Cold Weather Suit?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p></o:p>

Looking for input on what is a good cold weather suit. I personally prefer the bibb pants and a matching coat that goes over the pants so that they can be worn separately or together.<o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Around 25 years ago I bought a fluorescent camo suit, bibs and coat, from Sportsman’s Warehouse. It was the warmest and most versatile suit I ever saw. Plenty of pockets with Velcro closures, game pouch in the back, detachable hood, adjustable cuffs on the coat sleeves, long zippers in the legs for easy foot insertion even with heavy boots on, straps inside the coat so that you could slip the coat off but it was still attached to your back so you could move around without having to carry it.:)
After 25 years, the fish guts, deer blood, bird entrails, insulation packing down,and hard used it is time for a new suit.:mad: <o:p></o:p>
<o:p> </o:p>
Would be interested in getting some input from members about what they are wearing, what they like, why they like it and sources and prices for the same. I'm looking around on the internet now. It would appear that I missed the good sales at Dick's recently. Was there the other day and most everything left was crap.:eek:

Thanks for the input.:D <o:p></o:p>
