Badlands Rack Attack: We're Back and Goodbye 2024

[@toddolheiser9590]

I love Badlands gear. The different patterns and various configurations allow me to blend in and be comfortable no matter what environment I'm hunting in. Badlands is truly one of the most versatile and high quality gear on the market with a warranty that can’t be beat. I’m also super stoked Bandlands brought their line of socks back. I wear them daily.

[@icewater31]

Badlands gear truly lives up to its name - it’s badass! I’ve been incredibly impressed with the quality and durability of every piece I’ve purchased. From the moment I put it on, I can feel the difference. The innovative designs and cutting-edge technology make it the perfect gear for any outdoor enthusiast. Whether I’m hiking, hunting, or camping, Badlands has me covered. I’ve especially enjoyed taking advantage of the recent holiday deals. It’s the perfect time to stock up on essential gear and treat yourself to something new. Keep up the great work, Badlands! I can’t wait to see what you come up with next year

[@BadlandsGear]

You really embraced the flattery.....smart! Thanks for using the gear....2025 is going to be AWESOME!

[@ZachHallett]

I stumbled onto this on your TikTok and came here to watch more of the previous rack attacks. I look forward to seeing more, great content keep it up!

[@mattlesmeister401]

Glad the Rack Attack is back!! love watching these videos!! Great work Blake

[@BadlandsGear]

Good to be back! We're looking forward to a STELLAR year for Rack Attack and Badlands in 2025. Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

[@hunteradamson5024]

Badlands is onward and upward from here! Best in the business!

[@BadlandsGear]

Onward and upward....a great slogan for Badlands for 2025!

[@platinumpursuitoutdoors]

Going on year number 10 using Badlands. Looking good!

[@BadlandsGear]

Your 10 year anniversary....congrats! Let's go for 10 more!

[@b.hudgens3376]

The fan display was on point. Can't wait to try the gear out.

[@BadlandsGear]

Stop waiting and make it happen!

[@sireiln948]

So glad to have this back! I love my silens hoodie and can’t wait to get more! So excited for what’s to come in 2025!

[@BadlandsGear]

So excited to be back!

[@BWC2020]

Great to see rack attack back! Looking forward to seeing some of the upcoming gear reviews and future episodes!

[@BadlandsGear]

We've got some awesome things to talk about! Thanks for watching!

[@forrestcalvert257]

Badlands gear has truly made a difference in my hunts! I’ve been using the eastern day pack for many years, and use my original mag bino case for competitive Archery and the quality is unmatched. The durability, comfort, and smart design have helped me stay organized and focused, even on challenging hunts. Thanks for creating gear that’s built for real hunters and makes the experience so much better!

[@BadlandsGear]

Our pleasure! Good luck in your competitions. My only competition left for 2024 is seeing how much candy, roast beef and egg nog my body can safely handle.

[@daneyoutz5185]

Yooooo! Welcome back! I've missed these little gear reviews/previews. Looking forward to more content, keep 'em coming.

[@BadlandsGear]

You keep watching...we'll keep filming.

[@Mel-o2c2s]

I love you guys. I wear your gear and I've bought my family your gear. I bought my 75 year old grandpa your vest he loves it and said it's warner than any other gear! My dad has your gear, and he was wearing it when he killed his muley this year. We had 4 buck tags with all my family, and it's so awesome we all wear badlands! My 5 year old son loves watching hunting videos and has been watching some of your stuff! I actually got my son a badlands youth hat for Christmas on sale and had to snag the black camo riflecase for the husband. You guys are awesome. I'm so happy you got an awesome muley in Colorado! My family is in Colorado, and I'm blessed to live here and hunt here. Hope you get a Colorado bull sometime!

[@BadlandsGear]

Incredible! We love to hear about families making memories together on the hunt. It's a special thing! Would love to see a picture of the family all in their Badlands gear!

[@Cyrusx75]

You guys ate like kings!! Looks like you had a great time!

[@chancelee8368]

I have both the OG and FX and am super excited to get some GT gear! As a guide in NM this gear has been used HARD and still continues to amaze me! Thank you for developing such amazing products!

