First Lite clothing question

[Wapiti_Hunter]

Hey everyone, quick question. I'm looking to buy some first lite base layers but am wondering if i should buy the midweight or liteweight. I hunt archery, and typically 1st and 2nd season rifle here in Colorado. I am not a still hunter and can cover a lot of ground if needed. any thoughts are appreciated.

I recently got both and I can see days where I will use each of them.
By second season you would be in the mid weight for sure.
Sept Archery you would be in the lightweight one.

I know that doesn't help much but I would consider some of both.

I would go with the lite weight ones as you can always layer up or add a vest but that's just me. I run warm most of the time any way! I would rather be a little cold than too warm. Good luck, it's great gear!!!

Go with the light weight and add a vest if need be

I got the shirt and then the lano 1/4 zip for over top the tshirt and really like it.

I always prefer a lightweight ... then I add another layer when necessary.

I'd go with the 1/4 zip long sleeve, which I wear. And layer up. Check out Litton Outdoors.

I have some of both. It's all great. Like everyone else has said, go with the light stuff and layer up, if needed. You won't be disappointed.

Best price I can find is through http://www.promotive.com if you can apply. Next is http://storycreekinc.com. He usually has the lowest advertised price, and a coupon code for 15% off that. Fast shipping too. No affiliation to either other than be a very satisfied customer of both. Hope this helps someone get a great deal.

Just got some of the lighter weight. Look forward to trying it out this season.

I just made a point of wearing the Chama QZ mid weight for some yard work @ around 60 degrees.
Still pretty comfortable.
From what I can tell the light weight is very light weight.

This stuff sure is comfortable either weight.

Thank you all for the responses, I am going with the lightweight top and midweight bottoms. I think I am going to build most of my gear with first lite. I like the ASAT camo and have never heard any bad things about their merino wool.
