Where are u finding all the new patterns it is coming out in? Well max1 would be good also. Kind of weird that they would offer realtree patterns when mossy oak makes it or owns it. I too got a bunch from Gander Mountain when it was on sale.

Met with one of the reps for Russell at the Western Expo. They had a set in Kings Mountain Shadow that they were giving away (I didn't win) but anyway they had a new catalog with their new gear and camo patterns.

I just picked up my first APXg2 gear last week. I got the zephyr pants and the L3 jacket. I am going to purchase the Gale Jacket also, but the store did not have my size when I went to purchase the othe stuff. Just have to wait until a new shipment comes in. The pants and jacket seemed to fit me really well and look forward to adding more layers and testing this stuff out this fall. Heading out west for the first time ever. Headed to Wyoming for antelope and mule deer, which I am hoping I will draw. Getting new stuff is always cool.

Just received word from them and they are indeed carrying the APXg2 in Realtree AP, Realtree Max-1, MO Infinity, MO Brush, and Kings Mountain Shadow. I'm not sure when it will be available yet.

I am trying to get into the Russell gear as well. Without being able to try it on for size, it's hit and miss. I bought the L4 Gale. Looks like a great jacket. I am a slim 5' 11" and 170lbs. The large is a bit big. Is the medium much smaller than the large? Any recomendation on the sizing for a person of my size? I tried on the L3 Zephyr pants, medium, several months ago at Sportsman Warehouse, when it was full price. The overall fit was good, but the rear seemed pretty snug when bending or squatting....and I have a pretty small rear (I know, TMI). They didn't have it in large for comparison. Any helpful input is appreciated...thanks.

Well, more Russell gear is on the way. I ordered the L1 Alpine top, L2 Tundra top, L3 Zephyr jacket and pants...all in large. I decided to keep the large L4 Gale jacket. Should be here Tues or Wed.

How late in the season do you guys use your zephyr pants. They seem pretty thin for late October early November. What have you found to be the best layer to out under them? I just ordered every piece they make except the Gale pants and Gale Vest which they didn't have my size(super sale on this stuff right now).

woodtick,
When it gets into late October and November, I usually wear my baselayer and zephyr pants when I hike in, but once I get set up start glassing, if I get cold, I throw on the Gale pants/bibs and I'm set. The combination of the baselayer, zephyr pants and the gale bibs have never left me cold.

Just my two cents...

I guess I'll have to tough it out with the Tundra base layer and Zephyr pants. I can't find the Gale pants anywhere!
