▶ Color or pattern suitable for the purpose of use and the season
Good fit and high-quality materials
The fit of a hunting suit is one of the most important things to pay attention to when choosing. Although the terrain conditions are often variable when hunting, a well-fitting hunting suit makes it easy to move regardless of the terrain and also quickly adapts to the situations that arise.Regarding hunting as wellespecially the fit of the shoulder area is important so that shooting can be done without difficulty. A hunting jacket should not be too tight, but not too loose either - a jacket that is too tight does not give enough room for movement, but on the other hand, a jacket that is too loose can cause challenges. Alsohunting pantsyou should follow the same principles and the squat test is a great way to see if your pants squeeze when you squat. If the pants feel too tight, the recommendation is to either choose a bigger size or change the model completely.

The materials say a lot about the product's durability, for example, because products made from high-quality materials also naturally last longer. In hunting, the silence of the materials of the jacket and trousers is also key. A quiet hunting suit makes it easier to sneak closer to the prey, so it's best to leave the most rustling individuals out of the options. Brushed surface fabrics are mostly used in hunting suits - this makes the surface of the fabric softer and at the same time quieter. From Repo Extreme's selectionAlpha G2andStringthe hunting suits use a brushed surface material, while the Karelia suits use quiet, two-layer microfleece.Tokka hunting suitis again made of soft and rust-free cotton.
Choose the features of the hunting suit according to the use
Although many hunters can often find a suitable hunting suit for different occasions, in most cases compromises have to be made when choosing a suit. You should always remember that with the right kind of underwear for the conditions, you can have a lot of influence on the season of use of different suits. For example, a slightly thicker, membranous hunting suit is suitable for autumn weather with light underwear, and by always adding layers also well into the winter. Membrane hunting suits are often a fairly safe choice in Finland's changing conditions anyway, because the weather can change quickly from sunshine to heavy rain. The high-quality membrane keeps the hunter completely dry even in harsh conditions and protects from the wind, but also breathes efficiently. In a good hunting suit, sufficient breathability of the suit has also been taken into account by adding ventilation holes, for example, to the jacket under the armpits and in the pants, on the other hand, at the thighs. By opening the ventilation holes, you can influence the breathability of the suit, for example when the yacht is more mobile or the air is warmer than usual. For early season or mobile huntingcompletely filmless suithowever, may sometimes be a better choice.

Effective patterning of a hunting suit or striking coloring
The coloring and patterning of the hunting suit helps the hunter to blend in with the surrounding terrain so that he remains invisible to the prey for a long enough time. Today, various digicamo patterns are increasingly popular, but also the more classic, monochrome hunting suits are still the choice of many. Innovative camo patterns include, for example, Repo Extreme's own xFade digicamo pattern or M05, also known for use by the defense forces, which blend brilliantly into the Finnish forest landscape.
