Need input on my next Product
Being as this is my home away from home, and, I value everyone's opinions Iwould likesome input from any of you that want to help us before ordering my next product.We aregoing to be ordering somenew productwhich I need to get placed in the next few days. I know we need insulated cold weather gear.Another itemwe arelooking to add to our product line is fleece as a medium type garment. There are pros and cons to fleece, but the main thing with fleece is its quiet, warm, and comfortable. Im going to add a safety harness slot or hole with a flap on each chest item. You can also get some good water resistant treatments added to the fabric at the mill which I plan on doing with all our new product, its not that much more expensiveand I've personally witnessedwater resistant testing in the factory. I saw a piece of breathable plain 100% cotton fabric hold 1 quart of water for4 hours with no seeping or soaking and you can get it added to just about any fabric now. So, isfleece something I should add to our product line, or do we just go with cold weatherthinsulate stuff and what we currently have poly cotton brushed twill? Would you guys wear fleece pants or bibs, or just a jacket or pullover.
Thanks for any input.

RE: Need input on my next Product
After my first experience with fleece, I haven't bought any more except gloves. With all the beggars lice and other clinging stuff I always end up walking thru, I got tired of getting it all off or having it attach to all my other clothing when stored in the rubbermaid tubs after hunts. Nothing worse than getting to your stand and realizing that there's a burr in your longjohns[8D]
If I didn't have to worry about that, a fleece full zip jacket.

Zip up jacket and bibs are a tough combination to beat, both for versatility and in this case an added layer of warmth.
But....IMO, if used in a layering strategy, elastic waistband pants, no zip up, are the way to go.

I voted for the Full Zip and Regular pants..But you knew that already
I'm excited about this water resistant stuff, it's really gonna be the bomb! Thinking out loud ~ maybe a UCsock style arm guard to help keep the fleece out of a bowstring?
One of the drawbacks of fleece is the wind cuts through it. I wonder if some sort of wind liner is possible? Again just talking to hear myself lol..

I prefer shirts/pullovers with no buttons and pants that can use a belt.
EDIT: I do not really like fleece anything although I do have a pair of pants that are fleece.

Why does this post make me envision you laying around on the couch in your UC fleece sweats watching Oprah with a pint of Ben and Jerry's, Jerry Garcia ice cream