[@dustintoney93]

I picked up the Rise Pro Jacket and pants a month or so ago and used them for active whitetail hunting and was very impressed. They are extremely wind resistant. I haven't got to try them when there's a bitter cold day but they are truly worth it. Glad the Rack Attack is back!

[@kevinlindo4906]

I have been using badlands gear for 15 years and love it. Love the OG camo pattern and accessories offered.

[@BadlandsGear]

15 years! That's awesome. Thanks so much for rocking the gear for a decade and a half!

[@Preston.Whiteley]

Thank you for showing the wind weave fabric. I have beening talking it up to my wife hoping to get some under the Christmas tree this year. I have been waiting for Rack Attack to return. The set looks great. Thank you for bringing it back.

[@BadlandsGear]

We're crossing our fingers for you that some shows up under the tree! Wind Weave is no joke!

[@seanwilliams639]

The new wind weave seems like a win! Really appreciate the focus on the Whitetail line the Rise Pro seems like a great start!

[@keegan_mcwethy]

This whitetail season on the last sit of our 5 day deer camp with my brothers I was blessed to get my first buck! It’s surreal honestly. Basically everything I know about hunting my brother and I have taught ourselves. It’s taken me a long time to get a buck. I’ve hunted pretty hard the last four years with my bow only but 6 total with a rifle before those 4 with no success so it’s really surreal for me to have got my first buck and with a bow just like I wanted. This week I’ve made memories I’ll never forget that’s for sure! My badlands gear was a huge piece of the puzzle for me. It kept me warm and comfortable in the stand all week! My Badlands pack held all my gear as we put in some distance in the East Tennessee mountains. I’m completely sold on Badlands gear after last season with a couple pieces then getting more this season.

[@BadlandsGear]

That's incredible! Congrats on your first buck, such a great milestone. Way to stick with it and get it done!

[@zjmccluskey]

Got my first Badlands gear this year and am loving it so far. Will definitely be getting more!

[@BadlandsGear]

Awesome! Have a very Merry Christmas!

[@JamesChambers-j1d]

Great video and recap of the year. I'm new to hunting this year and was really drawn to Badlands gear, from packs to clothing. Looking forward to what the new year brings with your products.

[@BadlandsGear]

We're looking forward to the new year as well!

[@elkslayer3576]

I enjoyed this gear so much I got my first set this year after having my super day pack for years. I love the quality you make all your gear of I personally love the flex hoodie during archery season here in Idaho. I hope to get more gear in the future especially the gt color way.

[@BadlandsGear]

Flex is money...we wear it all the time. The new GT is MONEY, you can't go wrong.

[@BadHabitsGolf]

Bought a backpack a few years ago and have absolutely loved it. I love it so much that I have most of the warm weather gear in the approach fx and a bunch of it in the colder climate stuff. I even started wearing the lifestyle gear at work every day and even make it work for the nights out with the lady haha. I haven't bought anything I haven't liked so keep doing what you're doing!

[@BadlandsGear]

That's great to hear! How about on the golf course? Ever rocked the gear out there? I've worn the Fortis pants on the course before. Shocker...it didn't help my golf game but I was comfortable at least.

[@DougPugh-lb7ch]

Awesome video. Especially the Oklahoma hunt. I live in Craig county close to where you were hunting. Love the location and seeing the results of the hunt. I have a back story to this hunt. Great guys involved in this hunt! I was able to see some of the Badlands Gear while visiting deer camp. Absolutely impressed with it and looking forward to purchase for new year hunting.

[@BadlandsGear]

That's awesome....we were right in your neighborhood. It was an awesome deer camp!

[@chrisjanes3822]

I rocked my complete RISE PRO set all fall for Bear and Whitetail. Got it bloody in October! Combined with my algus, percora, Mutton or Calor layering system its been flawless all season. Great job guys @Blake still waiting to buy that fancy Prime RVX34

[@CameronBeachy-i8k]

Absolutely love ya'lls gear! Have two of your packs and love both!

[@BadlandsGear]

That's awesome! Now you just need to rock some apparel!

[@thomasuranga3200]

Great video! Keep the rack attack going!

