Protect Yourself from Extreme Cold in Northern Outfitters Winter Clothing

Posted in Freshwater Angling on the January 28, 2010

Northern Outfitters has revolutionized winter gear technology – for your parka, pants, boots and the rest – with our patented Vaetrex insulation. Vaetrex stands for Vapor Attenuating and Expelling, Thermal Retaining. In English, that means our clothing retains warmth while wicking moisture away from your body. This is the very best, most efficient system for warm, breathable winter parkas and other outerwear.

Northern Outfitters’ clothing has been tested in the most extreme environments known to man. An outstanding parka, snow pants, boots and mittens system is needed in any extreme cold undertaking. Who chooses Northern Outfitters? The top mushers in the Iditarod, scientists stationed in the Antarctic, extreme cold weather hunters, those who work in the elements and any number of others who live with a winter climate that could be deadly.

Our parkas and snow pants should be worn (they work best) with only a thin layer of polypropylene underneath. The bulk of many, many layers is gone, and you can work or play freely. Starting with our exclusive Vaetrex technology that literally wicks moisture away, our gear ensures that you will stay warm even in temperatures down to -60° F. When your team and your life depends on being able to make quick decision and move freely, Northern Outfitters winter clothing fits the bill every time.

Outstanding dogsled racer Aily Zirkle wrote to thank us for helping her races with our unbeatable parka, snow pants, boots and mitten system. “I wanted to let you know that your gear improved my race. This system is truly amazing. I raced both the Copper Basin 300 and the Iditarod in your gear. The 50 below CB 300 was what proved to me what a quality product it is. Iditarod was no walk in the park this year either, and I was confident in Northern Outfitters winter clothing when others where freezing nearly to death. No more multiple layers. I will surely be ordering some additional gear for next season,” wrote Aliy Zirkle, champion musher.

Albert Marquez of Suwanee, GA, also wrote to thank us for the comfort we gave to his trekking in the Arctic. He talked about trying many brands of clothing without satisfactory results until he came upon Northern Outfitters. “Your Expedition Arctic Parka is by far one of the warmest and most comfortable that I have ever worn. Last year I traveled from Fairbanks to Barrow in blistering conditions with temperatures reaching well below -60°F, and I stayed warm and toasty during our 20-day winter trek thanks to you. Thank you Northern Outfitters for your awesome gear. I definitely will not trade my Arctic system for anything else! ” Albert Marquez wrote.

The moisture wicking properties of the Northern Outfitters clothing was the subject of Dwight Miloff’s comments. “I had always heard that working up a sweat was the first No-No of Arctic survival. The Experts need to rewrite that rule. With this Vaetrex gear, you could feel the sweat tricking down your back during hard exertion, but when you slowed down in a short time, you would feel dry again without EVER feeling cold. The only time that was uncomfortable was when I was out of my gear in my sleeping bag. I am planning a trip back to the Arctic next season. You can bet I will be using your gear again and this time Northern Outfitters’ extreme cold Sleeping Bag!! Thanks Again,” said Dwight Miloff, Billings MT.

Whether you are living and working in a very cold winter environment, or traveling there to work or play, Northern Outfitters can make your experience one of comfort, confidence and fun. Our clothing is engineered to keep you safe and warm in the worst winter weather. We look forward to hearing from you.
