Re: Single-layer rain pants or rain pants over normal pants?
I would definitely have a pretty hard time paying full price for any of the under armour hunting gear...some winners locations carry it at certain times of the year though and my girlfriend always likes to check just in case, I swear she has more hunting gear than me and she's only been out once lol. She found some pants for me a while back from their storm series at like 70% off retail price, fairly breathable, 60g of insulation, extra (I think 80g) in the butt, padding in the knees and so far they've been totally waterproof, blood rinses right off. Might run a touch warm the first week of September but I still wore them Aug-Nov this year, just wore long johns like you said in the later season. I know some people don't like their stuff and I haven't tried much else from UA but after my experience so far with these I might actually consider paying full price, would still cringe though...I also haven't been caught in any downpours, probably lots of similar options out there as well. Gaiters are up there on my shopping list, any recommendations from the guys that mentioned them?
