Looks like about it. I bought the new Predator jacket and bibs last year after handing down my old set to my son. No complaints about any of their stuff. I bought the slip on style Striker boots last year as well and they are great. Light, warm and just slip them on and off. I have their gloves and the Striker rod case and it’s all been good.
Good to hear keith, I have a pair of the old Strikemaster bibs from 8-10 yesra ago. I loved them but they failed last year so I had to buy a pair in February. All I could find was an XL pair of Climate bibs. To big & to warm so I just sold them and on the look for a new pair.
I’ve heard that about the Climate too, although I think you can remove the liner if you need to.
It seems like the Predator is the most popular.
And if you weren’t aware, Strikemaster has an all new ice suit out now. Keep an eye out on the “new” ads appearing at the top and side of this forum and you’ll likely see the ad for the them.
Thanks Andy, I’ll keep an eye out. Yes the Climate bibs have a removable liner. I had to buy the XL and I think a large would be plenty big for me. Even with that I think as you get warmer bibs the trad off is bulk. Just going to have to very impatiently wait for the stores to put out the ice gear!
Has Striker added a belt to their bibs yet? I have a pair of the Climate bibs that I really like, but I have a bad back and after about half a day in the Climate bibs my back starts to ache.
Never used to happen with my Ice Armor bibs, but I think that’s because the Ice Armor bibs had a pretty hefty belt that takes pressure off my back.
