I have been seeing ads on youtube for the Baerskin Tactical hoodie for about a year or so now and it looks cool and comfortable. So I clicked the link and ordered one around the 1st of the month.

I got the charge on my card  and confirmation emails  immediately from a company named True Swat. I have yet to receive shipping info so I sent them and email and started checking reviews on the company.

They get terrible reviews! Most stating they are a scam and don't order from them lol. There are several stating that it is the best product they have ever purchased. And some that say it took months to receive the product.

It was only $100 so I'm going to wait it out and see. Just wondering if anyone else here has ordered from them?

There was thread last week or so on this.

Seems like the consensus was that it's Chinese crap.

Plus, how tactical do you need your hoodie?

LOL. I've seen those ads. $30 jacket, marked up to $200, 50% off "special" and some slick marketing.

Sorry, you got took even if they overnight the thing to you.

"Tactical" in the name means you can charge three times as much as its non "Tactical" competitors.

A rip-off of the TAD Ranger wrapped in cheesy advertising by a shady company. What could go wrong. No thanks.

If you are gonna spend 100 bucks on a hoodie I'm sure Filson, Orvis, or the much more economical Duluth would be a way better bet.

$100 for a Chinese made hoodie?  Better deliver that next day air with a hand written apology for the down home rapin.

We have how many established outdoor brands making high end fleece jackets and you go and buy one from some goofy company off a YouTube ad? How did you think that was going to go?

"Tactical" clothes are a joke unless you need something in a Multicam flavor, then find the military side of you favorite outdoor recreation company and buy that.

Looks like the basic POS "tactical" hoodie sold on Aliexpress for ~$15 or by third party vendors Amazon for <$40.

Now this is a tactical hoodie!

What makes a hoodie tactical? Does it have Velcro and molle ? Is it endorsed by seals and guntubers?

Yow. Looks great but I probably don’t have that much money in any 2-3 jackets I have. I’ll GBPSE.

Probably because that’s not what synthetic fleece fabrics were designed to do.

Try an old school Marine Corps Polartec fleece pullover under a Supplex nylon shell garment.

I have the zip up jackets, they work well for the temps they are designed for.

The wife wore hers all the time, probably one of her favorite jackets when there was just a bit of chill in the air.

i was worried i fell for a similar scam last month.   have been freezing my ass off and decided to get a new coat.  pulled the trigger on one of the boreal mountain anoraks.   next 3 weeks every add on social media i saw was for anoraks and was using some of the boreal guy's pics, but for like $50 when i had just paid a couple hundred.  The comments in the ads were awful saying what crap it was.

but mine eventually came and i love it.  very warm and well made.

You can't really rock a Fetterman unless you have a giant neck goiter and a sub-70 IQ.

A few years ago I picked up a couple of hoodies from different makers that were listed as "Tactical".  They have zipper pockets on the chest and or arms for cell phones, why I wanted them, and velcro on the sleeves for whatever patch you want to broadcast your tribal affiliation with.  But they also weren't expensive, maybe $30 for the priciest one.

That’s why I am not buying what they are advertising.  I will stick with a cheap fleece from Academy and a windbreaker.

Is that the one with the guy wearing a bunch of hoodies all at once with one on backwards? That one pisses me off every time I see it.
