I use scent lok mostly but I have scent blocker pants. I have the Scent lok MT050 and I love it.. I also have the savana scent lok. BUT... I feel without the hood AND gloves then you might as well just play the wind. I have a scent blocker hood that is great. I wouldnt hunt without it. Most winds you can forget once you are set up and stop moving. MUST have the hood and gloves... your hands and breath are the worst!!! I dont wash mine anymore than I have to but the newer stuff can handle it better than the original. I have the scent lok Wolverine boots also and they are great
