The Nitty Gritty: Whitetail Catalyst System Breakdown

[@adamfronius0038]

One major benefit of the DWR is walking through tall grasses in the morning dew. Theres been times were the extended forecast doesn't have any rain but its easy to forget about moisture from rain the night before or fog. Morning precipitation can ruin a hunt very quickly if you aren't ready for it.

Really liking this new specter camo. Any chance a catalyst specter pant is in the works?

[@ST91917]

Please! Catalyst is early season. Why bibs only? Pants option please

[@kirkcabanilla4833]

Do you have any plans to incorporate a set of these to address saddle hunting needs?

[@leelatt]

Looks like a non-insulated version of the Solitude set, which is awesome btw, kept me warm in 10°F this past season.

[@finnallen5981]

What layers did you have under?

[@leelatt]

@@finnallen5981 Base = 250g SmartWool top and bottom. Mid = First Lite Catalyst top and bottom (the regular set, not this new one). Outer = First Lite Solitude bib and jacket. Others = SmartWool heavy socks, Irish Setter Vaprtek 1200g boots, and a fleece beanie.

Did you guys fix the pocket problem from the catalyst jacket???? I love my catalyst jacket. However the pockets are a large flaw for hunting late season.

[@zacharymcnew9608]

What problem was it?

[@MNsportsman]

Please offer the catalyst pants in specter!

[@josf32]

Anyone in the Midwest, specifically Ohio, tried this set in mid November? How did it work? Stand alone or layer?

[@jimmywallhanger8402]

take my money. does this have the same water resistance as the material used for the old North Branch Bibs?

[@caseyschmidt7972]

Will you guys make tall sizes in the bibs?

[@FirstLiteHuntingApparel]

Not in 2021

[@adamhancock8637]

Got any dad bod mannequins you can show this on? Or true whitetail rifle hunters that could model it for us?

[@FirstLiteHuntingApparel]

Check out Hunt Urban on KZbin. Taylor was a key product tester for the system and would proudly tell you he has a dad bod. He also has a breakdown of his experience with the kit last season on his Instagram channel.

[@adamhancock8637]

@@FirstLiteHuntingApparel thanks for the advice. Definitely will check it out. I'm built like a 4ft troll bridge so it's nice to find someone who has reviews who's not 6ft and slim built. You guys rock. Loving the corrugate guide shorts by the way.

[@brockmannwells]

It’d be nice to get pants in Specter, I can’t stand bibs

[@lucascarpenter2310]

Why no pit zips?!

[@MFetts3]

The KitLink zippers achieve the same thing though?

[@FirstLiteHuntingApparel]

The KitLink can also function to dump heat.

[@jagmeetsmann]

Useless in cold weather. It is below freezing in Pennsylvania during rifle season.

[@MFetts3]

Cool you hunt in cold weather, and......? Did you even watch the video; it's marketed as an early to mid season piece and rated for 45-60F so it's not designed for extreme cold weather. Sounds like you need some hearing aids and/or need to watch a seminar on proper layering.
