITKA gear back in 2013, I bought the merino base layer, mid weight zip tee, timberline pants and the cloudburst tips and bottoms. I still have all of it and use it every year. Definitely worth it. My one complaint is the merino, it’s itchy. The KUIU 145 merino baselayers are softer and not itchy, plus the pants have side zips for easy off and on.
Totally agree on Sitka; saw you were rocking the Dakota Hoody! I own that and the Dakota Jacket, but MISSED THE HOOD, so I just had a tailor install a full zipper in the hoody and now have the best of both worlds (highly recommended !). I do not own the chest waders; mainly price but also where I hunt there is no need unless you have to cross a drainage ditch, and that's what dogs are for. As far as the bibs go, I'd recommend going up 1 size than normal; more room for getting into your underneath pockets and bending.
Sitka for life. I have the Fanatic set, Equinox set, Stratus pants and vest, Celsius jacket, Core mid weight set, Core T shirt, Merino gloves, Fanatic gloves, Grinder hoodie, and heavy weight balaclava. I regret nothing.
I couldn't agree with you more. I've tried a number of other well known brands and in the end you end up spending more as the products don't last. Pricey, but well worth the investment if you know this is a lifestyle choice for you. Great video.
Both Sitka and KUIU are expensive but worth it . When you step up to the top level gear , you expect comfort in any situation with both brand you get that .. Both lifetime warranty and back their products .. I own both and love both .. Sitka is great .. just like simms and waders the best but it cost ya .. if your a guide or outfitter sign up on their sites , you’ll be happy you did .. makes it affordable ..
I’m a Realtree guy as far as camo goes, but was looking for something for cold weather. I like nomad, so might go with that. EDIT: I now own Sitka and will continue to buy more. This stuff is awesome. Took me a while to make a decision on it, but I finally did and I’m glad I went with it!
Im ready for next hunting season guys, I bought..... -Weatherby mk v back country TI, 6.5 Creedmoor obviously (4400.00$) -Nightforce ATCR scope (3600.00$) -Nosler cartridges (100.00$ for a box) -Sitka gear, pants jacket, gloves ect. (2000.00$) -Irish setter boots (400.00$) -Leupold binoculars (1500.00$) I am so fricken ready to hunt, probably gonna shoot a booner with this set up.
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!
Late to the video, which was very informative. I cannot tell you how impressed I am witht he Sitka clothing. I have the ambient jacket, their windproof jacket, and their pile windstopper whitetail system they have. It is a little "Tailored" to fit, so order a size up if in question. Having said that they fit great, are very warm, durable to stickers and briars, do not shrink in the wash, and is not made in CHINA like their competetors. Great clothing, I wish they would come out with different patterns like First Lite. This stupp is the most functional hunting clothing out there. Like an old Wichester lever or 30-06 of the 50's and 60's, this clothing is the one to buy with what is offered on the market. My only gripe is that I wish their jackets were a little longer, they ride up when you reach up and I wish they had more items that were merino underlayers. Those Vets and military folks, can sign up for professional rebate and get 20% off all the time.
I just checked some prices online, but this stuff really isn't that expensive... 269 dollars for a very good jacket is really cheap actually. Here in Europe we easily pay 450/500 Euros for a Harkila jacket and 300 euro for a pair of pants.... wich is 650 and 400 dollars (approx.)
I wear Sitka because of the patterns I have 2 patterns in 2 sets for Texas. Light weight and breathable for summer and the moderate for winter. It gets around 30-40 around here so I guess I’m lucky. I have the grey/tan for winter and the slightly greener for Summer and it is top notch gear that breaks up your outline perfectly imo
Have a Delta timber. I love it. Stuffs a little pricey but i plan to get whitetail gear and a hoody soon. Also, love the pattern and functionality. And the timber is perfect here in East Texas.
Oh I forgot to ask, which hoody is that? I plan to get one to go under my delta jacket. There is the gradient and dakota. Both seem about the same minus the gortex so im not sure whether to spend the extra. I mean I will have the delta on most times which blocks wind. Anyway just wondering. Thanks!
If you love Sitka and good gear, check out lifetime decoys Texas rigs. I checked out your Texas rigs video and you’ll be surprised by lifetime! I finally got their stuff this season and paired their rigs with tangle free weights...I actually don’t dread picking up decoys like I used to! 4 doz floaters picked up and ready for the haul out in 10 minuets...by myself!
but for real, you nailed the sizing statement.. it seems camo manufactures assumes everyone is a overweight midget when coming up with sizes.. im 6,3 220lbs and nothing aside from sitka and under armour fit me. its almost like they assume when wearing cheap camo you going to have 75 layers under it to take up the space
If the camo was different maybe, but it's still to expensive and keeping u warm isn't a good enough reason because I can where a wool fleece and a wind breaker and be fine.... I hunt in Canada, where ice forms in ur eyes... and yet my body is still toasty
Save some money and buy Cabelas MTO50. It may not have that cool factor but it just works. And this is coming from somebody that uses both. The incinerator is a very warm down/gore-Tex parka but it’s so tight in the arms that you can’t layer underneath it.
