Think about the fact that you will wear these for the next 15 years. That is not much per year. I have some Cabelas coveralls that I bought about 18 years ago. Best 350 I have ever spent. Buy the best you can afford. Its (you're) worth it!!!

I have the Walls and Carhartt, they work ok but dont block the wind as I would like them to, I have been frost bit abd its a whole different ballgame with me as to getting cold, feet turned blue/black and skin peeled off like bad sunburn. I wear the Walls every day feeding cattle. The 100mph is what I want but the cost has stopped me so far.

I went out on two guided trips this past year when the weather was cold and rainy. I had resisted investing money in clothing. Even though I spent tons of dough on rod, reels and tackle. My wife intervened and for my birthday she bought me the BP 100 mph bibs and top. I wear a layer of under armour and Cold Gear tactical hood under that and for me it is perfect. Room to move around in, but warm and dry. She bought me the red suit 100 MPH so if I flew out overboard someone would see me:) This is a great set up ... I have had mine for 6 yrs and wouldn't consider anything else .. I am a big fan of the Underarmor also .. I look in the summer online at the outlet and find great deals on winter stuff .. I know it's expensive ... But as much as I fish in the winter my comfort is worth the money

Check out artic armour....if its 10-25 degrees out I'm toasty warm...if its above 30 I'm hot...and it has built in lfoatation and is not bulky. Bibs and coat about half the price of bps 100 mph
I used to be a big fan of bps 100 mph..had one that lasted 5 years.. Then got a new on a couple years ago and isn't worth a carp...ripped and tore in less than a year.. Will never buy 100 mph suits again

100mph suit has worked great for me. Been wearing the same suit for 6 years. When I am fishing with EL NITRO I don't need it, he has a heater in his boat!!!
