Best thermal underwear???
#21
Walking in w/ UA is fine. Sitting in a stand for a few hours in the UA doesn't get the job done. Unless, I'm in my Heavy Cabelas Suits. I spent the crazy money, and the new technology hasn't worked out for me. At 6'2" and 270lbs. it's not like I'm a little guy that gets cold easily.
I'm going back to old school fleece. I can't afford to waste a good hunting day being cold.

I don't think there are many women on this website, but if any of the guys have wives that hunt that might be a good website to look at. I also am wondering if you work for that company since it's in the UK and there aren't even US prices on there?

I have UA cold gear. It's great if you are working, walking, doing activity. If you are sitting it makes me feel colder than I would be without it.
For stand hunting/sitting there is an army surplus store not far from where I work. I buy their thick polypropylene leggings and 1/4 zip top. They keep me warm when sitting but if you have to hike a ways don't layer up until you get to the stand or you will sweat quite a bit thus making you cold when as you sit and start to cool down.
When it gets super cold I just put on my carhart bibs and coat and am fine in really cold temps. My feet will get cols before my body does. What helps most is a poly t-shirt, poly long sleeve shirt, poly vest, then a good insulated coat that cuts wind.

I tried the SmartWool 250's this week during opening deer rifle season. I like them, as they are very warm. In fact, down to the 40's, I am comfortable wearing just the SmartWool 250 crew top with no jacket. In the 30's, I'll want to throw on a good jacket on top of the top layer, but I am very impressed with the performance of the SmartWool 250 gear. Plus wool wicks sweat and keeps you warm even if you get wet (in the rain, for example).
