Default Best Big Game Clothing on the Market?????

I have a super slam parka and bibs outfit now that is about 6 years old, Its a warm suit but has the nappy fleece on the outside and gets hung up in the briars. Looking to move into the newer hydra suedes or hryda fleece outfits. Does anyone have any suggestions? I hunt in temps ranging from-20 to + 30 in this suit.

Thanks,

I have no experience with either of those two types of garments. However, I have used both Revolution Fleece and MT050 for several years now. They have yet to let me down in terms of their protection from the elements or their comfort level. I would highly recommend either.

I was thinking about the MTO50 which has hrda fleece shell, or the Browning outfit with the Hydra suede.

I have the MTO50 rain gear and the bibs leaked through on New years day. Cabeles said they would honor it and replace for free.

That is the other positive aspect of the two garments I listed. The warranty service is second to none. My MT050 garment is the one piece insulated coverall. I actually wore it once in temperatures below 0 Fahrehneit and it kept me warm and comfy (though my hands got cold..need better gloves...). I use the Revolution Fleece Pullover and Pants...both insulated and uninsulated versions...and really think they offer similar performance to the MT050 outfit without as stiff of a price tag.

I would go with the MT050. I have the insulated bids and uninsulated pants which are about 6 years old. I have patch some of the holes on the pants which has seen a great deal of use, but they are still giving very good service. The bib's adjustment buckles tend to slide so I just tape them in position. I do a lot of hunting where there are some thick huckleberries, if you ever have experienced them you know how much of a pain they are, and they will not stick to the pants or bibs.

The new Sitka clothing is insanely NICE. They are coming out with the ASAT pattern soon. We're probably going to add it this year.

MT050 is good stuff - I've got some myself. However, I've found anything that is waterproof (mt050, silent plus) ends up being noisy in really cold weather (below freezing).
