SITKA Stratus Bibs Review

[@walter992]

Another great review. Just ordered a set of Stratus bibs and jacket to replace my Fanatic Light series.

@fieldseriesreview Hello and great videos, you're a big part of why I'm switching to Sitka. Question: do you have any intel into what they're coming out with for their 2024 whitetail line? Thanks!

I am 5”11 190lbs athletic build - L or XL in the bibs ??

[@outdoorfamilytraditions9352]

Great content ! 👍🏻 just subbed. I have the celcius midi jacket, fanatic hoody and fanatic jacket.. now I’m between the stratus pants or bibs vs the fanatic bibs. What’s your opinion? Thanks

[@fieldseriesreview]

If it’s cold enough to need the Fanatic Jacket, is day go with the Fanatic Bibs.

[@patboatwright8085]

Do you think having the non fleece on the leg for burs makes a big difference in the stratus vs fanatic bib

[@fieldseriesreview]

Fanatics will definitely pick up more spurs than the stratus set .

[@livingadreamlife1428]

Fanatic bib was modified and doesn’t have the berber fleece in the legs anymore. So, warmth in the right areas, without picking up burrs.

[@Batuhan1988]

Do you recommend to get 1 size bigger?If I have layers underneath, I feel like my regular size would be a tight fit.

[@j.dalemorgan2975]

Great review! Can you also do a comparison review looking at the Stratus vs. Celcius vs. Fanatic Lite gear? Specifically bibs and jackets in each line. Thanks!

[@johnhenry4019]

Good review! Should I buy a size larger in the Stratus Bibs if I want to use a layer system underneath? Same question for Stratus jacket?

[@twistnshout3031]

Great review. Thanks. Just ordered these last night and a ton of other things. This makes me feel confident I ordered the right stuff.

Still rockin’ my Gen 1 Optifade Forest Stratus bibs... Yeah, they are REALLY green, but they are much warmer than the newer models thanks to the higher loft fleece. I tried the newer model, but Gen 1 bibs were almost halfway between the current stratus and fanatic. I think they are 5-6 years old, and still in great shape! Regardless of which year or model you buy, the stratus set is absolutely awesome! I do miss the full length zips on mine though!

My first 2 pieces of gear were stratus jacket and the midi pants. Can't wait to get the bins. Very impressed with it in NE ohio shotgun week. Got to 17 degrees and I was good to go with how I layered underneath the shell. All your videos have helped me thank a million

[@SSLBoarding]

Have loved your reviews! So far you’ve given me the confidence to get the fanatic hoodie, midi jacket (day before they discontinued!!), equinox guard pants, Bino harness, and a beanie. Hoping to have some stratus bibs and a lightweight core shirt/LS as well before season! Keep it up! Can’t express enough how comfortable and quality this gear is!

[@andrewcox1462]

I live in Michigan and plan on running my equinox midi pants under these bibs for late season.. I just bought the fanatic hoodie and Celsius midi jacket. Do you think the stratus jacket will be enough for late season with that setup or do you think I should go with the fanatic jacket? It does occasionally get into high teens at the end of the season but im thinking the stratus jacket with the right layers underneath would be enough? Thoughts? I tend to run hot and have pretty good cold tolerance. Don’t want to spend more if I don’t have to

[@Xng88]

Can this bib be use in November n late season? Or should i stick to the fanatic bibs?

[@fieldseriesreview]

Depends on your temp. With proper layering , I wear it into the high 20’s

[@BoonersandlunkersTV]

Love the reviews man. I’ve bought my entire whitetail system for this year based off your videos. Thank you!

[@John_Turner2]

All your reviews are great. Thank you for sharing your investments and knowledge. Your attention to detail is top notch.

[@sebastianstewart6218]

I’m 6’ 180 athletic build what size should I get?

[@jasondupuie8826]

I live in michigan and looking for a good bow Hunting outfit and it ranges from 50s down to low 30s do u think these will be good?

[@fieldseriesreview]

What my mid season Whitetail set up and add the equinox midi pants to that system. You’ll be golden.

[@troygaines4119]

I wear these mid 30s with 2 base layers one merino and one polyester base on bottom no problem. On top, merino wool, fanatic hoody and stratus.

[@marclafleur3593]

Awesome review. I just ordered my stratus bibs today; thanks for the help!

[@melvinsacromentoe]

I feel like Sitka makes some of the best hunting outerlayers but can’t afford them right now. College kid

[@fieldseriesreview]

I totally under stand , it’s not cheap. Check camofire.com everyday for good deals.

[@melvinsacromentoe]

Field Series Review 👍🏼

[@mightymountainoutdoors9603]

Also some Facebook groups that have people selling used gear. I got a pair of these off someone selling these bibs. The group is for anyone selling any camo, I think the title is like sixsite, Kuiu, firstlite, Sitka. I’m a college kid too and this came in handy.

[@jersey2484]

Would you buy the stratus or fanatic bib if you could only have one. I live in Iowa where it’s 50s in October and 30-45 in November. I’m having a hard time deciding.

[@Xng88]

If I can have one I would.choose the fanatic bib. If u plan to hunt all the way til November then I recommend u get the fanatic bib. Stratus you will have to layer in and out to stay warm.

[@matthigdon4809]

CANT WAIT FOR THE UPDATED REVIEWS AFTER SEASON

[@randydunmire]

I am a firm believer of the Stratus system.

[@chasekluth6092]
