I hate straight Red and Black. Its just a personal thing.

I have a red black and green one that I love. I like all the other color patterns as well.

If I remember I will post a picture.
Relax,

I have a red/black plaid Filson Cruiser coat -- expensive, but worth it. I am sure Charlie will forgive me for the red/black.

It is warm and darn near wind proof. It has a double thick back and front pockets that are very big and useful. Since deer see red as gray, it is pretty good cold weather camo. And wool is always quiet.

I love Filson wool as it's 100% wool.  I had the Woolrich coat which is an 80/20 wool/nylon blend.  That stuff would make a rock itch.

Love the pattern, hate Woolrich's material.

I am a plaid guy. That has been the majority of what I have been wearing this season. Lots of close encounters,and that is from the ground. Heres my lineup.....

Mines a brown plaid Woolrich doesn't make me itch a bit.

Have a big bunch of wool much plaid included. My sweaters AND coats must not be too thick as to bother my release in any way including the aftershot.

And it likely looks about like this to Mr.Buck.    :thumbsup:  

 

Better than most "busy" modern camo that just looks like a dark human from 50 yards away.

When I get bored I grayscale color images to see what the patterns may look like to a deer (though I am told they can see colors into the blue & UV register a bit so we likely can't judge truly this way).  Plaids do very well in cover.

I got the woolrich red and black and works well in gun season. I've been wearing solids, olive, green and dark brown mixed and haven't had any deer see me. Walked up on a doe Wed. and got within 15 yards from where she was bedded before she spotted me. Been wearing cheap Dickey brown work pants and they have been  great hunting pants. Gray is also a good solid color that blends well in the woods.

I love the green and black plaid.  Here's a couple...

 

 

 

I spent a bunch of cash on Kuiu, and it is fantastic, but I am still most likely to be seen wearing green and black or grey wool.  Love the stuff.
