Thread: Summer weight, breathable, cool, hunting clothes recommendations?

I've gone from wearing shorts and leggings to pant in the last couple of years. I really liked the hunters element Spur pants (basic green type not the camo stuff), and they were light enough and had side air vents on the thighs for summer hunting.

They are comfortable to wear, but unfortunately quality has been an ongoing issue with them. The first pair had the stitching disintegrate in multiple places and to their credit I was sent a replacement pair. That replacement pair has not been worn much at all, but the stitching is breaking up again. I contacted hunters element about the issue and eventually got a response that no warranty replacement would be provided as it was originally a replacement item. Going to have to bust out the sewing machine and the Form 1,2 and 3 sewing classes from my memory banks and fix them up to get a bit more wear out of them.

I have heard this about Hunter's Element gear, I've had a similar experience with Bushbuck too.

I think its a bit of a mixed bag. I have there top jacket and a halo jacket and can't fault them. Got a pair of light shorts, wore them once and never again.

Just got there bino holder as it's the only one smaller enough for 32mm, $80 and looks good but havnt tested yet.
