Just wondering if anyone has clothes from the Huntshield brand at Canadian tire. They seem to be well made with decent materials. At the least they seem to mimic higher end more brand names, but a fair bit cheaper. Just looking for opinions on quality, durability etc
I have the coat and overall fall/winter bibs. The only complaint I have is the zippers at boot opening collected tiny ice balls (when snowshoeing) and eventually ripped off. I wear winter whites (army surplus) when yote hunting and it keeps the broken zippers closed. As for warmth, good, but I layer in the winter. The coat has tons of pockets and it does "repel" water, but eventually gets wet. I use both all season when needed, no issues other zipper. But lets be clear..I am cheap and if I could afford the best I would buy...but like said I am cheap. For fall duck hunting and rain, TSC has some good rainsuits that keeps you dry.
Saw them a few times. And tried it on just out of curiousity. Found it incredibly heavy and bulky.
That was my thought exactly.. even if I did layer, that stuff seems like it might cause me to fatigue quicker on a hike in the bush. I do like the price of the stuff though.
Ya kinda of what I expected. The price point is kinda nice but don't want to much bulk
I was at CT today, tried the huntshield jacket on.. its nice but it's TOO bulky for me. I bought a Rocky jacket instead, I have tonnes of stuff that I use from work (military) so I'm just going to layer with that stuff. Still on the hunt for some decent pants!
I got the deer hunting coat yesterday. Its not that bulky when you take the inner jacket off. I only need a deer hunting coat for up north. for the sale price its not bad. like all the pockets and that they have zippers not Velcro.
Isn't the Rocky RealTree pants good enough? I got them today at CT on Sale.Quote:

Scentlock has good quality stuff too.
splureged and bought some gently used sitka fanatic bibs and jacket last yr....stuff is amazing and worth every penny. Also like my scentlok timberfleece for earlier to mid season.
Check out rivers west gear
they seamed a bit noisy to me
I can write a review for these for sure;Quote:

Got the large size (i'm 36) so its quite snug in there. already spent 10km walking in them; waterproof to ankle high - yes (don't have waders). very warm at 15+ degrees. it feels like sauna in my legs after 3km walk. noise is a factor when pants rub against each other, i noticed that it's the bottom part that causes the noise.
for the price i'm happy with it. well its also my first set so.... :-)
