rngunner Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) Hi Looking to buy new suit and not sure which make is best, Jahtijkt, Deerhunter,Ridgeline. It will be used mainly for standing around a lot and dog walking, not hunting with dog. I feel the cold a lot and this would need to be able to keep me warm, also to use most of the year and keep the water out. Thanks, poll ?

Jody Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 under armour is the best one I've ever had but you need to go to the states to get it or order it online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve_b_wales Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I have both the Deerhunter jacket/trousers in realtree pattern, and also the Jahti Jakt full kit that was available on special offer some years ago when the company was starting in the UK market. Both are excellent quality and either will be a good choice. Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 you left off Harkila (which are the mutts nuts), i have a Deerhunter Ram suit which is excellent though (just not as nice as my Harkila Pro Hunters) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mick miller Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 I always seem to do alright with Seeland. Long lasting and nay a bad price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UGM Posted February 26, 2013 Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 None of them seen to make in 4xl :( Deerhunter do. Look at Montana model. They actually go up to 52in jackets and 50in trousers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rngunner Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Looks like Deerhunter is winning so far, I was hoping Jahti Jkt would be close, still disappointed in the Ridgeline %, the Torrent does have underarm vent zips as well although the Torrent trousers are short on pockets, guess this lets them down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sishyplops Posted February 28, 2013 Report Share Posted February 28, 2013 as there is no option for Chrysalis i refuse to take part in this survey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rngunner Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Is Deerhunter doing well on the poll as its easily the most well known ? Ridgeline is next most well known Jahti Jkt is from Finland and only one supplier in the uk,arcticoutdoorclothing.maybe this is why the results are so far apart on all three. I didn`t poll other makes as the price for these 3 are about equal and value for money was what I was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
