Anyone use it. How'd it compare to smartwool and ullforte?

Magnus,
I just bought some for my wife for Christmas. It seems to be lighter then my Ullforte. It feels and has a similer thickness to my First Lite.

Buddy you've got me scratching as it's something I've never even heard of.(like that's something new!)...lol
God bless,Mudd
Mudd. Google it there's a sight for it but don't know a difference. They have a 200 and a 400 as well at about half the price as the other stuff.
Keeping the Faith!

You'll love it. I have M-33 and Ulfrotte. The M-33 is thinner and tighter than the terry cloth loop of UF. I can't tell a difference in the field.
I have the 400 half zip tops and full bottoms. I've never had smart wool or Ulfrotte but I have had both Filson and Ice Breaker merino wool. I wouldn't buy the Filson again as it didn't last long. The Ice Breaker is good stuff but expensive. The Minus33 I have is about half the cost of the Ulfrotte and very effective and comfortable. I recommend it.
I have top and bottom. I love it. It was recomended by friends that crab/halibut/cod fish with long lines and pots all year round. They think it is the best thing going. I am wearing some as I write this after sitting outside today hunting. I did not get cold. :thumbsup:
Saltwater do you have the 400 or the 200 or both?

I was the hunting clothing buyer at an outdoor store, we carried Smartwool when we first opened, I got to sample a lot of their product, great stuff but pricy, I brought in Minus 33 in our second season and got to try a lot of their product! the socks are great and their baselayer Merino products were on par with Smartwool for half the price! There is also a company called Terramar that great baselayer products at a decent price!
Just bought some Minus 33 on fleabay on sale. Good prices on the midweights. I think there's more available if anyone is interested, the seller is theoutfittersoutlet.
I'll give a review after I receive it.
Nice stuff.
I think the tops are sized a little larger than Smartwool.
Great stuff! Good prices at workinggear.com also.
I just ordered the 400 weight tops and bottoms from Hanks Clothing (never heard of them til I saw them online). $49 for each...listed at $80 each on Minus 33's website.
This year I hunted with Minus 33 400 Wt. I have the zipper top and the full bottom .I will not hunting in anything else .I have been out in 26 below zero weather ,With bids ,And a wool Parka And I was comfortable. This year with the Minus 33 In 9° weather I sat with my cover all outfit unzipped all the way for 3&1/2 hr's. I will not have anything else. it's a good product ,But I'm going to buy myself some Litgher stuff in the Minus 33

Great stuff, I use the 400 weight when it really gets cold.
Way below zero kind of cold.
