Great cold weather jacket

A great cold weather coat. windproof, quiet not much more could be expected. I like the built-in muff but dislike the zipper angle. Just need time to get used to it, without the angle the muff couldn't happen. I would definitely buy again for cold weather stand hunting

Great Jacket

Fantastic jacket, and the warmest piece of gear that I have ever owned. I have worn this in 30 degree temps with 20-30 mph winds, 15-20 mph sustained winds and never felt the wind. The only complaint I could make, if pressed, is that I have to be careful whe putting the jacket on as I have heard what sounds like stitches tearing. I have not noticed any issues with seams, however.

Awesome Jacket!!

Have worn this jacket this past winter and loved every bit of it. Super thick and comfortable normally wear one layer under it and that's all you need. Love the muff pocket and place for the grunt call. Hands down best hunting jacket on the market for cold temps!

Great for Upper Midwest Stand Hunts

Extremely warm. Very quiet. Built in hand muff is warmer than most hand muffs that I have used before. This plus the bibs are extremely warm. I am from a much warmer climate originally and being in a tree stand below 20F is very tolerable for me with jacket and bibs + some midweight merino layers. Would recommend avoiding walking to stand with full system on as you can get a little warm. Cons: - Somewhat Bulky - Would like the hand muff to be a little higher on the jacket for saddle hunting, but otherwise great design and very warm.

Warmest, quietest jacket

These jackets are amazing for cold weather archery here in central Illinois. They don't inhibit your bow draw at all. There is a lot of planning that went into the design. From no fleece on the inside of your bow arm to an amazing built in hand muff with a cross the body zipper. I have one in Elevated II and Cover but got this black one to mess around the farm and when pushing snow on a fourwheeler. You won't regret getting this coat.

Great jacket

Love this jacket. Although after 50 years of zipping a jacket straight up and down it did take some getting used to the zipper. Extremely warm. Runs a little small and is hard to pack in a backpack due to the size but it keeps me in the stand instead of tapping out due to being cold.

Winter hunting

I needed a better jacket to help keep me warm and not let the cold winter air through during whitetail sits. This jacket impressed me the first time I wore it. I actually over layered and was a little too hot. The second time I just walked in with a mid merino long sleeve and then put the jacket on once I was up in the tree. I was really comfortable during my sit. An option for a hood on this jacket would be nice. Overall really happy I upgraded to this jacket.

It's warm

After some windy mornings hanging from pine trees I decided I would try the fanatic jacket. It runs a bit small, I heard threads popping with just a hoodie underneath, but no visible damage. You don't want wear this through the woods either, briars and burrs don't mix well with this fabric. But for packing in and putting on in the tree it works great. I wouldn't really consider it water resistant either, but it will keep you dry in a light rain. I haven't gotten cold wearing it, but didn't get real cold on any sits.

Fanatic Jacket and Bibs

I bought this setup towards the end of the season and only had the opportunity to use it a few times. I hunted in single digits with windshield well below 0. I hunted about 2. 5 hours and stayed perfectly warm. Can’t wait until next season.
