I ordered the new Striker Ice Hardwater jacket and bibs direct from Striker. When I receive them I'll post my first impressions and how the sizing went.

I've sent an e-mail today to Shawn ([email protected]) and received "Mail delivery failed". Does somebody know if something wrong with his e-mail address?

WalleyeTom · « **Reply #35 on:** Sep 29, 2012, 10:47 AM »

That is the address I have used. Perhaps their server was down. I would try again.

It's advertising dollars that influence Mr. Stange's decision.

Thanks a lot. I'll try again later

Unfotunately there is alot of truth in that statement. Not saying that the products they promote are not quality, but it would be interesting if money was not involved to see if the same products would be promoted. I mean this for all outdoor shows, both hunting, and fishing.

Sorry to offend you guys!!! wasn't really looking to start any negativity.

WalleyeTom · « **Reply #42 on:** Sep 30, 2012, 01:32 PM »

Fish Hounds,

I started this topic .... no offense taken here. I made my decision and ordered Striker Ice Hardwater. I will report back on what I think of the product.
I am not a product basher. I will give my honest opinion.

Arctic Armor and Striker are the only two that make "Floating" suits, correct?

bigcarp · « **Reply #44 on:** Oct 01, 2012, 03:15 PM »

I've sent e-mail to Shawn again and still have received "Mail delivery failed". I would like to get their products on http://www.hikerway.com/. I'll try one more time later

WalleyeTom · « **Reply #45 on:** Oct 01, 2012, 06:42 PM »

BigCarp,

Glad to help

I figured I would post this on here I was wondering who has tried the striker ice lite. I live in Western WI so it gets moderately cold. I say I probably go fishing tell about 0 degrees. I was hoping to get opinions on the suit. Thanks

kevt528 · « **Reply #50 on:** Oct 18, 2012, 09:40 PM »

I have the Striker lite Floating suit, the coldest i wore it out fishing last season was the low teens with a blowing wind. I didnt have my shack out that day and i was never cold, i mostly had my jacket un zipped the whole day I never got cold. I would recommend it to any one.

DR.SPECKLER · « **Reply #51 on:** Oct 19, 2012, 08:17 AM »

ive never been cold in my striker ice lite suit either.but the stitching of the suit came apart after 5 outings.ill have to see how it does this season before i would recommend it.mine is last years model and i see that striker refabbed the crotch area on this years suits.

Michaelo · « **Reply #52 on:** Oct 19, 2012, 11:46 AM »

Okay thanks it seems like a pretty good suit just wanted a few opinions on it.

Not correct.
Here in Canada two popular brands (both Department of Transportation Canada approved floatation devices) are Mustang & Helly Hansen.
I have a Helly Hansen Delta II which is quite warm.

WalleyeTom · « **Reply #54 on:** Oct 22, 2012, 08:59 AM »

Woodsman,

Great suit, warm and safe. I use the Mustang coat for spring and fall fishing.

WalleyeTom · « **Reply #55 on:** Oct 25, 2012, 03:19 PM »

Big day today, my Striker Ice Hardwater suit arrived. The fit is good. I shortened the legs for my 30" inseam as shown in their video.
Now I have to wait to put the suit to its intended use.

jeffmonument · « **Reply #56 on:** Oct 25, 2012, 03:45 PM »

I love my Striker Lite!! I ski in it also, no thermals needed.

Winters2short · « **Reply #59 on:** Nov 03, 2012, 07:13 PM »

Love my Frabill bibs. Layer as needed for a jacket, but I got a smokin deal on a north face mcmurdo snorkel coat. Which is to warm most of the time.
