Reviews

Great but tight

"Got this to add to my kit and I’m very happy with it. I’m 5’7” and 186 with Dad bod and an XL is a little tight. Not just around the belly, but the shoulders too. XXL would have been too big for certain. I does fit a certain need very well and it works just as I hoped it would"

— Doug C. (5/5)

Warmer than I was expecting!

"Thick, heavy and super warm. I bought this for elk in western Wyoming. It was dipping down cold enough to freeze water holes in the morning and this with a good base layer kept me almost to warm. Going to be a perfect mid layer for late season rifle."

290 fleece zip T

"Fit just as I was hoping. Wore it this past weekend for early morning fishing. The water was COLD but this worked out perfectly. Good motion capabilities without binding. Warm and comfortable. Lightweight and soft on the inside without the worry of seeds, grass and burrs getting stuck all over the outside. I will use this a lot!"
