I would agree that the hunting clothes industry is just another money pit.Yes I can only imagine how nice it would be to hunt in SITKA GEAR but I dont have that type of money to give.
My solution is when my work pants have become worn down I go to the sewing department and purchase RIT clothes die.This also allows me to taylor the exact color scheme for the area.
I realise most game is color blind,but I sure get a good laugh when other hunters walk right past my ground blind.

you gotta use your call and see if you fool them in to thinkin a deer is near

I wear whatever is clean, whatever is warm when its cold out. I have and do use camo but the stuff I'd like to own is way too expensive for my budget so I head to goodwill. I was there yesterday and picked up a couple of great 100% wool sweaters.(fantastic fall colors too) I came real close to finding some wool pants...man! I got to get more weight off...lol then my chances of finding some that fit will definitely go up.

My frist elk purple shorts, green top. Walmart is the bomb,$2 camo shirt,$6 shoft shell,$5 camo pants. Camo dose keep other hunters from secert elk spot. I walk with the wind in my face,when the wind changes so do I. It is easier to buy camo cheaper in better matirals around here. It's also the fashion at the highschool. I do like the unscented deoderaunts and laundry soap, but I can not stand the perfume smells on me or my clothing. I always feel like an old lady when I smell flowery scents.

Camo yes. Cover scents no.

I use Camo,But the only scents I use are the ones I make. I always get some pine needles ,honey suckle or whatever Foliage is around the area I want to hunt and then boil it down in a pot for like 25 min. until the water has reduced,let it cool and strain it through a coffee filter into a spray bottle.The pine works best.And it smells better than the synthetic stuff.I don't use attractant scents.

No camo no cover ups. I do have a pair of cheap pants that I wear when I go out shooting or messing around in the woods, I dont care what I do to them. As far as hunting I will be in wool, cotton, and maybe some fleece but not modern looking stuff.

I'm not wearing camo anymore, and for a cover scent, boil some dirt from your hunting area and strain it into a spray bottle.  Instant earch scent.

I like some camo, never liked messing w/ scents though. I think animals can separate scents so unless you are overpowering them w/ skunk, they will still smell you.

Some camo, some not.  The only time I really worry about it is when I sit in really sparse trees after leaf fall.  Then I wear whites with a branch pattern so I don't look like a giant black blob against the sky.

I wear good, useful hunting clothing regardless of what color or pattern..Most of the stuff I like only comes in camo.Wool is the only non camo I wear.I do think its a waste of time to rely on camo to kill game.

I go for comfort. I occasionally wear military surplus pants just because they are so darn comfortable. Never wear full matching garb, and never scents, or cover ups of any kind. I do however try to keep common houshold odors out of them by hanging them outside to air.

I am a camo hunter when hunting turkey, headnet, gloves, camo bow and arrows. For deer it is what the weather is. Most of my warm coats are wool and they come in a Columbia camo, Filson green, and Woolrich red plaid. I just bought a wool coat on ey for 20 bucks and it is red. My wife wont let me wear the Filson or Woolrich hunting. Woolrich came out with a green and black classic hunting coat just like the old red and black coats.
