Check forecast; use base, mid, and outer layers to adapt to temperature swings.
Durable fabrics for rough ground; camouflage patterns that blend with local flora.
Choose soft, quiet materials (fleece, wool). Avoid stiff nylon or leather that rustles.
Wash with scent-free detergent; avoid perfumes. Consider scent-blocking garments.
Pattern must match environment (woodland, desert, snow). Face mask/paint helps.
Insulated, waterproof boots with ankle support. Break in before the trip.
Hat for sun/rain/cold; camo gloves for warmth and concealment.
Blaze orange vest/hat during firearm seasons. Whistle, flashlight, first aid.
Test everything beforehand. Avoid tight or loose fits that hinder movement.