Thanks for the good review, BobbyGF. Do you dig the funky new fangled camo patterns? I'll admit, I'm a fan of the cattail/cornstalk pattern that the Realtree MAX line offers, but I'm definitely into expanding my horizons. We didn't have any fancy camo back in the 1980s when I was a little kid learning from Dad and we still killed plenty of duckers and goosers, so I think a good and proper hide is the most important, but wonder what your thoughts are on the patterns blending in when you're not in a blind. What say you mister man? Cheers from CO Front Range!
One of the first camp patterns was TREEBARK Realtree. Another early pattern from late 80 s early 90 s and still my overall favorite is the original BOTTOMLAND from Mossy Oak. In the 70 s I actually hand painted a hat for darker shades brown and tan because there wasn't much available. Then a solid olive drab was one of the few darker hats available for waterfowl and deer in bottoms.
I had Drake waterfowl.. When I got tired of getting wet I spent $40 more and got a hudson. Now I am happy, and dry. FWIW this stuff isn't expensive. You get what you pay for, if its really that far out of reach, then you should shop sales or save your money.
Zach Chauvin Agree on the Hudson. Primaloft insulation with Gore-Tex. Money well spent. However, the Dakota is nothing more than a $300 non waterproof windbreaker. I give it a Hard Pass.
I’m just looking into buying it and I wish I woulda bought it years ago. Don’t get me wrong I’ve killed plenty of whitetail and had a million dollars of fun outta Walmart clothes. But I’m tired of feeling like the Michelin man goin to my stand
Thanks for the video. I have just started to buy my Sitka appear. I am using the Fanatic whitetail system from Sitka. I agree that it's made for hunters. My question is, I would like to know more about the base layers. I had all the Frantic systems on and I am not as warm as I like. I like to know more about the other lines that Sitka has. That I can inter change with my frantic system the keep me warm on a treestand. Now understand I hunt in Michigan U.P. right off lake Superior. It gets pretty cold in December. Again thanks for your video.
I just bought my first Sitka cloths not because of the performance but because of the camo pattern. I never could get behind mossy oak or real tree products because the patterns were too specific. Tried natural gear years ago but found the pattern to be too brown. And just didn’t blend well enough.Now that I have the pants and shirt and love the fit but hate the price. Also have notice they are noisy at least the pants I’m hoping after wearing them for a while it or a wash the noise goes away. Hears to hoping they are as good as what people say
Why did you choose the hoodie over the jacket? I’m in the boat for buying either just wanted to see what your take on it was. I’m leaning towards the jacket for the Velcro straps on the wrists but didn’t know if that was worth the price difference.
Is sitka worth it link? I am sure it is considering the links you have in your description. It is over priced hands down. Good stuff but over priced. It is more of a click. "I wear stika bro"
im trying to make the call nomad or sitka and im a teen but im freezing in the 40 s with multiple layers so looking for better hunting apparel and tryning to decide
Maybe cause im not from america I dont understand but it seems your guys rifle restrictions for what you can use to hunt with are pretty liberal do you really need extensive camo when you have a rifle that could hit a deer from 500+ yards relatively easily...?
That coat was loud as heck when you were wearing it! I’ll stick with my Scentlok that is quiet, super warm and has the best scent control on the market (I deer hunt primarily).
plan on buying my first sitka jacket. the dilemma is which camo to get as i will be hunting in marshy type areas and timber along lakes and pipeline. any insight?
Which jacket is that one, looks good! I like there stuff and plan on buying the Hudson but seems like for $600 coat it would be modular. Like drakes lst parks. Seems like the Hudson would unzip into a Sitka vest and then you have the delta wading jacket for early spring teal hunts when you don't need insulation as much. Put them all back together and have the Hudson. No they want me to buy the $400 delta wading jacket for early, and a $600 hudson for late season. And a $300 hoody for mid. They are killing us.
“We’re all budget hunters, including me”, as he takes a trailer full of thousands of dollars in decoys towed behind his $70,000 truck to a property he leases carrying his Franchi 🤣
I don't have any camo, but I want to get some. My dad never hunted, so I never learned. Is there a particular system that would work well for anything from deer to turkey to waterfowl without having to buy several expensive items?
So I’m looking into buying a new coat or jacket and I’ve been looking into the Sitka jackets but I’m only seeing wind proof Sitka and I hunt in the rain ALOT and was wandering if they have anything that is waterproof?
My opinion.Sitka not worth 600 bucks.End of story.i will buy scent lock and predator camp coats and pants and boots for the price of an over priced jacket.I hunt in the Rockies in Montana where the conditions are by far more intense than most places.This company is for the same people that buy the most expensive Matthews bow or benelli shotgun because they think it will make them better when I can hunt circles around them(this guy actually seems knowledgeable though) in saying it’s most hunters that are obsessed with gear don’t know sh*t
Its also the most expensive jacket they have. All Im saying is for 500$ getting something this warm that will last a long time, top and bottom isn't bad. Ive owned a lot of the cabellas brand and other brands and I have never had one last past 2 years. The zipper is always the first thing to go.

