Adding military surplus gear to your collection is a smart move for outdoorsmen.
Admit it, for every 10 new highly-advanced hunting camo patterns, there's an old school one that'll work just fine.
And where did that old school pattern come from? The military, most likely. That's just one reason military surplus gear is great.
Sportsman's Guide has the hook up, and not only do they hold one of the larger military surplus collections in the e-commerce world, but a ton of it is on sale right now, too.
The great thing about military surplus gear is that you know it's tested and proven to be durable and effective. A country's decision makers wouldn't let their military members out in the elements without protecting them.
It's notable that a lot of this stuff is for winter weather, which means instead of overpaying for new-fangled tech that may or may not work, you can rest easy knowing you're getting quality for investment.