[@BadlandsGear]

We'll keep going...probably 😉

[@ericbraafladt7291]

Love the gear! Was able to harvest my first cougar this year and everything from the camo to the pack, bino harness all worked great! Also been wearing Badlands “Lifestyle” clothing weekly. The Durus pants especially for me are hard to beat for comfort, fit, and durability. For videos always helpful to see features and functions of packs and harnesses. Maintenance/cleaning, practical tip advice is helpful too.

[@BadlandsGear]

I'm still trying to harvest my first cougar. But I've only been trying at the mall....

[@sendithuntingoutdoors5185]

Truly is some of the best gear on the market and the warranty along with the customer service is unbeatable. Then you add on that we get to see Blake’s beautiful face on Rack Attack… well, that just sells the gear by itself! 😜 Keep up the amazing work guys!

[@BadlandsGear]

Hahaha! Beautiful and Blake's face have never been in the same sentence before so I appreciate that, ha!

[@kurtcrowningshield3086]

Good to see Rack Attack is back! First two pieces of camo I purchased were the Rise pants and vest, still use these in the Northeast early to mid archery. The Rise Pro has my curiosity. Ascend with a set of Master Gaiters has held me through rifle season. Keep the good stuff coming! I hope the next episode includes a demo involving a drill press or a water tank😂

[@BadlandsGear]

Hmmmm, we've used a water tank before but a drill press...what could we do with that? You've got my mind turning now!

[@kurtcrowningshield3086]

@BadlandsGear I'm thinking emergency Badlands patches for in field repairs., fabric emergency repair kit. Drill it, destroy it, repair it demo.

[@Loffleroutdoors]

Welcome back! It’s about time really, hard to believe Tom failed such an easy question.. get better Tom. Ran the new rise pro gear here in south Sask and that wind weave is night and day difference for warmth and comfort compared to the original rise set 🔥

[@ikesinthewildeich499]

The badlands gear has blended in perfectly here in the Northeast! Going undetected and blending in has been something I needed for years! Well done folks well done 🎄

[@BadlandsGear]

Thanks so much!

[@mx_manic4267]

You know this is my first rack attack…. But not my first year wearing badlands! I grew up in Montana spent my whole life trying to get a bull elk and low and behold first year I switched to badlands I got my first bull came within 30 yards never knew I was there so thank you guys for improving my hunting experience!

[@BadlandsGear]

That's incredible! Nothing quite like an up close elk encounter. People don't understand what that's like until it happens. Thanks for watching your first episode of Rack Attack. Many more to come!

[@DillonDeckard]

As I have told everyone who asks, the new Rise Pro GT is the best camo I have ever owned. Being able to hunt longer, stay warmer, and be quiet is huge for whitetail hunting. Rise Pro gear does all of that to the max. I was pumped to have the new gear on this year for my first big buck bow kill in Indiana. Bring on the 2025 hunting season! Also, great to hear that Badlands Rack Attack will fire up again for 2025.

[@KeagenMurdoch]

I love all my badlands gear! The stockings in the back are a need in my house next year.

[@BadlandsGear]

We'll work on that...maybe we'll give some away for a lucky household next year.

[@robashley]

I love Badlands gear and I just had a warranty issue that was resolved exceptionally quickly and well. Also, I'd love to see more of the Approach Black camo, especially on more of your everyday jackets.

[@daysofnoah9230]

Glad to see that Rack Attack is back. Badlands is the only way to go when it comes to packs. Looking forward to seeing some new packs in 2025!

[@BadlandsGear]

Some cool things coming in 2025. Look for a "new gear" special episode coming soon to get a peek at the new stuff.

[@alexblough4484]

Started out getting Badlands gear about 2 years ago and have been loving it ever since! Has been working out great for me from hunting whitetail in the north east to mule deer out west. Just started getting into archery hunting and have been grabbing whatever gear I can. Would love to see some of the pants get some ventilation zippers added for those hot walks in to the stand.

[@BadlandsGear]

It's like you peeked into the design room recently. We see side zips in our future for sure.

[@RyanJohnson-y6r]

I’m new to hunting new to all the gear and equipment used or deer hunting I got my first deer this year it was a doe and even tho it was a smaller doe I felt a proud feeling being able to put meat in my freezer and be able to provide my family with an animal that I harvested I found your products recently and are gonna be rocking all your stuff next year

[@BadlandsGear]

You should be very proud of that! Meat in the freezer is what it's all about!

