    A First Lite addiction and it's getting out of control ...... Might need a twelve step program. It started out so innocent. I SWEAR. Lol I love the stuff so much that after buying every last piece of hunting clothes I could possibly ever need (two pairs alike of some) I started buying solid colors for daily wear.....

    My fraud protection at the bank has had to call twice to make sure my acct hasn't been hacked.....

    Is there any hope?

    Outdoor clothing. The it's a layering system I love the merino wool items. Warm comfortable and just feels nice. The outer layers are just amazing IMO. I've worn a lot of different brands. Cabelas, Scentloc, UA, Scentblocker, even own a couple Kuiu and Sitka pieces. I just really like the First Lite.

    They are just crazy comfy and the fit of their products, at least for me, can't be matched.

    I'm right there with you! Have their base layers now and plan on loading up with this upcoming sale. Can't wait to try out the corrugate pants.

    It's easy to buy from them when the FL crew is known for being a great group of guys.

    What's your feelings on the sanctuary pieces? Have sitka fanatic set so doubt I'll switch but just wondering.

    Well I only have the Sanctuary top and haven't worn it much. YET. Just hasn't been cold enough. So far with the Allegheny base layers on bottom the North Branch pants and Allegheny base plus either a Halstead or Chama then the North Branch top I haven't been cold on stand. I do keep my puffy in my pack and might pull it on for an hour right at sunrise but so far that has kept me comfy down to mid 30's. Looking forward to wearing the Sanctuary more in late Dec and Jan. early season was pretty much Kanabs and Chama. Been on the fence about the corrugate. I so love the chamas ( have three pair) I think they'll be hard to beat. Prob get a pair though.

    I haven't added any new base layers to speak of for years.
    Do they have their own website?

    I've helped some of my buddies through this in the past. The best thing you can do is quit cold turkey. You MUST get rid of everything that leads to your addiction!!! Send me everything you have, it's the only way!! Lol
