Jase Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 Guys, In my search for new camo I've found that majority of the "silent" stuff has and outer shell of brushed fleece. I have some stoney creek gaiters made out of the same stuff and they pickup burrs and grass seeds like nothing else. For those of you using any gear with this brushed fleece type outer, do you have issues with burrs and seeds etc? If so is there a wsy to limit it? I've spent an hour or more pulling crap off my gaiters and I really don't want to have to do the same with pants ans tops. Cheers, Jase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adios Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I have found that any clothing that is soft and fluffy is bound to pick up burrs and seeds like mad. I just don't buy it. If it is not smooth cotton , polyester cotton , canvas or cordura surface I just don't use it in the bush . That is the drawback to silent clothing but I rekon a cotton or cottom polyester blend is fairly silent also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
len Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I get the seeds etc out using a nit comb or shave the material with a sharp knife which also gets rid of some of the fleece Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel assured next time you ask, it may well be expensive after all you have to wear them. At what price? and what price do you put on your comfort? Be like ants in ya jocks.