[@marcusvitelli9246]

Rack attack is back! Love the content guys. I have the Calor series of gear and love it for early season hunts. But I have also used my badlands gear for something a bit unconventional. I am head to toe badlands gear when I ski. 😂

[@BadlandsGear]

That's awesome! We have several employees who ski in the gear as well. Why not, right? Badlands gear insulation and weatherproofedness (new word invented!) is better than most ski gear out there....

[@marcusvitelli9246]

@ if only we could combine skiing with hunting. 🤔😂

[@pikdiesel]

Happy to see Rack Attack back! Like Blake, I'm chasing my first elk. Love my Badlands gear and wouldn't wear anything else in the mountains. Hoping my Badlands bull helps me get a Colorado bull🤘🏻

[@BadlandsGear]

Right there with ya man...it's a grind! Maybe we need to team up and make it happen.

[@pikdiesel]

@@BadlandsGear 😯I'm down.....Let's make it happen!!

[@blakeskinner3003]

Just bought some gear for Christmas and excited to try it out on my archery deer hunt and to see how I like it. Will definitely be buying some more gear and wanted to try one of y’all’s bino harnesses!

[@BadlandsGear]

Awesome! Have a very Merry Christmas!

[@ThMtnWarriorB]

Great Gear ALWAYS TOP NOTCH!! I HAVE 3 SCREE PANTS. WEAR ALMOST EVERYDAY. AND OTHER GEAR OF COURSE. I HAVE MY SON USING BADLANDS GEAR AS WELL. KEEP UP GREAT WORK 👍

[@BadlandsGear]

YOUR CAPS LOCK IS STUCK!

[@steammaker48]

I just started buying badlands gear. I absolutely love your brush pants they're durable and not overly noisy. I would love to see you guys come out with some all black jackets and hoodies for the late season ground blind hunters.

[@BadlandsGear]

Thanks for trying it out! We LOVE the Brush Pant. We're working on some more solid color/black options for sure.

[@Droge16]

Loving my new Badlands GT camo! It hid me well this season. I love the rise pro line! I have the pants, flex zip hoodie, and jacket. I killed my biggest buck this year in Texas wearing it all! Thanks @badlandsgear for making the best apparel out there!

[@BadlandsGear]

That's awesome! Rise Pro has quickly risen to be a Badlands favorite. It sold out SOOOOO fast this year. Oops on our part.

[@matthayes5164]

Well I’m glade you brought rack attack back Blake! It was a nice what to show what happen in 2024 hunting season and the deer camp. Can’t wait to see what you bring to the show in 2025. I know you can’t beat badlands gear. That’s all I use, from day to day use and hunting. Question though where did you get the badlands yeti rambler?? Would to have one and a new set of them cool as hell binoculars would be cool too, love the new black approach gun case too. We’ll Blake have yourself a merry Christmas 🎁

[@BadlandsGear]

That cup was custom made....we need to mass product them, we know! We'll work on that for the new year.

[@matthayes5164]

@ I hope to see them on the website, if I do you can bet I’ll be buying one for sure

[@philliptrout243]

Love this gear

[@BadlandsGear]

And the gear loves you

[@wyattbomkamp1252]

Started using Badlands this year after switching from Ffirstlite and Sitka and won’t be looking back. I’ll be purchasing the Pyre and Venture jackets before long to add to my large collection!

[@redbeardracing9255]

Would love to see if maybe an episode strictly on gear for elk hunting or mule/whitetail hunting. What badlands gear you guys would suggest for a week long elk hunt? Backpack size, clothing gear etc. I’m new to the elk hunting game and I’m shooting to get an archery elk tag this year for September. There’s so much gear information out there it’s over whelming. You see guys talking about to big or to small of pack, which packs are good for hauling elk out etc. I want to thank you guys for having products and even better warranty! Keep up the great work!

[@BadlandsGear]

Great idea....an "Elk Special" sounds like something we could pull off. We'll start thinking about it!

[@Vicki-Z]

Our family loves Badlands gear. I MUST HAVE that Christmas stocking. Do you sell those??? Please let me know where I can get one!! Thank you! Love the show, love Badlands Gear!!!

