Justin, this funny, you used to use Swanndri, and I just started using it. I love my Swanndri shirt, got caught in a down pour in Idaho while elk hunting, when it got back to camp I was dry as a bone from just above the knees all the way up to my head.
If I want or think I need camo, I use a ASAT 3D in the netted outfit right over my Swanndri. I was 3 feet from a coyote on the ground and never got busted with this set up.
Good luck

I've tried them all(Cabela's, King of the Mountain, Gray Wolf etc.) and find that I wear my Asbel wool more than any other. Perfect for the Texas/Oklahoma weather. Great for layering and u will not beat the price for the quality merchandise Teresa provides.

Just a thought but I use a leafy jacket along with a ghillie bonnie. I can wear anything under the leafy jacket. You can buy warm clothes that are not camo at a cheaper price usually.

What ever you chose it should be very quit. I would rather have a quit wool shirt from goodwill than a high dollar noisy camo shirt.
Most of my stuff is wool. My favorite out fit is a solid brown pendelton wool shirt with green wool pants from the army surplus store.

If I had to replace all my hunting clothes, I would probably go for whatever is most reasonably priced, whether it is commercial camo, military surplus or wool, at least for the outer layer. The key is base layers. That is where I would put the money. I like skiers' silk underwear combined with merino wool.

Material has been covered for an outer pattern I think there are only 2 to consider; ASAT & Predator.

More and more and more, I am going toward old school. Simple. Last night I watched my neighbor checking traps in his pasture. I felt bad for his son. They were wearing those Key coveralls and sweatshirts. The old man was comfortable no doubt but the kid was miserable. I sat undetected and cold in my treestand. When the does came by I got a shot but missed. Third time this year.
Years ago, I had some LL Bean predator camo that worked well. I don't think a guy should have to mortgage the house to buy camo nor donate plasma.

Wool and I use a golf shirt as an under layer to stop wind penetration. Have a Cam-Woolflage vest as a top layer under the leafy suit. Have to agree with ASAT and Predator. And Goodwill plaid wool shirts.

I like cabelas wooltimate or berber fleece. They come with the option of windstopper, which helps with warmth but I find it a little noisy. I also really like first lites stuff.