$1,100 for the Incinerator coat n bibs?!?! Nah I’m good without it. When the day comes that I get cold really easy n fast then MAYBE I’d think about it. Until then pfffft not worth it for me.
I'm only replying to the title. MUST READ ALL.H NO WAY it's all marketing hipe using some nobody want a b self proclaimed professional Hunter to promote the product. I know this to be fact. All this younger hunters 20-30 somethings thinking they have done or created something new when all they are doing is reruns. They are the exact reason I left the hinting industry. On the other hand mass marketing is smart business. After all it's about making money. In reality it is not some new age better than thou product. It is good but not better. If it was great quality like products made years ago then you WOULDN'T have to buy it as often.
This is by far the weakest review or even analysis of a Hunting clothing brand I've seen. So its warm and comfortable..That's it?..I hunt in warm weather all year around..so I guess ill look for a different brand...lol.
BUCK RUSH I know they reference waterfowl hunting but also in the title it says is it hunting gear worth the price??? In my humble opinion it's no. Kuiu by far surpasses Sitka's quality and though they're still quite pricy it's usually more affordable than Sitka gear. Also I love there direct-to-consumer business model. No retailers, no mark-ups, no middleman. Which makes it easier for when they make changes to a product however small they may be it becomes immediately available and have to worry about when you're local outdoor sports shop gets the newest thing or upgrades, besides the fact they still want to sell everything regardless if it's out of season. Again here they talk about waterfowl and you're right Kuiu does not target that field. They are more specialized toward Big game in particular elk and sheep he hunting hence their logo.
I waterfowl hunt with the kuiu guys, love them! Always wore Sitka and wore kuiu for archery this season for the first time. Great gear for sure! But when the temps hit below zero...Sitka has it goin on! You can’t go wrong with kuiu, Sitka or UA. But certain situations call for certain items. I’ll never wear Sitka again in early archery when it’s pushin 100*
Kuiu does make good gear but its not as good as sitka. Sitka is the only company that test there gear after they have died it. Sitka's gear also preforms better than there advertised specs, you can't say that for kuiu. They all make good gear you are kind of splitting hairs.