[@quintonmenchinella750]

Love badlands so far got some pants and shirts and I’m in impressed with camo pattern approach OG my favorite. Looking to grow my inventory with some more badlands keep up the good quality.

[@BadlandsGear]

We love the OG camo! Shirt and pants...now you just need socks, underwear, jacket, hat, gaiters, belt, gloves, beanie....the list goes on and on 🤣

[@bcarter123]

An email I sent last spring after a successful Merriams hunt: Don't really have a question, just wanted to share a quick testimonial. This spring a friend and I went out to NW Nebraska to pursue public land Merriams turkeys. To make a very long story short, on the 5th day of the hunt, we went in early to set up on a bird we had roosted the night before. This was actually the 3rd day in a row we had hunted this exact bird. We thought we were in a good position, but when the turkey let off his first gobble of the morning I almost swallowed my mouth call. I somehow set up about 10 yards away from him, with nothing between he and I. I was pretty much directly under him. The only thing I could do was lay as motionless as possible. I figured I had ruined the hunt and wasted 3 days, and many miles. To my delight, the tom never saw me and he flew down, eventually offering my buddy a shot. I truly believe if I was in anything other than Approach OG I would have been busted. An added bonus was being able to stuff the bird in my vest to carry him the 3 miles back out to the truck. Just wanted to share my story and say thanks for making great gear. I've been buying badlands for many years, and don't think I'll ever stop.

[@justinsowell2550]

Awesome video, first rack attack I’ve watched but will for sure be watching more. Been looking for a new Bino harness and can’t decide between the X2 and Mag2. Like the extra pockets on the x2 but better closure on the mag2

[@BadlandsGear]

Thanks for watching! Those are both great cases. I personally run the X2 because I do really like the side pockets. But yes the water/dust tight closure on the Mag2 is pretty awesome. That was no help at all....sorry!

[@BaileyChristie03]

New to badlands gear recently ordered a pyre jacket and love the quality. Hoping to work myself into more gear in the future.

[@BadlandsGear]

Nice! The Pyre is definitely a Badlands favorite and very warm! ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

[@Badgers1013]

Wth man, you can't leave us go this long without rack attack. We need some badlands stockings and hydro dipped tumblers.... Please?? Merry Christmas to all the Badlands people. You truly make this brand better than the rest with the family feel. That's on top of great gear. When I say it's great stuff I mean it. I went and bought $1k in another major brand only to find out it was inferior to badlands gear. Sent it all back. Badlands is the people's company and I look forward to what's coming in 2025. Cheers!

[@BadlandsGear]

That means a lot to us! We want everyone who is wearing the gear to feel like they're part of the family because they are! Everyone should know they can pick up the phone anytime and chat with us about gear, hunts, etc. We promise to be more consistent with the Rack Attacks...lots of ideas!

[@VideoAddict]

Love the new GT camo, one of these days my channel will be big enough to get invited to hunt camp.

[@BadlandsGear]

Not about the size of the channel...just the size of the heart 😉

[@rileycollins6557]

Big fan of badlands gear, can we see some down products and a GOOD walk in hunter waterfowl pack?? Keep it up!

[@BadlandsGear]

Ahhhhh.....down.....we might have something in the works. Stay tuned!

[@blushingpinefiber]

First time watching y’all on KZbin and happy to follow along! I’m in love with your packs. I got my first one as a gift years ago and it’s still in great condition even using it weekly. I now have multiple Badlands Packs and it’s the only ones I recommend to friends and family. Amazing quality, so comfortable to wear, and makes me feel prepared for whatever comes at me out there. ⛰️ Looking forward to adding to my collection in 2025!🖤

[@BadlandsGear]

Thanks for watching! We'll have much more coming in 2025!

[@mikebouman]

Rack back is back 🎉

[@BadlandsGear]

Rack Back is Back....that's like a tongue twister.

[@lucasflachs2986]

Love the rise pro gear, wore the vest as an outer layer all season, super quiet and definitely cuts down on the wind chill factor here in the Northeast! Also love the GT pattern, was a game changer for me here during the whitetail rut! Would love to see some of the colder weather gear in the GT pattern as well! Y’all keep up the good work! Curious, what boots do you run when you’re in PA with the Bearded Buck guys?

