Sitka doesn't just make camo gear--they've pioneered a system for staying dry, warm and hidden when ducks do duck things in ducky weather. John Smolke traces the trail from his hunting roots to the leading edge of waterfowl innovation at Sitka Gear, unpacking optifade camo origins, why-and how skin-to-surface systems work, then plunges chest deep into the new Delta VentLite GTX Zip waders--how they're built differently than any other wader that's ever before existed and why this new technology changes the game. Whether tired of repairing leaky waders, shopping for the ultimate last-minute gift, or just wondering what all the buzz is about, you'll appreciate this informative discussion.
