Mix and match pieces that you find on sale and that fit what you want to do. I wear SKRE, Kuiu, FirstLite, Kryptek, pnuma. Those zip off kuiu bottoms-only used them once(the zip off part) after I got dressed and had to pee and found I had them on backwards, and it was after I had boots on. Came in handy then but otherwise never use that feature. A gimmick but can be useful. FirstLite base bottoms that are short are a little too short for me as the bottoms of leg ends up at my knee and the Kuiu ones are a little longer and stay down. Kuiu sizing I had to go up one size, pants from 34 to 36 and they fit much better. Most my stuff is older from them, I just don't tear it up while hunting. Some snags in the pants from thorns and such but no rips. All the brands listed no issues with seams coming apart or zippers failing. I have 2 rain jackets and one pant from Kuiu, ultra nx(no longer available), for packing and they work reasonably well. Not great for downpours but it will keep the wind off keep you reasonably dry and I haven't tore them on thorns or anything else yet. I have a set of SKRE rain pants and they seem to be a tougher material. Only have both wool and synthetic base layers from SKRE and only wool base layers from the others. I seem to only use down garments at camp, but I tend to be more mobile in my hunting and don't like exercising in down and it's noisy when moving.
