Quiet bowhunting jacket/pants
I bought a warm Whitewater fleece, but immediately when I got it the darn nylon liner was much noiser than anticipated.
I'm not real high on Scentlok/block because of the price and I dont think is what it is built up to be. But, the Dream Season Scentblock is one sweet jacket. I like wool, but I use wool pants for gun, and when they get wet they have an orer in my opinion?
Any recommendations - has to be quiet, and warm for late season bow in Wisconsin, thanks.

I order a parka and bibs from Cabelas.
They are Archers Choice.
total for both was 150 bucks.
They are made of Cotton and polyester.
I think they are very quiet and they also come with 7 oz of insulation.

I picked up the Columbia wool bibs and jacket last year at Scheels , $69 for bibs and $79 for jacket , best purchase I've made in a long time. Can't get any quieter , and you'll be nice and warm during late season.
edited to add: The perfect compliment to the Columbiabibs and jacket is a wool sweater with the wind blocker. I think I paid around $100 for it from Cabelas. I hunted late season last year when it was a balmy8 degrees with a wind chill of - 10 and the only part of me that got cold was my toes.
Now I need a good pair of boots!

Any of the Cabelas Fleece garments lined with Dry Plus have a very slight "whoosh" sound when you move. Nothing to spook game but noticeable to the hunter. I don't know if this would be an issue with you or not.
On the other hand, you may try Cabelas Microtex garments. No noise, very durable, insulated and uninsulated and very colorfast. Reasonably priced too.

I bought the Dream Season Pants and have loved them. Very quiet and comfortable. A little pricey though.
I have the Cabela's Revolution Fleece Pullover in Scentlock and Love it. It is my most favorite piece of hunting clothing. Very quiet and it is made with the bowhunter in mind with no movement restrictions or bulk.
