I'm looking to get some camo for this fall. I was at walmart tonight and they had a bunch of RealTree brand pants, jackets and shirts. I tried some on and liked it, especially for the price, but I figured when I got home I'd find more of a selection online. Not so. I can't seem to find much other than this: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Realtree-...izes/25187423?findingMethod=Recommendation:wm:RecentlyViewedItems#ProductDetail

They had some of these Realtree performance shirts and pants with orange and this lime green scent-factor logo. Any idea where I can find more of this stuff? Any reviews on it?
 
I bought two pairs of really nice scent control Realtree pants from there about a week ago. Payed $30 a pair. They have an antimicrobial lining in them to absorb scent. The pants are comfortable and look to be well made. No, it's not carbon or silver or trivium or whatever the newest thing is, but for $30 you can't beat it.

Well I bit the bullet. I went to Gander Mountain yesterday, and even their clearance camo was about $70 for the cheapest pair of pants. So I went back to Walmart and picked up 2 pair of pants, 2 hooded jackets, and one performance long sleeve shirt for under $150. I figure since I'm new to this, no point in spending so much money not even knowing how much I'm going to use it. They have all sorts of different matching camo. Tshirts, thermal shirts, etc...
I bought the one set because it said it was waterproof figuring I'll use that in the wet weather. The other green scent-factor line didn't specify waterproof and didn't seem as thick, so I'll use those on warmer, dryer days. I've attached some pictures for you to see (well I tried but it didn't work so click the links below to view. It should work). Not the best quality pic but you get the idea. It seems they were trying to mimic the Under Armour line, which I'd love to get, but couldn't spend all that money.

I hit the local walmart in May and found the realtree camo coats they have marked down to 7 bucks each.only size they had was 2 x I ended up buying 3 of them.regular 27 bucks each.
 
I'm grabbing some when I do my next run. I've had better luck just staying scent free as possible and spraying down with scent killer. Had scent lock for a while and never gained a benefit.
 
But that is not a issue once washed in scent killer as it contains uv killers. Not planning on wearing it out of the store into the woods.
 
I believe atsco makes a uv killer kit that last the life of the clothes as long as thier wash is used. Any clothing made in china will have uv brightners added regardless of brand.
 
Ive got a zip up hoodie from there. Didnt seem to effect the doe, or coyotes ive shot with it on. Some of the stuff can be really noisey, that i dont like. Buy what you can afford, and hit the woods.
 
I've got some camo purchased from Walmart and have killed deer wearing it. Imagine that!!!

I'm not paying a boat load of money for all my camo. I Don't buy it all there but have bought some.
 
I bought a shirt and a scent lock shirt, I thought my scent shirt said that it used the silverx threads.

Don't know about you guys, but I've had silverx socks for years. They don't do much for odor control, but it seems to work for antimicrobial purposes.

lol ok enjoy your cheap camo ......:ROFLMAO:


not bashing.....as long as it works right?:smile:
Since when is hunting about how much money you spend on your camo?? Some of you act like if you're not wearing a $300 set of camo you'll never kill deer. I've been killing deer in "cheap camo" for years now. They could take the same stuff that's sold at Wal-Mart, slap scent blocker on the tag, sell it at Cabelas for $100 and y'all would think its the best thing ever made. It's all made in damn china to begin with.
