No matter the season, be it turkey, deer, bear or anything in between, it's no fun being cold and wet. When trying one’s hardest to sit still in a stand, ground blind, or next to a tree, few things make wriggling around more tempting than the steady creep of damp cold. Fortunately, Browning's Hell’s Canyon line of BTU-WD (Warm and Dry) hunting clothing is designed with just this hardship in mind.

Working from the bottom up, the BTU-WD Bib ($239.99) features a fully water and windproof shell, with 80 grams of PrimaLoft Hi-Loft Silver insulation to keep out the chill, and hand warmer pockets for when those BTU-WD Gloves ($39.99) need a little assistance. Despite this, the bibs remain decently breathable if the weather warms, thanks to a 2-Layer Pre-Vent shell. Traversing a few streams? The BTU-WD Bib has an elasticized boot gaiter with a boot hook, and fully taped seams for a truly waterproof experience.

Topside, the ensemble is paired with the BTU-WD Parka ($299.99). A 3-in-1 hunting parka, the BTU-WD Parka has a nifty removable insulated jacket, making it a perfect any-season option. While altogether the parka is incredibly warm, without the inner jacket it simply becomes a fully waterproof and breathable outer shell—perfect for spring turkey season! Other features include a fully adjustable attached hood, hand-warmer pockets, a chest pocket, harness access, a license tab and (in the removable jacket) the same 80 grams of insulation as in the bib.

All articles of clothing affixed with the BTU-WD moniker are currently available in Mossy Oak Break-Up Country. For more information, check out browning.com.