[@BadlandsGear]

Hello! We're loving Rise Pro and the new GT pattern as well. And that colder weather gear in GT is in the works, good call! On that particular hunt I was wearing the Muck Apex Mid Zip Boot. They are by far my go-to boots when I don't need insulation. It wasn't very cold on that particular PA hunt. They are comfortable, waterproof, easy to get on and off...I love em.

[@lucasflachs2986]

I’ll check them out! I’ve been in the market for a good pair of rubber boots that are easy to get on and off! Had a pair of the Lacrosse Alphaburly Pros, comfortable and warm but an absolute nightmare to get on and off!

[@scottsorensen8490]

Your haircut looks great Blake! What is the best case for a phone (iPhone pro max) to connect to any bandland bino case or bandlands pack?

[@BadlandsGear]

There's that flattery I love so much. But actually that's two months after a haircut and wayyyyyy too long for my liking. Hmmm, best phone case? We'll have to put some thought to that.

[@kagecarlson248]

Been buying gear for the last 4 going on 5 years. Ever since I was 16. Truly love the material and camo pattern. Works perfectly from the western states to here in the Midwest. I’ve been able to convince my dad to start purchasing badlands gear which he now loves and even my girlfriend who is now new to hunting. But on a serious note when will the badlands stockings come out?

[@BadlandsGear]

Keep up that power of persuasion and spreading the good word! We do need to finally make those stockings. The ones we have were custom made by our AMAZING seamstress Okcha who does EVERY single Badlands repair. She's the best!

[@justins8768]

Let's gooo

[@BadlandsGear]

Let's goooooooooooooooooooo!

[@KoleAnderson-d4x]

Got a full fit this year killed my first bull elk in it loved it. In the far future could there be a waterfowl line in the works ? Love the badlands camo variety so far!

[@BadlandsGear]

I'd like to say Badlands Gear = Dead Bull but that hasn't been the case for me, haha! Glad it worked out for you though!

[@notfittohunt3152]

Wow! Our semiannual Rack Attack!

[@BadlandsGear]

Oh...low blow! Accurate but low blow. I'm somewhat guaranteeing more consistency with RACK Attack for 2025 😉

[@Nicholas-ml8ie]

The new approach GT looks awesome although I haven't tried it yet. Everything I own is in approach FX currently but may pick up a Rise Pro set soon in GT. The side zip cargo pockets are awesome for treestands. I wish the venture bibs had them as well. I hate loosing those pockets when it gets cold enough for bibs.

[@BadlandsGear]

GT, FX, OG....hard to go wrong!

[@tvandee]

I would love to see an expansion on the silens lineup for 2025 as a wisconsin bowhunter!

[@BadlandsGear]

We have a serious Silens project in the works....probably a 2026 launch however.

[@tvandee]

@BadlandsGear right on 🤙🏼

[@Cyrusx75]

Did you say praising you? lol 😂. Blake you look like Badlands Thor!

[@BadlandsGear]

Badlands Thor....that might be the best compliment ever.

[@Trigrhunting]

I had been looking for those knifes but have been very unsuccessful lol. Also might have a good hunt trip for ya to help ya get that first Elk. MONTANA hunting style.

[@BadlandsGear]

You have my attention....

[@cheifhughw9349]

Rack attack is back! Badlands gear and with such a handsome well-spoken guy who probably smells like pine trees and leather, what's not to love?

[@BadlandsGear]

You are in the lead for most flattering comment so far. Well done. And yes, I do smell like a new car all the time.

[@TheKumateKid]

Need a Texas pattern! Stx Ntx Etx Wtx

[@TheKumateKid]

Last week I bought 4 bino c cases in a panic! from various websites 😂 after emailing badlands confirming that they will be discontinuing the bino c. I’m looking forward to creating content with them in the future reviewing them once I open n close the piss out of them 😂 hopefully I’ll smoke a mule deer or elk in Colorado 2025 season. Blah blah blah I love free stuff 😂😂😂

[@BadlandsGear]

Who doesn't love free stuff right?
