Steel28 Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 (edited) After trying few other brands I've decided to get Mustang Integrity HX 2 piece suit (bibs/coat). I know it's a bit expensive but you live once, right? I'm thinking it will be very comfortable during some mild weather and I like the "no rip" material. Anyone has this suit? any opinions are appreciated. Edited November 23, 2010 by Steel28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone has this suit? any opinions are appreciated. I have the Mustang 2 piece and like it BUT there are two issues, at least that bother me a little that may be bigger issues for you: 1. The jacket is quite bulky and stiff. 2. There is no hood. The advantage of the two piece for me made me overlook these.......

Dara Posted November 23, 2010 Report Share Posted November 23, 2010 Can you get a seamstress to sew in a zipper for a hood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyb Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 (edited) After trying few other brands I've decided to get Mustang Integrity HX 2 piece suit (bibs/coat). I know it's a bit expensive but you live once, right? I'm thinking it will be very comfortable during some mild weather and I like the "no rip" material. Anyone has this suit? any opinions are appreciated. I purchased the Integrity HX 1-piece floater suit (MS195 HX) a while ago and it is the best suit you can buy out there in my opinion. I wanted a floater suit that was high-quality and could be used in all weather conditions, including heavy rain. The problem was that I also wanted a 2-piece floater suit. Be careful, Mustang does NOT make a 2-piece Integrity HX suit. Yes they have an Integrity HX bib pants, but no Integrity HX jacket!...I know, crazy right? I even had to email them as I couldn't believe/understand why they don't have that option. The jacket is the standard Integrity line, not the HX (waterproof) line. The 1-piece is amazing though, it keeps you perfectly dry and warm in the heaviest rain/nastiest weather you can throw at it. A big plus for this suit compared to many other brands is the air-soft foam, it is thinner and way more flexible than anything I've seen or used. It's not anywhere near as bulky as the other brands, or cheaper Mustang lines. at $500 for the Integrity HX suit, it's pricey but is the best suit you can buy if you're planning on fishing in some nasty weather and want to be comfortable and safe. The best way I can describe it is that it's a top of the line gore tex rain suit, with the survival suit guts underneath. Hope this helps!

tonyb Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Actually! I was incorrect, it's the other way around. They sell the Integrity HX bib pants (MP4225 HX) but there is NO Integrity HX Jacket! (The Integrity jacket is not waterproof - MC1524 ) Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steel28 Posted November 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 thanks a lot Tony, might consider one piece Integrity HX. Too bad about the jacket though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyb Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Steel28...I wanted the same thing and was astonished that they didn't have the waterproof jacket to go with the bib-pants. I picked up my 1-piece Integrity HX at BassPro...so they do carry them there and it might be a good idea to try it on, or at least check out how nice the air-soft foam is compared to other brands, it's a noticeable difference. Happy shopping! Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
