Couldn’t be more satisfied with this jacket and bibs for late season muzzleloader in Ohio . Kept me warm and in the stand all day

Zipper is junk, camo is to light, looks like nothing what's in picture when you get.

This jacket is warm! I hunt in northern Ohio, and decided to buy this jacket to hunt a mean cold front we had with many real feel temps in the single digits. I wore a tshirt, a cotton hooded sweatshirt, a light cotton vest, and this jacket and never had an issue. Well worth the money, and it is very free moving for shooting a bow.

I got the tetra gilla pattern, it looks way darker on the website. When I got it, it was very bright with cream whitish color n the browns n green were way light n not dark at all. Camo does not work good in my area. The zipper is very hard to start and get off. Coat was quiet n comfortable. But camo design was very bad! Horrible print. I returned it.

I like the parka but I do think that the zippers are under designed they need heavier duty zippers that don’t struggle to line up in the cold

This coat and the bibs are super warm. The front zipper is undersized and failed on my first one I owned so I purchased a second one a size bigger. It’s quiet until it gets below 20 degrees then it seems to make more noise than I’d like with movement. However I think a size larger may remedy some of that as well.

I’ve been using the BE1 Fortress suit for four years, it’s is hands down the best cold weather suit I’ve ever owned. Bought one for my wife as well. Have worn it down to -35C sitting for Whitetails in Saskatchewan and stay very comfortable

Very warm and I've found it very easy to fully draw my bow even though it's a heavier coat. I can also verify that it is 100% windproof which was a huge deal for me. The pockets are huge and I have no lack of space for storage.

Well thought out jacket. Waterproof, absolutely! Sat it 33 degree weather with double digit wind and a heavy wet snow for 5 hours. It snowed every minute of the morning sit and every layer was as dry as when they were put on. Literally was able to wring the water out of the sleeves. Was warm the entire sit. There may be a quieter jacket but really cannot imagine one out there. Especially given the added element of being waterproof. For cold inclement weather this jacket is perfect. I found the sizing to be spot on. Always wear a large and have room to layer and not feel bulked up. For all this jacket offers it is a value!

Nice jacket kept me warm in 25 degree weather only drawback is the zipper
