Title: Asbell Wool
Post by: hessian on September 15, 2020, 12:44:23 PM
I'm ready to expand my wardrobe and want to add a Pathfinder to it, would any of you Asbell fans be able to post some in the field pics in your Asbell wool? Im leaning towards the Woodland magic or either evening stand colors. Thanks in advance!

I'm also interested in Woodland Magic but have never seen it in action.

 Adam,
   Here is my Evening stand green that I was wearing for quite a few years and I took the color out of the picture so folks could see what it looks like as many have said over the years in deer vision.  So this "Could " possibly be how the deer may see it and I am not going to debate over what exactly a deer may see but here is what they "Might" see as far as color is concerned.

Not trying to hijack this thread but I have also been interested in the Pathfinder recently. Can anyone comment on fit? Is the sizing such that it is meant for somewhat bulky base layer or more like a standard shirt/light jacket sizing? Thanks!

I wear large shirts, large tall and for Asbell, all of my wool is xl. I layer under. The sleeves can get tight around the arms with long underwear underneath my Pathfinders but they may have shrunk a hair. I don't consider my Pathfinders a real cold weather outer layer because the Montana Magic wool isn't as thick as my Evening Stand Brown pullover. Love the pattern though. I usually don't hunt under 20 degrees.

I prefer the zip-up jackets.  I don't like to wrestle with pulling clothing on/off over my head if I can avoid it.  Especially since I keep most of warmer things in my pack and put them once I am strapped in my treestand.  Would have to un-strap to pull things on/off over my head, not so with full length zippers or buttons.  It comes down to personal preference.

I know it's not going to be the best for camo,but I'm fixing to order a Pathfinder in the Northern Lights. That really looks neat to me!

I have a zip-up in the silent stalker pattern. It looks like bad plaid from the 70's, but literally disappears in the woods. I love it. It's the pattern under this Martin Hunter.

I've never been much of a camo fan, muted plaids and greens work for me.  Asbell Wool looks like some great stuff.

It does but everytime I go to order a jacket it says out of stock.  Someday I'll look at the right time and catch one in stock.
That's the trouble with low volume, quality products.   They get bought up fast for good reason.

I personally prefer Timber Ghost. I have the zip jacket and vest in that. I went to scout some public land with a friend. I was wearing the Timber Ghost jacket with the hood up. We got and 8 yards apart with brush between us and he said,"Curtiss where are you?" I could see him but I blended in to the forest even it was still green. I had to wave my hand for him to see where I was. I tried to post a picture but it was too big of a file and I can't resize on my phone.
