natural gear
 
i just bought a set of coverals on natural gears web site. They look like nice shades of gray should really blend into the trees. Who else has nature gear and whats your take on them? Do the deer look right through you all? I will be wearing carbon militay clothes under them. First test will be this fall, i bought them brand new on ebay for 35. Thanks you guys u really do help.

i bought these because i thought other brands are mostly to dark and would look like a blob in a tree.

I don't have any nat gear, but my buddy does and he really likes it.

And for 35 bucks I might have to spend a little more time in ebay!!

Natural gear is an exelent pattern for all types of woods..I would make sure and buy fleece though..the cotton is way to noisy..

I love my Nat Gear. The only problem is that I only have the lightweight stuff. I need to get the warmer gear for late season hunting. When I first got my Nat Gear I hung it and some Mossy Oak Break-up and Realtree in a tree next to each other and the Nat gear blew it away!! However, for spring turkey I will revert back to the darker patterns like mossy oak as the foliage is starting to get thicker then.

Have you ever worn those carbon clothes off of ebay? If not your in for a messy suprize. They are not cheap for nothing.

I thought the same thing when I first got my Natural Gear as well. Good news though, for this year they've got a new material out that's a LOT quieter than the old stuff. They've also got a new pattern out as well called SCII. It's the original pattern with an addition of a green moss and lichen element to help blend in during early season and in all different types of terrain. As soon as I get the rest of the information from them I'll make sure I put it up.

I agree with everyone else though - it's great camo. I have pictures of me setting out a CamTrakker this past fall and I almost couldn't believe how well the camo worked when I got them developed.

I have some Natural Gear and I absolutley love it. I have tried many different camo patterns and this is definitely one of the best. You may want to look at ASAT camo as well. Just another pattern that seems to work well.

If you bought what I think you did then you got "charcoaled" by a MIL issue MOPP suit designed for NBC warfare zones .
They make an excellent disposable form of scent containing clothing , and they work better than any commercial product that I've ever seen since they have more carbon than many of them . The ones I have , which I get from Sportsman's Guide for $15 for both jacket and pants , say that they have an average of 60 grams of unbonded activated carbon per square foot .
Basically , you wear it for up to 2 weeks when it gets cool enough to wear one and then toss it or use for insulated outerwear for awhile longer . They aren't washable , and don't really last long without frequent repair anyway since they were designed to be disposable .

Just a quick question for you all. Where do you buy your Nat Gear at? I like to find a place that has a moderate selection but can't. Nobody has any locally around me (at home or around school) and about the only place I can find it is in this random catalog that I received in the mail....can't think of the name of it though.

You can buy it direct from NatGear or you can find it on Ebay. Just do a search on natural gear. I believe Cabelas is starting to carry it as well.

RE: natural gear
 
Cabelas carries Natural Gear, but not their entire selection. You're better off buying directly from them online at www.naturalgear.com. Their full line of 05 products should be up for sale shortly.

Very nice looking pattern. I was considering purchasing down the road.

I picked up a pair of pants and from looking at their website I believe they are the 4x4 concealment pants. I used them for bowhunting and out west muley hunting and like them alot. Plan on picking up the jacket and I purposely bought the pants big so that I can layer underneath. They are too hot for turkey hunting for me as I get sweated up in a t shirt so I'll use them for fall hunting only. Definitely like the pattern on them and the quality seems good...

I was looking at a pair of insulated, waterproof bibs. Are they the type that people say are noisy??

I used to buy break-up, but now I am a NATGEAR person. After stalking to w/in 15 yards of a hen turkey in a field, I am convinced!
