Cabelas MT050 parka and bibs

Good sale going next week on the Cabelas MT050 parka and bibs.

Just wondering if any members out there own these and how have they performed?

I am too far from Barrie to try them on so I am trying to decide what size to order on-line.
I'm 5,7" and weigh 165lbs average build with a 32" to 34' waist. Looks like the Medium is what I should order but sometimes med are like a small and large is like an XL. lol

Any real world info you can provide would be appreciated. I would hate to have to send them back for an exchange! :(

I got this outfit last year and wore for the 2019 hunt. Am very impressed with it. The design, material, zippers and especially the inside material.
We are near the same size. I am 5'7", 175-180 lbs and 34-35" waist.
I have the Large coat and bibs.

Bibs are just right for the fit but long in the legs. I was going to use velcro straps this year, was going to lift the bottoms above my ankles and then run the strap around so they don't slide under my heal. For me, it would be nice if bib legs were about 3 inches shorter.

The coat is good fit, slightly loose so I can still layer if needed. My regular size is Large, medium in some work clothes.
If I am standing normal, a medium would be a better fit in the Cabelas MT050. However when I lift arms up to shoulder gun medium suits would tighten up in arms and across back and front zipper would pull into my throat. With Large I can lift arms to shoulder gun and still feels great, suit doesn't restrict me.

Sounds like a medium would be a perfect fit for you.
I am right on the border if a medium or large is better.
Comfort in the shooting position gave me the very slight push to a large.

For you, go with Medium, you will appreciate the purchase when you use it.

Great info much appreciated!!

Thinking of doing same, are these good for cold weather? wind? raing and snaow?

Thanks

I ended up ordering a large and it was huge on me.
Bibs were loose and about 3 inches too long with no adjustable snap closure around the ankles. :(
Parka was way too big as well.

All sent back to Cabelas for a refund.

I will keep using my Cabelas instinct waterfowl gear for deer/coyote hunting... lol



Back it went!

That’s too bad. Sucks to buy clothing without trying it on first. I just ordered a pair of winter Baffin boots from Cabelas. After reading the reviews, everyone said to order one size bigger. Fingers crossed. Lol

I just ordered a pair from Cabela's too. I have a pair of Baffins now and they say size 12 and yes there area 12. Baffin is a Canadian Company so a 12 is a 12...it's the Chinese crap you have to add a size to.

Having said that fingers crossed too :)

Not sure about that. I have a pair of Baffin Titans and every pair of boots i own are size 9.5 or 10 except the Baffins i needed a size 11. This was last year about this time of year - lucky i was in the store and able to try on multiple sizes.

Yes. I been buying Baffin for a long time, great Canadian company for sure. I tried the last pair I bought and went one size bigger also. I think they were called Oarprene? Hopefully the new one I ordered aren’t too big.

I also have both bibs and jacket and it was exactly was I needed for cold weather, very warm, comfortable and weather proof

I went to try on the bibs and found that Large was tight, no way I was going with XL as it would be 10" too long in the leg

update:

received the boots yesterday. As hoped, the Baffin Boots are a 12 (like the old ones). The new insulated lining makes them a little snug but I figure a few days of walking in them should pack them down a bit.

great Boot company, not only Canadian but right here in Ontario too ! !!

Good for you.
I received my boots also, wife and daughter gift, So I can’t open till Christmas. :(
I checked my work boots (CSA) and size 11 like I always get fits perfectly.
Hopefully the size 12 on the new boots will fit. I know my oarprene have the big liner and I had to go with size 12.

Forgot about this, size 12 are snug. So happy to have gone one size bigger.
I have 4 pairs of Baffin boots, the two with the bigger -100 Celsius liners are size 12 which are one size bigger. The two pairs with regular liner are my regular size 11.

Any idea on how "quiet" this gear is as far as archery hunting for deer??? I'm seeing mixed reviews.
