[BUSTER]

crappt tire flyer has a foat suit in it....says float suit M-XL reg.279.99 on sale for 179.99 i wonder if coast guard approved?

Buster i have the XL HH and it fits realy nice.

i just bought the HH alpha yesturday at Lebaron with my discount card its a really good deal and its super warm i used it yesturday and today out trouting in the boat and was pretty toasty

[e-z-out]

Thats the same one i have Wiser super warm. Just picked up my new Snow boots Baffin Impact so warm. Now point me in the right direction to get some use out of the gear

I just picked up the same one myself last week at LeBaron's for $269 + tax

 

I also picked up a pair of irish setter boots thinsulate ultra 800 gram,100% gore-tek for $145. They seem to be pretty warm and no leaks.

Buster you would need an XL I am 5 9" and 195lbs I found a mustang suit too tight in large remember

you need to leave some room so you can dress with a couple of layers underneath.

Just like others I find the legs too long my arms fit in just fine somehow I ended up with short legs I just titen the velcro around the legs and it stays put.

 

Don't buy a yellow suit the bird jokes will be flying for the rest of your life

Hi all - I'm thinking of getting the HH Alpha suit as well. Does anyone have any complaints about it? Sure looks like a nice suit.

[douG]

I think that is the same suit marketed as Nautilus 1000. It has neoprene cuffs at the sleeve, hand warmer pockets right where they should be, and SUSPENDERS. If so, that is a great piece of gear.

 

We like the suspenders.

[GBW]

For the price I paid I like my Mustang MS-185. I have worn it 5 times so far and it's been great (mind you 2 times were test runs with the kids in the snow but hey that still counts )...

[walleyemen]

The HH suits are great ,i've had mine for 3 seasons still looks like new, and super warm, my only problem now is my feet LOL!

[scugpg]

I was really impressed with the Alpha suit when I tried it on. Thanks for the replies

[scugpg]

I picked mine up yesterday at Angling Outfitters in Woodstock!

 

I'm 6'2 205 and a L seemed to fit me a lot better than the XL. From their site at bottom of page in the suit chart http://www.helly.ca/EN/products/sizingChart.cfm
