Upland Gear

[Jburl]

Does anyone know or have a good Canadian supplier of upland gear?
There are lots of great options in the states, but I'd rather shop in Canada.
Thanks!

Depends on what you are looking for .... for dog or human?

For humans...
I'm specifically looking for a waterproof coat that can take a beating.

Have you considered Carhart? Mine is around 20 years old, has survived thorns burrs, ice rain, bites from other hunters dogs ( yes I was wearing it when they bit). That coat is tough as nails, and so warm, I often hunt with it open.

However, they are not considered "waterproof " as the he is asking for.

I also use the double fronted pants along with my jacket, waterproofed them myself.

how did you do that Dean? I have never had an issue with being soaked through, either with my jacket or overalls.

I've been using pure clear silicone diluted with mineral spirits (50/50 roughly) I brush on a decent coat and let it air-dry Outdoors for a couple of days. Water beads off like nothing even stops the wind pretty good. It also doesn't really change the appearance of the fabric.

I started waterproofing because snow seems to stick and soak through the outer layer and make the jacket very heavy.

Browning makes really good quality upland clothing. I have the Bird N Lite vest and it's fantastic, well designed and tough. Any Browning dealer can order their stuff. I like Tillsonburg Gun Shop. TC
