Hunting Jacket

Hunting Jacket

The most revolutionary design of the hunting down jacket lies in its stealth technology. Utilizing high-density nylon with a micro-brushed surface treatment, the sound of fabric friction was kept below 25 decibels as I moved through the birch forest—a level even lower than the natural ambient wind noise. Last winter, while tracking wild boar, I lay concealed in thick brush for four hours. Despite adjusting my position multiple times, the sound of my gear never startled the herd just fifty meters away.

The Role of Heated Hunting Clothes and Jackets

Once you have your layers, it's time to supercharge them with heated hunting clothes. This is a game-changer for hunters who spend hours alternating between periods of movement and stillness. A smart strategy is to start your hike to the stand "comfortably cold". This means dressing lightly to avoid sweating, then putting on your outer layers and activating your heat once you've settled in. My rule is to never turn on heated clothing when moving under your own power.

ApexGear offers heated hunting jackets and vests specifically designed for this purpose. The 7V Insulated Heated Jacket and 7V Insulated Heated Vest feature the Mossy Oak Country pattern, providing exceptional concealment. Constructed with a quiet, flexible four-way stretch polyester shell, they allow for stealthy movement through the woods. These garments incorporate a patented heating system that warms four core areas (two in the chest, two in the back) to maintain core warmth. The additional heat enables you to extend your time in the stand, ultimately increasing your success rate.

This concealment system incorporates three layers of intelligence:

  • The outer shell features matte camouflage printing that effectively breaks up the human silhouette.

  • The lining uses dark, anti-microbial fabric to prevent light reflection when the jacket is opened.

  • All zippers are equipped with magnetic silencing systems, eliminating metallic clinks.

When the last snowflake melts on your rifle barrel, you understand that true hunting artistry begins with this perfect harmony between gear and nature.
