Since hunting is one of our passions, you can bet we’re looking for women’s hunting apparel at SHOT Show. With big-game season behind us, we’ve got our sights set on springtime turkey hunting. Although we do hunt from blinds on occasion, we primarily spot and stalk. We’re happy to have found some women’s hunting apparel to help us in our hunting quests.

Earthletics – Lifestyle Apparel
Earthletics offers lifestyle apparel with camo accents. It nearly jumped off the rack, as we walked by. Every hunter needs to get in shape and you know we gals always like to look good while they’re doing it. Lea is positive her friends will want to wear these items to the gym, field, on a run or around town.
The jacket is quilted polyester with camo mesh inserts. The pants are a polyester/spandex blend and even have a waistband pocket to store your house key or money.
These items will be available in August 2015. We love the black with Realtree Xtra accents, but they will also be available with AP Blue or AP Magenta accents. Sizes XS-XL
MSRP: Ladies Quilted Jacket $60, Ladies Yoga Pant $45

First Lite – Performance Series
You can bet when we’re waiting for sunrise and turkeys to fly down, we’ll have some chilly mornings. Lea and I are always looking for quality Merino wool layering pieces. The 100% Merino wool Performance Series for women is top notch. It works as a base layer for warmth, but the 170-weight fabric is also ultra moisture wicking. You’ll have no worries of stinkin’ it up when the temps jump from 20 degrees to 70 in a day’s hunt.
The Lupine top and Larkspur bottom will be available in Fusion, ASAT, Realtree Max-1 and Realtree Xtra camo patterns June of 2015. They also come in solid black, sage or golden colors. Prices vary with color choices.
MSRP: Lupine Crew $65 – $75, Larkspur Bottom $90 – $100
Girls with Guns – Camo Jacket and Pants
At the GwG booth, we checked out their recently launched lightweight camo for women. We were pleased with the fit and tailoring of the pieces, but function also caught our attention.
The mid-weight jacket is built with a wind resistant fabric. It has a removable hood and harness slit.
The pants are made of a lightweight, breathable, water-resistant fabric. There are 6 pockets for storing calls, tags and other field necessities. The belt loops get a thumbs-up from a hunter who likes to carry her multi-tool, range finder and sometimes a pistol on her belt.
These pieces are currently available in Mossy Oak Break Up Infinity.
MSRP: Midweight Jacket, sizes XS – XL-$139; 2X-$149; Lightweight Pant XS-L $109, 2X-$139

Próis Galion Rain Line
A staple in any hunters’ wardrobe is rain gear, and Próis Hunting Apparel has launched a newly designed system. This light, packable rain gear weighs less than 12 ounces. Its fabric is rated for torrential downpours, yet is extremely breathable. The hood adjusts from the sides, as well as back, so it doesn’t obscure your view. All zippers on the jacket and pants are waterproof and seams are taped. The pants have side zippers that start just below the hip. These can be zipped up or down for ventilation, or to reach base layer pockets. An added feature, that you may not find in other gear are built-in detachable boot gaitors.
The Galion design will be available in fall of 2015 in Realtree Max1, AP Xtra and solid olive colors.
MSRP: Jacket $199, Pants $179
Wolverine – Siteline Boots
Boots are ever important hunting apparel pieces, and speaking of rain and mud, we think “traction.” When we were at the Wolverine booth, when came across a leather boot with lime-green accents. It is a lightweight, waterproof hunting boot for women. The rubber-lugged sole will help maintain traction during the hunt. This boot will be available in low, mid and calf designs, fall of 2015.
Women’s Sizes 5-11
MSRP: Low $115, Mid $120, Calf $145

We are checking into this … thanks for letting us know!
Christine,
It looks as though we had the date incorrect. FirstLite informed us the women’s line will be officially launched the first part of June.
The FirstLite website doesn’t list any women’s clothing 🙁
