Hi there,
I was looking today at Canadian Tire at some jackets. One caught my eye but it is completely polyester. I have used poly shirts before and they definitely retain body odor. Do poly jackets do the same? In fact, I have noticed that even after a wash the smell doesn't really come out (I guess I stink that bad!)
I have been using a cotton jacket I got a Marks Work Wearhouse (not a hunting jacket but it has vertical patterns on it). It is not waterproof at all and I was thinking it might be time to invest in something that is. Also, I not worried about sweating while hunting (I don't move quick enough), but I have definitely broken sweat hauling a buck out of the bush even when it was cold out.
Any advice would be most appreciated.
Cheers,
BB
