Title: striker ice hardwater suits
Post by: fishingislife on January 28, 2014, 11:46:10 AM
Anyone own a striker ice suit? I am in the market for a new suit and was think about getting the striker ice hardwater coat & bibs that float for $340. Deal or no deal?

I've had my artic armor I got from Mark's going on 3 yrs now. It's great. Light, warm, and floats. I see from some if the reviews the striker uses a lot of buttons that tend not to stay snapped. I got the camo AA, the other ones seemed alittle stiff to me and I deer hunt with it also. Have never gotten cold in a stand. Pros n cons ya know.

How much were you thinking on the red suit? Think I know someone who may be interested.

I have a striker predator suit. The issues people read about are from when striker started a few years back. I have used both and the Striker suit is much higher quality..you don't sweat to death in one when moving around (Like the AA suit ).

I am partial to mustang. It's the only one that its PFD USCG certified. This is important to me since we are big Erie night bite guys and the USCG will allow this as your pfd if you are wearing it. Then I use it for the ice as well
