Cold Weather Gear that also will float you?

[ShilohRed]

We at Wild Wolf Products may be taking on a line of Winter Cold Weather gear. The Bib's and jacket will float 3 people. Keep you warm down to sub freezing weather, its made for Ice fishing.
Waterproof/Breathable.
Windproof.
Sub-Zero Protection
Lightweight, No Bulk
Buoyant
Brushed Tricot Lining
3 layers of INSULTEX™ Insulation
Neck Flap to Block Wind
Adjustable Hood
Two Way Zipper with Snaps
NeoPrene Cuff With Velcro Adjuster
Toggles & Bungee For Tightening
Four D-Rings for Hanging Things
Four Large Cargo Pockets With Snaps
Lined Hand Warmer Pockets
Two Lined-Zipper Pockets
To me this sounds like the perfect Cold Weather gear, And priced at MSRP $385 for the jacket and Bibs.. But I think I can sell for less than MSRP. I know the stuff is not cheap. But how much is your life worth? And to be able to stay warm while fishing also? Now its not CostGuard Approved so you have to still have a Life Vest on board.
How many would like more info on this Cold Weather gear?

I think this is what you are talking about.

I would have bought this had I been aware of it when I purchased my Ice Armour suite which is very heavy and warm but doesn't float like the Artic Armour does.

sounds very similar to a already marketed cold weather gear, what are the key differences

any sample pictures, also what colors are you plan on starting with.

[ShilohRed]

Yes that is it. But was not going to post the name for now. I have a set coming to test,if I like the way they do. I will be the dealer for them. And give a discount for members of the site.
Readytofish If I do go for it. I will have most colors. Or be able to order any that i do not have in a short time. http://www.idigear.com/products.php Theres videos of the stuff on there site.

What are your products U sell? Do u have a web site? While I try to be selective on where online I buy, I do buy from Crappie.com folks as I feel they are all good folks to deal with. I feel knowing the dealer/seller online is just as important as the item U are buying. Thanks

Yes we have a Website. WildWolfproducts.com But as of now its for Catfish. We hope to add a lot of crappie stuff as we get the Extra Cash to allow us to expand. We make the floats that are on the site. And jug kits for catfish. And should have more products on it within 2 months. Hope to add Tube's and other plastic's for crappie.

Artic Armor outter wear has got to be the best I've ever worn.
At $385 it sounds like your talking about the camo set.
The Red/black and green/black sells for $315 retail.
These have padded knees for kneeling on ice.

Talk about light weight ...I know I'll be wearing mine as rain gear to go out for early spring and late fall fishing up here in northern Mn.
I've had several suites from the top makers ,but nothing compares.


There are totally wind proof and water proof.
They are not coast guarded rated as floatation ,but you will float in them....go watch the videos in the previous link at I.D.I.

I have been out this year in as much as 40 below 0 (windchill) 25 below normal temps and have never gotten cold.
They also make a pair of gloves that give a guy all of the dexterity you'll need and are waterproof as well that'll keep your fingers warm.

I had 3 portables to break down and all of the gear to load and I never had to take them off nor did I get cold hands.Even with a hand getting dunked into a open hole so the glove was wet on the outside ...hands warm on the inside.

I know several guys that wear this gear and everyone agrees that the suit has got to be one of the most valued piece of gear we own.

I'll fess up and say I Pro Staff for I.D.I. and I'm dang proud to show off I.D.I.'s colors every chance I can get.




Everytime a guy asks me on the ice is it worth it I can't help but to smile.
The suit is loaded with great features and since I'm the 1st guy on the ice and the last one off most years my safety is worth everything.I just took another step to making back home alive!

With this statment "Now its not CostGuard Approved so you have to still have a Life Vest on board." I really find it incredulous that the CostGuard dosen't consider this a acceptable floatation device especially after watching those videos. I would find it rather hard to take to spend that kind of money and have some clown issue me a ticket for a improper flotation device.

Surely the CostGuard will shortly be considering that a legal Life Vest but realize the CostGuard is just another all knowing federal agency that always acts in our best interest. :rolleyes:
