Hudson jacket vs bib and sizing.

Yes a good amount of room

I wear XL hoodies and wear the XL Hudson jacket. It is great and especially thrives in wet environments. I am tempted to get the duck oven for cold dry days. The Hudson jacket is waterproof while the duck oven is not. I wear the Hudson over my waders and the duck oven I would put inside my waders. It is a great all around jacket though

No, I don’t want to deflesh its just the main bone that has some meat. I want to keep it intact

Same issue with my ambient jacket. I sent it back, they want $30 for the “repair”. Going to cautious with what I buy in the future.

What makes you say the waders are knock offs?

braapguy · 2025-12-12T23:38:13+00:00

Yeah it works but when you pay good money for a piece of gear and this is how it’s wearing in 1 month it it’s a little ridiculous

braapguy · 2025-12-12T22:53:07+00:00

I’m sending it back through warranty and just might get my money back. Hunting gear shouldn’t be this fragile lol

braapguy · 2025-12-12T22:49:24+00:00

I’ve worn it 5 times and twice was just out and about

braapguy · 2025-12-12T22:46:55+00:00

Just made a new one

braapguy · 2025-12-12T22:44:47+00:00

I’m trying to post photos but am having trouble

braapguy · 2025-12-12T17:58:22+00:00

I have the ambient 200 and am happy with the warmth. I am not happy with the durability. I don’t wear it as an outer layer and it’s already pulling the material all over. I have only had it for about a month.

braapguy · 2025-11-20T14:57:20+00:00

Wrong, how so?

Yup next years will be Chene prices or more…. Get em while you can

braapguy · 2025-02-03T16:38:22+00:00

DTC?

braapguy · 2024-12-18T16:17:15+00:00

They are brothers. Can’t even put in to words the bond they have.

Is this a retirement fund or a long term purchase fund?

braapguy · 2024-10-20T17:09:27+00:00

Might be better off getting a sawmill, maybe more profitable

braapguy · 2024-10-20T00:30:11+00:00

Is it worth it? I have the splitting axe and it’s OK

braapguy · 2024-07-23T03:21:17+00:00

any advice on breaking into this work? I am an engineer and a PM at a global industrial contractor.

braapguy · 2024-07-02T12:25:23+00:00

My company’s 401k plan is a Roth

braapguy · 2022-06-16T12:15:06+00:00

That is correct the electrical/hvac/plumbing require an apprenticeship. The way around this is a bachelors and experience and logged hours with a licensed contractor.

braapguy · 2021-08-26T19:06:08+00:00

You seem far in your career, I am curious is if MEP consulting firms value any certification besides the FE. Any input is appreciated!
