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 Outfit for Extreme Cold

My son bought himself this outfit (jacket and bibs) in OptiFade Elevated II for our weeklong rifle season back in November early December. He told me that he wanted something that will keep him warm. I tried it on and was impressed. After getting home from deer camp, in January I purchased the jacket and the bibs in XL for myself. One day this January, when it was in the teens, I wore it to the woods to check trail cameras. I was absolutely astonished at how well it kept me warm. I was there for several hours and not once did I get cold or even feel cool. Absolutely amazed!!! If you struggle keeping warm in cold temperatures, you need this outfit!! The price is high, but so far, I think it is worth the cost to stay in the woods all day without getting cold!!

Great jacket purpose built

Only issue as an older shooter w old shoulders, sleeve liners could be slicker material for easier on and off esp for the short zipper side.

Super warm & comfortable

Best jacket I’ve ever owned and there’s no close second. Have had it for two seasons now and use it not just for hunting but anytime I’ve got to be outdoors in the cold. So well thought out like all Sitka stuff. Absolutely love the pocket placements. There’s even a hand warmer pocket kind of like a quarterback uses or as you’d find with a sweatshirt hoodie.

Wore it last night hog hunting in 28° weather with just a short sleeve t-shirt under it and had absolutely no problem staying warm. The fanatic bibs are next on the list

Great overall. Zippers need improvement.

I purchased my first fanatic jacket and bibs about 10 years ago and never looked back. It is the best investment I ever made in late season hunting. 10 years (or more) later, the clothing is still providing me with the same protection as it did from the first day I purchased it. I will say that Sitka zippers are not the best and I have several pieces with zipper issues which has kept me from purchasing many of their items over the years. Every jacket I own of theirs has a zipper issue and the zippers are loud when in the stand. Hopefully, that has changed. It has been a few years since I purchased their products since a bad zipper can end a hunt pretty fast.

Warm in 10 degree weather

For the first time, I’ve finally found a line of clothing that truly keeps me warm in frigid temperatures. I can confidently hunt in single digit weather and still be comfortable and warm. The jacket and bibs are a solid investment. Well done, Sitka!

Needs to be reconfigured

Very bulky, hard to layer underneath. Definitely needs a hood. I'm also not crazy about the main zipper configuration. Oh yeah, the magnet in the collar also ripped twice. Definitely could have been made better.

This is a great late season jacket that surpassed my expectations this past season. Multiple long sits in an open tree stand proved it's worth through cold, wind, and a heavy snowfall. The jacket is silent and warm - without limiting my mobility. Great piece of gear!

Really nice quality! I was pleasantly surprised at the weight of this coat. Not near as heavy and bulky as expected. I’ve only used it at 28 degree + temperatures, which is too warm for this coat. Can’t wait to get out in some really cold temps to see how it performs.

Wish there was a hood option 5star though

I’ve been using the fanatic set for 5 deer seasons now. I live in northern MN where it really gets cold and I’m pretty impressed with the quietness, warmth and wind blocking. Only complaint is I really wish there was an option for a hood but I still give the set a 5 star

Amazingly warm

Was skeptical about how warm the Fanatic jacket and bibs could be as I've had quite a few different garments over the years. I get cold easily and nothing worked for me in the past. After wearing these in the low to mid 20s I can say that this is the first time I've been comfortable. Even my feet didn't get cold like they usually do because the rest of my body was so warm. Worth every penny!
