Sitka's Waterfowl Hunting System - Early to Late Season Camo Gear

What size of gradient pants is that? And also what size of Dakota hoodie would you wear? I'm just now getting into sitka and am a bigger guy. Thank you

[@toddhelms5241]

I wear the XL in both. I'm 5'11" and 245 and wear size 36 jeans. I order XL's in almost all pants that aren't waist size specific and XXL in most jackets. The Dakota Hoody is roomy enough for layers in the XL for me.

@@toddhelms5241 thank you very much!!

Did anyone else come to this video looking for info on one item, and then got blasted by at least 2 G’s worth of overpriced clothing?

[@danpickar5442]

Do you know if Sitka makes husky sizes?

[@badwateroutdooradventures3368]

The Todd-Father!!! Man, Myth, absolutely Legendary!!!!

[@merleshuff8640]

Man thanks for sharing the content , very helpful information when you don’t know anything about Sitka gear. I would have liked if you could or would specify what sizes are the top ,bottom,jackets,bibs ,pants. I’m sure everyone doesn’t have a place to go try on sika ,that’s why I’m mentioning that , but hey great video we thank you for your time and sharing the information with us all.

Is there a reason to buy Sitka whitetail and waterfowl systems separately? Lotta beans for Sitka.

[@wingmen_eastmans]

If you're gun hunting for deer then the waterfowl line will pull double duty very well! The whitetail line is much quieter than the waterfowl and is the better if noise is a concern. If noise is not an issue and durability and keeping burrs at bay are then go with the waterfowl line. That said, it's nice to have both!

@@wingmen_eastmans great to know, thank you!

Have you ever used the duck oven? Thoughts on it if you have.

[@austinevans3718]

Great if it is cold but it is not waterproof.

[@prairiepaparazzi]

🤚🏼nice b-roll too boys

[@bull8309]

I dunno about ya'll, but I sleep in my Sitka Gear

[@wingmen_eastmans]

Almost

[@joelewandowski245]

Looking for a pant with room to layer under when goose hunting WI in December but also a pant that can stand up to the brush as an outer when I'm pushing bush for pheasants. (Grinder Pant?) Great video as always. Thank you.

[@toddhelms5241]

I'd say either the Grinder (my favorite) or the Dakota (warmer). Like I said in the video, I wouldn't count out the Work Pant either. I personally wear my Grinder's for everything upland and wish I'd had them during my formative upland years back in Michigan. Another option would be the Pantanal Pant/Bib - tough and waterproof with room to layer under.

[@wingmen_eastmans]

Dakota 100% for that time of year.

[@brianrobson3183]

Wyoming what part are u from? I'm on the Montana boarder

[@wingmen_eastmans]

We are in the northwest corner.

[@josephmonceaux1677]

Nice stuff but over priced

[@duckhunter2785]

How does the heavyweight hoody hold up to rain?

[@toddhelms5241]

It is intended as an insulating layer and needs to be kept covered in inclement weather.

[@duckhunter2785]

Todd Helms thank you! Was curious how the hood would perform on a wet day. I appreciate it

[@toddhelms5241]

My pleasure thanks for commenting

[@jakerrush]

Is the gradient pant warm enough under Sitka waders even though they’re unindulated

[@toddhelms5241]

Yessir! The Gradient pant is perfect under the Delta Waders. In fact it was a rare day when it was cold enough to need anything but the Gradient under the waders. However, if you feel like you need more, the heavyweight core pants work very well but it's got to be extremely cold to need that combo, think single digits or below zero. Of course figuring out what works best for you is the best way to go as I run hot and don't need much for clothing most days.
