Optifade Forest The longer you are in your stand, the better your chance of success.  This is a generally accepted truth.  We like truths. The Forest Line is anchored by the core layering system that Sitka was founded on.  We then add key outerwear pieces that shift the balance towards R-values and quietness.  This is done by increasing loft, without adding weight, brushing face fabrics to add quietness, and eliminating unnecessary features that add noise.  We then pattern pieces to fit close to the body, making long extended sits bearable.  Coupled with the new Gore Optifade Concealment Big Game/Forest, that takes into account the distance and extreme angles of engagement and the vertical environment, you have a deadly duo.  This is how we define Forest.
