New SITKA Equinox Guard Collection Solids – Insect/Tick Prevention
Adam Scepaniak 04.27.23
Turkey hunting season is upon us throughout much of the Lower 48 so it is time to don our best camouflage and Earth-tone clothing patterns in pursuit of chasing longbeards. Sitka is a leader in the hunting clothing arena and they have now expanded out their Sitka Equinox Guard collection to include solid colorways for year-round/off-season use as well as those who prefer Earth, Black, and Coyote color options.
Sitka Gear Coverage on AllOutdoor
The Sitka Equinox Guard turkey vest is an article of clothing that we previously reviewed here on AllOutdoor giving it much praise. It has a lot of mindful pockets and storage areas throughout, is super quiet with magnetic pockets, and a drop-down seat allows you to hunt anywhere in comfort. Now, you can get this vest in Earth, Waterfowl Timber, or Optifade Subalpine colorways.
The Sitka Equinox Guard Hoody is meant to be a lightweight base layer for those colder days and a single outer layer on the hotter ones. Superb for tick, mosquito, and insect protection when you are trying to stay deathly still in front of a big Tom this spring. It comes in 5 different color options of Sitka Black, Coyote, Optifade Subalpine, Elevated II, and Waterfowl Timber.
The Equinox Guard Pant helps prevent contact with insects in three distinct ways: limited skin exposure, bite-reduction fabric and built-in Insect Shield® protection. Comfortable and moisture-wicking, especially in hot, humid conditions, the pant is made from a lightweight SITKA-developed fabric that promotes airflow and features zippered leg vents that expel heat when moving fast and zip up for extra protection. Internal leg gaiters helps prevent against ticks and chiggers from crawling up your legs when worn under socks.
The Sitka Equinox Guard pant has an MSRP of $249 and comes in 5 different colors of Lead, Coyote, Optifade Subalpine, Elevated II, and Waterfowl Timber. For those venturing out into the woods this spring looking to fill a turkey, this pair of pants – as well as the rest of the Sitka Equinox Guard collection – could serve you well in your efforts.
