Spring to time camo that's not cotton?

[buzzardroost]

I got another walls 10x item in today ( the 1/4 zip shirt) and I really like the material... Rip stop polyester like. I think it may be what I put on a lot this spring

If you don't mind spending a bit of $ take a look at Sitka.  I use their baselayer long sleeve shirts often as my outer garmet if it gets warm and as an inner layer if it's cold.  If cooler or cold I often add a layer of Cabelas microtex, thinsulate vest, etc.  Cabelas microtex are the best shirt I've found for quick drying and wear like iron.  They are also reasonably cheap.  Microtex comes in 2 thicknesses.  One is fairly thick and the other thin.  They also make microtex pants but I don't like them as much as Sitkas.  The pants you will likely love if you sweat are Sitka 90's.  They breath well, dry super fast, and are fairly stretchy.  They almost feel like you are wearing pjs...and are super comfortable.  I wear them all the time in Alaska, Colorado, Nebraska, Wyo, etc.  If it's cold I have the choice of Sitka base layer bottoms or Patagonia capalene.  The capalenes come in several thickness depending upon how cold and how much hiking I intend on doing.

I have seen the microtex gear from Cabela's. The Only complaint I have is that they do not seem to come in greener patterns. You see I have a special kind of O.C.D. and  have been obsessing about getting my Springish colored patterns. I know it's crazy but it is just my personal issue. My wife thinks I an batsh*t crazy about my hunting patterns sometimes. If they had the microtex in Obsession or even Extra with Green I would be all over it. I like the thickness of it. It seems tough and just heavy enough.

The Sitka gear is pretty awesome stuff but out of my price range. I also like the First Lite stuff but again out of my price range. I generally don't even look to closely at those brands just so I don't know what I am missing!

Check out firstlite.com. The clothing is mainly merino wool. It is super comfortable and breathes well which helps regulate body temp. The only con is that it is a little pricey, but they have sales all the time.

all my Ol' Tom Stuff is super lightweight and vbented. Works great here in Bama.

There's another way to go with this.  I use a handwarmer.

I start off the day with bibs, a long sleeve T-Shirt and layer on as needed-- sometimes it's a wool sweater and field jacket, sometimes just the jacket.  If it's going to be really cold, I add a Zippo Handwarmer (just like the old Jon-ee handwarmer).  I put it in the front pocket of my bibs.  Once it is in under the sweater and coat, it keeps me warm by warming all that blood in my heart and lungs, which then circulates to the rest of my body.  I learned this trick when my son was a competetive bagpiper.  The pipers needed to keep there hands warm, but they could not use gloves.

After it warms up in the morning, I take the Zippo handwarmer out and put it in a ziploc bag.  That makes the fire go out pretty fast.  I then remove the sweater and field jacket as needed and stow them in my decoy bag.  I figure the Zippo handwarmer keeps me about as warm as a full set of insulated bibs and parka without all the weight and bulk.

Shorts & Tee shirt w/ Leafy suite. I also like my Mucks. When I get to the truck, boots & leafy suite off and Moszkito slippers on. Don't forget to crank the truck first and let the A/C roll! First thing.

If it's real warm or humid, like afternoons here in Georgia, I sometimes wear shorts and a loose T shirt under a pull on leafy suit.

Most times, I wear a lightweight button up with Ol Tom bibs.

I love hunting out of overalls, they stay pulled up and I can loosen them and unbutton the sides to get some air flow.

The only bad part of overalls is finding them. I hate that Ol Tom discontinued them a couple of years back, if I had it to do over, I would of bought a lifetime supply. Not even sure if anyone makes regular hunting overalls anymore

I could kick myself as well...I keep my eyes open but nothing yet...?
