Anyone use the Nomad turkey hunting clothes? Was looking at them in the Mack's catalog. Reviews?

Well thought out designs. Way better quality than Ol Tom.  Love the cooling shirt. It's a late season must have.

Everything I've bought from Nomad has been pretty good. The long sleeve cooling tee is hard to beat on a warm spring day!

A few people say the pants fade bad. I don't know yet, I got a new pair this year and love the fit and finish, just hope they hold color.

Thanks for the comments so far.  How does everything fit? True to size?

I bought two pairs of the NWTF pants last year.  One in bottomland and one in obsession. The first wash I did with the bottomland I forgot to turn them inside out and the did fade a little.

Since then I've turned them inside out and haven't seen much fade.

Won't stop me from buying another pair,  I plan on ordering another before the season.

I just checked the nomad site and see they have pants in Greenleaf listed on there!

I can confirm the nomad pants are still fading terribly. I turned inside out and washed per label. One wash and they have faded a lot. I will not pay the money for these again. Might as well just get Mossy Oak Tibee for the cost difference and same performance. IMO

I've got a Nomad button up shirt that the sleeves are way short and it's like bat wings under the arms. I don't know if it will fade as I've never worn it to get it dirty. I'm going to give it to a short armed guy who might use it to hang glide.

I think nomad is very overrated. I've had a shirt from them that was OK but was not durable. I got a pair of the NWTF gloves from them for like $25 for bow season....the seams on the thumb split after one weekend of hunting. I bought them out of state so couldn't exchange in the store. I called nomad and they offered to replace them which I did. The second pair of gloves split on the same thumb at the same seam after only a few hunts. I again called and exchanged them for another pair. I used them for the first time this spring and they're split again at the seam. I give up. Not worth the hassle anymore, meanwhile my 3 yr old UA lightweight gloves are still perfect except for the tons of snags from the heavy use I've put them through....I also HATE when companies like nomad put fluorescent orange writing or seams on their camo clothing or don't camo the whole item and leave a giant plain spot of clothing for some decoration or branding like their gaiters or whatever......just a personal annoyance. I say no to Nomad

Never had any Nomad stuff, probably never will.  But other camo prone to fade, I turn inside out, cold wash and air dry.  I think the heat from a dryer is also a big culprit in fading.   Since I started doing th above fading seems minimal.

Looks like nice camo but pricey.
