Sitka Gear Releases an Innovative System for the Coldest of Conditions
OutdoorHub 08.25.14
Sitka Gear, the industry leader in performance hunting gear, is pleased to introduce the lasted addition to their cold weather system, the Blizzard Series.
An integral piece to Sitka’s warmest big game system, the Blizzard locks you into a GORE-TEX® vault that’s insulated 650 fill power white duck down blended with Primaloft® ultra-fine denier fibers. When the Blizzard Parka is paired with the Blizzard Bib, it essentially becomes a walking sleeping bag that’s 100% waterproof – ideal for long periods of low activity on the tundra, like riding horseback and settling into glass.
With a design that fits close to your body, the Blizzard Jacket features articulated patterning and minimal bulk, giving you more freedom to move, while keeping clear of your bowstring. Unmatched warmth combined with a minimal bulk fit makes for the ultimate cold weather system in the field.
The Blizzard Beanie is also available within this system, making it the warmest hat in the Sitka big game line. Built for long sits in frigid, windy conditions the Blizzard Beanie is insulated with two layers of high-loft fleece and covered with a 100% windproof WINDSTOPPER® shell. When most hunters are heading back to camp, the Blizzard Beanie keeps you in the field longer, and keeps your synapses firing.
