Ice Armour gear

[deadsmelthead]

Checked out some of this pricey gear today at gander, pair of gloves $30, pants and jacket $300 any one own any ? Id like to hear how they hold up I put my gear through hell. I like to find gear that can take a beating. The gloves didn't look like much for 30 bucks and the jacket and pants well I really couldn't tell.

I own the ice armour suit, the gloves as well as a fleece jacket. The suit is great and worth every penny, same with the fleece jacket I wear it all the time. The gloves on the other hand and not worth the 30$ as they are not water proof as the claim goes...but they are warm and not bad gloves if they were cheaper then $30

I've owned a suit for a couple of years now and it has gotten some HEAVY use and has held up fine In addition to the ice, I use it when running charters in the spring as well as in the nasty weather on the salt here in the fall. It is still waterproof and has no holes tears or other signs of premature wear... I just sold mine to a friend and am expecting the new Extreme black and grey one to show up in a couple of days

Ice armor, they're not just for ice!

I looked at the bibs but I'm to cheap to spring for the $. I wear carhartt bibs for work and swear by them!! If it gets to cold (-30 plus wind) I'll throw some long jons and I stay warm all day. (and into the night.....and then into the next day )

I got mine for Christmas last year from the kids. I love it. We didn't have too many really cold days last year, but I'm sure it will keep me warm. I did fish in a drizzling rain a couple times last year and not one bit of moisture came through. Not even in the shoulder area where it would on my carhart.

How big is really big? I know for a fact they come in 2XL...

[icefshninnh]

5xl tall they said at 1 time they went to 6x but there wasnt a large demand so they stoped making them
