Default RE: Cold weather clothing

Kristen ,
I took a look at the suit at the TSS Equipment site , and it struck me as being little more than a sleeping bag with legs . It also looked more than a little cumbersome for still hunting since you had to unzip it to use your weapon , and where would your heat go when it' s unzipped ? Straight up . I' d also hate to be a tree stand bowhunter wearing it . With or without the belt you still have to unzip and get to your bow without falling while wearing a cumbersome garment . That' s a lot of movement when you' re trying to hide from a whitetail .

I' ve seen plenty of coveralls and sleeping bags with Super Thinsulate rated to below zero , and most of them cost far less than $300 . I believe I' ll stick with Ballistictip' s sleeping bag idea . Get it if you think it will work for you . FYI: The MOPP suits I wear force me to leave the woods when it gets over 50 degrees due to their insulating qualities , now if I can just conquer those cold feet ...
