Artic Armor Camo Suit, As durable as the others???

[rodmoen]

Just got my new Artic Armor suit in the mail yesterday, I got the camo in case I need it for late season ducks or something. When I ordered the suit i didnt realize the camo has a different outer fabric. My question for anyone that has the suit is do the knees of the camo suit still hold up well to kneeling on the ice and what not, or will they wear out faster in the camo cloth.

The fabric itself has held up fine on my suit. The only rips or tears are directly a result of my own clumsiness.

I did find that I would get more "dingle balls" around my ankles with the camo fabric when trampling through deeper snow then those with the regular fabic on the other AA suits and now after 4 years it will soak up a bit more moisture if it rains.

The biggest issue I had was with the color fading. I was told they would replace the suit, which is good CS in my book, I just need to get around to sending it back in.

With all that said, I still think that AA is a great choice for a multi-season suit.

I have 3 AA suits, the red & white, gren plus and the camo.

I wear the camo jacket almost year round except the summer. The bibs I wear in the boat for fall fiashing, all winter and again in the spring with the boat. I also kneel quite a bit and climb trees while archery hunting.

My camo suit is approx 4 or 5 years old and last week I had to sew up a one inch cut that I did tear on the endgate of the truck.

This is one tough suit and I am more than happy with the material.

I have hunted in this suit in pretty hard rain and the suit did get very heavy as the outer layer seems to have soaked up some moisture.

With that said, no water ever made it through to my skin, not one drop.