A rnold Wow what a difference in price.! 300 for a coat or jacket is still viewed as being very expensive here in the states
since a few years we have some cheaper brands like Seeland and Solognac though :)
you forgot to mention fjellreven, their poncho is 450usd now, thats excluding shipping.
This isn't Europe

If you're watching this hear me out. I buy drake mid layers when they're on sale and sitka outer wear for the camo pattern and weather resistance.

J
Does ice actually form in ur eyes
Blaine Renn it can if it’s so cold
Natural gear is warmer and has a better camo pattern, also cost a 1/3-1/4 of Sitka
But that's the fun of duck hunting, getting cold and wet
this mans a real duck hunter
Try Filson it’s around the same price but the Camo doesn’t look weird so you can match with other brands instead of having to buy all one brand
Good review man I like it!
Goob job! :) Keep it up!
Save some money and buy Cabelas MTO50. It may not have that cool factor but it just works. And this is coming from somebody that uses both. The incinerator is a very warm down/gore-Tex parka but it’s so tight in the arms that you can’t layer underneath it.
Great video and review brother. Definitely true it’s worth every penny.
awesome videos keep them coming!
I will say this Sitka could market ice cubes to Eskimos . Even on sale it is outrageously priced.
It’s not about the expensive brands. It about the person who experience hunting that gets the job done
Thanks for the good review, BobbyGF. Do you dig the funky new fangled camo patterns? I'll admit, I'm a fan of the cattail/cornstalk pattern that the Realtree MAX line offers, but I'm definitely into expanding my horizons.

Yup The optifade will eventually comment every brand. The technology has been put into the optifade and yes it works
Well
One of the first camp patterns was TREEBARK Realtree. Another early pattern from late 80 s early 90 s and still my overall favorite is the original BOTTOMLAND from Mossy Oak. In the 70 s I actually hand painted a hat for darker shades brown and tan because there wasn't much available. Then a solid olive drab was one of the few darker hats available for waterfowl and deer in bottoms.

Agree on the Hudson. Primaloft insulation with Gore-Tex. Money well spent.
However, the Dakota is nothing more than a $300 non waterproof windbreaker. I give it a Hard Pass.
You can resell this gear at pretty close what you bought it.
keep them coming!

Proper layering makes you warm bro....not price...

Great review- nice piece of kit 👍 liked and subbed ATB Mark.
Worth every penny!!!!
Is sitka worth it link? I am sure it is considering the links you have in your description. It is over priced hands down. Good stuff but over priced. It is more of a click. "I wear stika bro"
I've seen guys successfully hunt in blue jeans. Hunting is like 50% luck the rest is knowing the area.
Right, most people that buy clothes like these are too lazy to go into the woods and find a deer
im trying to make the call nomad or sitka and im a teen but im freezing in the 40 s with multiple layers so looking for better hunting apparel and tryning to decide
Do you think the quality is still the same since the guys who founded Sitka sold it? and is it still made in China?
I noticed your delta jacket has insulation in it. The new one doesn't. What current jacket would you get?
Maybe cause im not from america I dont understand but it seems your guys rifle restrictions for what you can use to hunt with are pretty liberal do you really need extensive camo when you have a rifle that could hit a deer from 500+ yards relatively easily...?
Naaa, my $50 hunting gear does the job just fine. Not paying $300 for a coat........
That coat was loud as heck when you were wearing it! I’ll stick with my Scentlok that is quiet, super warm and has the best scent control on the market (I deer hunt primarily).
What kind of Sitka stuff do you where. What do u think of it and how warm is it ?
Its worth the money simple as that
plan on buying my first sitka jacket. the dilemma is which camo to get as i will be hunting in marshy type areas and timber along lakes and pipeline. any insight?
Do you wear your Sitka waterfowl camo for deer and turkey or do you have a second and/or third set for different game?
Which jacket is that one, looks good!
I like there stuff and plan on buying the Hudson but seems like for $600 coat it would be modular. Like drakes lst parks. Seems like the Hudson would unzip into a Sitka vest and then you have the delta wading jacket for early spring teal hunts when you don't need insulation as much. Put them all back together and have the Hudson. No they want me to buy the $400 delta wading jacket for early, and a $600 hudson for late season. And a $300 hoody for mid. They are killing us.
Clint E I bought my Hudson jacket a few months ago and I love it. Very comfortable, very warm, and worth the money IMO.

Dakota Denney Cloudburst is around the $350 range and is supposed to be %100 waterproof

