Floating suits?

[slurpie]

Is Artic Armor the only suit that floats? From you guys that have them are they warm. A suit that floats sure would make a gut feel a little more comfy on first ice. Thought about getting getting the ice armour suit but would like the suit that floats. Also is there ant store that sells Artic Armor? Would be nice to try it on before buying it.

Mustang makes float suits, best in the industry, but very spendy. Sterns does also, less spendy, not as ice-friendly a gear.

The Artic Armor is the most cost effective floatation capable suit around.

The AA suits are very warm and yes they will help you if you fall through the ice.

We can get the correct size for you if you give us your heigth and weight.

You can get them in the Outdoor Pro Store. You will also receive a free pair of gloves and free shipping.

My wife bought me the Camo one last year, works great. I was told that whatever you do, don't machine dry the suit, it will lose its insulation properties.

Got mine last year, and love it! They are comfortable, Warm, and fishing friendly( lots of pockets)- They also work great for those chilly early spring crappie adventures... I bought mine in brainerd, but I have also seen them at scheels, and reeds- Its a great investment- good luck!

Got mine as a Christams gift from the wife last year. (Once she found out there was one that floats, that what I was getting, I had no say in the matter!!!)

They are warmer and lighter than I expected. Been real happy with it so far. It would make a great early spring/late fall suit for the boat, since its waterproof as well. (I got mine at Joe's in St Paul. Select Richard's in the Cities carried them as well last year, plus I believe certain Gander's carry them as well - Brainerd off the top of my head)

I love my AA suit. I use it spring, fall and winter. Light weight, great in the rain and it could save your life! Best all around suit I have ever owned.

We have Arctic Armor suits on display at our store in Waconia, you can see them and try them on there if you like.

I have the blue ice armor suite, which I love...but, wished I would've done some more research at the time and gotten the floatable AA suit instead

I know a couple of guys that Have the Mustangs (fished in alaska) and wear them at Milacs....only problem is they are FL orange and light up like a x-mas tree....but they are safer than wearing anything else on the lake

Wish i would have known the srore was in waconia drove threw there on thursday. Do you get the free gloves if you purchase there vs online? I think me and my brother will each get a suit, and what is special about the black suit or just the color? thanks for all the replies.

They offer the green/black or red/black or camo

The difference between the colors and the camo is the camo has a soft outer shell good for hunting and being quieter.

You also can choose the type of liner in the color ones . A brushed tricoat liner or a smooth liner.

Its worth going back to Waconia, ProFishingSupply, to try them on for size and style. I warn you you put it on probibly wont want to take it off their that comfy.

New this year is an all black suit as well.

I put the AA near the top of my list in fishing purchases I've made in the past couple of years.

I did not know that that's gotta be a sharp looking outfit.

Bringing my camo out in the boat tomarrow for sure. Not to sound wimpy but just in case I get the chills from this wretched cold I have.

I keep my Arctic Armor suit in the boat too at this time of year, I do a lot of fishing after dark and the suit is perfect for the cold nights.

Do they make any larger then the 3xl I tried on at the ice show last year?

3xl is the largest size they make

Are the Ice Armor suits and Arctic Armor made by the same company? Looking to go from my grey suit to a AA camo and I have a med in the Ice Armor but looking at AA sizing chart it looks like I would be a small. I'm 5' 6" 195# I just can't believe I would fit in a small.

They are not made by the same company.

You'd want a medium AA suit.
