484 | The Clothing Layers You Need for Backpack Hunting — The Experience Project

The Hunt Backcountry Podcast

The hunting market is full of clothing brands — each one offering many types and styles of clothing layers, and often different camouflage patterns. And that is just the hunting market. If you're open to using solid colors for hunting, you can begin to shop for technical apparel from brands outside of the hunting space and have never-ending options on what to buy and wear. It can be hard to understand how to evaluate the clothing you need or know where to invest your money. We want to help cut through that confusion. In this podcast, Steve & Mark discuss their approach to clothing layers for backpack hunts, and how different seasons and conditions affect their layering strategies and gear choices.