Yes it is
Your my hero
can u do sitka vs kuiu
I checked cabelas and they had hundred dollars of clothing
Just gotta find the “huntest” jacket lol
If you want to be cheap. Go for Walmart or fleet farm brand. If you don't care how much and its good quality gear. Get sitka. I strongly recommend it.
Would a XL fit my dad he's 6'2 200 something pounds kinda skinny for his age
+Joey Trout yep
Short answer No.
Everyone know the only reason they buy it is for the trendy look
There is a reason the military got rid of digital camo...it's because it doesn't work
The military isn’t trying to stay hidden from big game or waterfowl 🙄.
Lol they still wear digital camo
I've killed BC deer without it. Scentloc is expensive enough. I killed big deer before that too!
He literally said "I'm not saying you have to have it to have great hunts" Did you even watch the video?
The new waders are going to be $900 for uninsulated
My opinion.Sitka not worth 600 bucks.End of story.i will buy scent lock and predator camp coats and pants and boots for the price of an over priced jacket.I hunt in the Rockies in Montana where the conditions are by far more intense than most places.This company is for the same people that buy the most expensive Matthews bow or benelli shotgun because they think it will make them better when I can hunt circles around them(this guy actually seems knowledgeable though) in saying it’s most hunters that are obsessed with gear don’t know sh*t
I'll stick to Walmart camo and hand me downs out of my price range
Upstate Angler unfortunately it's too pricey for a lot of people.
Yeah I mean I'm sure it's great gear but I didn't even pay 500 bucks for my shotgun let alone a jacket
You can get top and bottom for 500.
The incinerator jacket was 599
Its also the most expensive jacket they have. All Im saying is for 500$ getting something this warm that will last a long time, top and bottom isn't bad. Ive owned a lot of the cabellas brand and other brands and I have never had one last past 2 years. The zipper is always the first thing to go.
No it is absolutely not worth the money... insanely high priced
Yeah, if you like buying from China.
What jacket are you wearing?
+Austin Carter Dakota
The big game stuff is way worth it.
Jacob Trent yea I'll tell ya it changes things when you can actually be warm and not be shivering all the time
That jacket is DOPE
I'm the huntest bastard in these comments. Wooooo
Made in china?
No clothing made in China, should cost that much. Sitka is why over priced.
that’s my biggest complaint lol
cost them fucking jack to make that shit and % margin is marked tf up
That jacket is still to big for you it’s supposed to be tight
No its supposed to be like that
Below 0 ha im from Canada im wonder about -47
Carhartt with some cheap camo shit over it. As long as your neck and balls stay warm you'll be fine

$1,100 for the Incinerator coat n bibs?!?! Nah I’m good without it. When the day comes that I get cold really easy n fast then MAYBE I’d think about it. Until then pfffft not worth it for me.
I'm only replying to the title. MUST READ ALL.H NO WAY it's all marketing hipe using some nobody want a b self proclaimed professional Hunter to promote the product. I know this to be fact. All this younger hunters 20-30 somethings thinking they have done or created something new when all they are doing is reruns. They are the exact reason I left the hinting industry. On the other hand mass marketing is smart business. After all it's about making money. In reality it is not some new age better than thou product. It is good but not better. If it was great quality like products made years ago then you WOULDN'T have to buy it as often.
This is by far the weakest review or even analysis of a Hunting clothing brand I've seen.
So its warm and comfortable..That's it?..I hunt in warm weather all year around..so I guess ill look for a different brand...lol.
Review shiver shield before you call Sitka the best .
It's good but it don't beat Kuiu!
+Aitor Navarro This is the second time I've heard this
Aitor Navarro that isn't even waterfowl clothing
BUCK RUSH I know they reference waterfowl hunting but also in the title it says is it hunting gear worth the price??? In my humble opinion it's no. Kuiu by far surpasses Sitka's quality and though they're still quite pricy it's usually more affordable than Sitka gear. Also I love there direct-to-consumer business model. No retailers, no mark-ups, no middleman. Which makes it easier for when they make changes to a product however small they may be it becomes immediately available and have to worry about when you're local outdoor sports shop gets the newest thing or upgrades, besides the fact they still want to sell everything regardless if it's out of season. Again here they talk about waterfowl and you're right Kuiu does not target that field. They are more specialized toward Big game in particular elk and sheep he hunting hence their logo.
I waterfowl hunt with the kuiu guys, love them! Always wore Sitka and wore kuiu for archery this season for the first time. Great gear for sure! But when the temps hit below zero...Sitka has it goin on! You can’t go wrong with kuiu, Sitka or UA. But certain situations call for certain items. I’ll never wear Sitka again in early archery when it’s pushin 100*
Kuiu does make good gear but its not as good as sitka. Sitka is the only company that test there gear after they have died it. Sitka's gear also preforms better than there advertised specs, you can't say that for kuiu. They all make good gear you are kind of splitting hairs.
