advice wanted re hunting gear (clothing)


Recommended Posts

hi!

wanted some advice re: clothing esp if we have any american members.

 

i have used prologic max 4 parka and bibs( www.prologicfishing.com) for waterfowling and it is well suited for the winters in nothern england/yorkshire esp when one has to spend long hours outdoors without any cover.

 

I was thinking of buying some stuff from usa as it is cheaper there. but visiting cabelas website has left me confused as there are hundreds of products available and all seem to be good. readers reviews also didnt help much as one gets mixed replies.

 

I am looking for the following characteristics (in that order)

warmth+ dry (last hunt in -8.5 deg. C Plus winds; in a river estury+ mud)

good camo

Should have an inner pocket to hold cellphone

silent

i have shortlisted the following items. would be greatful for any reviews/comments/suggestions.

(is there any other site i should be looking at?)

 

1 Cabela's Late Season® Parka - Regular Item:UH-930886 (mossy oak new break up)

2 Cabela's Ultimate Suedeâ„¢ Weather-BLOCKâ„¢ 4-in-1 Parka Item:7IS-931205 (mossy oak new break up)

3 ArcticShield® H3 Parka Item:XH-960255 (mossey oak new break up)

4 Walls® Legend Insulated Coat Item:IJ-960409 (Realtree AP HD)

(note: omitted jackets on purpose as i want a long parka/coat)

 

bibs:

Cabela's Ultimate Suedeâ„¢ Weather-BLOCKâ„¢ Insulated Bibs Item:7IS-931208

 

Ive never tried coveralls. does anyone have experience of using coveralls? do i still need to wear a jacket on top?

 

waders:

1 Cabela's Roaring Forkâ„¢ Neoprene Wader Item:IJ-811200 (felt soles)

2 Cabela's 3mm Neostretchâ„¢ Neoprene Chest Waders with Lug Soles - Regular Item:IJ-830650

 

wanted to ask if lug soles or felt soles have any distinct advantages/ disadvantages. What about "stockingfoot waders? are they any good?

 

is there anything else im missing out ?(am considering buying a facemask)

 

would appreciate any input.

regards

shooter.

 

P.S. im not visiting usa personally so will be ordering online/ asking someone to pick it up for me.
