Me? I'm a hobo. I have a few items of camo that match, but they don't match my pack or my bow or my gloves and I don't have $400 boots.
It just seems like the industry is becoming too pricey for the average guy out here trying to pursue their passion.
This thread is intended to field this question:
What cost-effective or home-made gear have you discovered?
Personally, I love the three pack of stuff sacks from wal-mart. When backpacking, keeping your gear organized is imperative. These sacks are water resistant and tough. Also, I picked up a go-lite 90L pack on sale for $100. The pack is green, weighs less than 5lb, and handles weight like a champ. I don't know what it's rated for, but I had 70lb in it and I haven't found one busted stitch. Pretty good for a non-hunting pack.
