FIRST LITE APPAREL BORN IN IDAHO/USA FROM THE OWNERS:

MOVING BEYOND WOOL TO CREATE THE BEST PERFORMING LAYERING KIT IN THE HUNTING WORLD bottoms, socks and headgear. It is by far the best material for base and mid layer hunting gear (I don’t think we need to restate all of the reasons why). With that in mind though,

2013 FIRST LITE 2012

For 4 years we have been living in our Merino wool tops,

there are many hunting situations in which wool does not provide the final outer We’ve had a lot of requests for rain gear, insulation, cold weather pants and gloves and these are all things we have wanted to do, but we wanted to do them right. We wanted to find the best materials, use the best design, include all the right features to make an outerwear product line that is unique and offers hunters something they can’t get with the other products on the market. We talked to a lot of people – hunters, backcountry skiers/snowboarders, snowmobilers, alpine climbers – people that use gear in situations where their life is on the line if that gear doesn’t perform. We found a new fabric technology that improves breathability by 50-100% over the current standard for waterproof/breathable fabric. This technology also utilizes active carbon, so odor does not build in the fabric. And, the technology can be applied to a variety of different types of fabrics – soft shell, hard shell, insulation, lining, and fleece. We found that no one in the hunting world was using this technology, so we jumped on it, tested it and started designing the perfect compliments to our wool layers. We took the combined experience of our friends, peers, and ourselves, applied this new fabric technology along with cutting edge design and attention to detail and created 3 new styles that, when added to the existing Merino wool collection creates the most versatile, high performance layering kit available to today’s hunter. You will notice our new tag line – Go farther. Stay longer. We are taking this very seriously and think about that statement every time we evaluate new fabrics or new designs. Our gear will let you go deep into the woods and stay there as long as it takes to fill that tag in any situation.

FIRST LITE LAYERING KIT

It’s no secret that the key to being comfortable in a wide range of hunting situations is to layer your clothing. Each layer provides the optimal performance benefits for its specific intended purpose, be that base/next-to-skin, mid/insulating or outer/shell layer. First lite’s layering kit deliberately builds a performance system that eliminated the weak link. Its mission is to provide comfort, odor control, and thermal regulation to optimize the hunt. From early season California black tail to late season Iowa white tail the underlying goal is always to help you hunt better.

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. The kit uses a comprehensive approach of fabric technologies; use focused fit and hunting specific features to produce a series of products that are designed to work together to address the widest range of conditions with the least amount of redundancy. It effectively provides every necessary component to hunt from hot to cold and dry to stormy. Each piece was created as a part of a team. Though strong individually, they are optimized when used together. The First Lite layering kit is the most effective in the world.

GO FARTHER, STAY LONGER.

FIRST LITE+ COCONA TECHNOLOGY WHAT IS COCONA TECHNOLOGY?

Patented technology that keeps microporous active particles functioning in fibers, fabrics, insulations and membrane laminates. These active particles are permanently embedded, will not wear or wash out, and are refreshed with normal laundering. 2012 FIRST LITE www.firstlite.com

06

HOW DO COCONA ACTIVE PARTICLES WORK? Cocona active particles work with your body to stay dry from the inside by actively moving moisture, accelerating evaporation and drying faster than any other product or system on the market today. Cocona active particles also attract odor molecules, and provide UVA and UVB protection. TECHNOLOGY - Cocona Technology Actively manages your comfort in all conditions. - Cocona is the BREATHABLE Waterproof system. - Uses ACTIVE PARTICLE TECHNOLOGY to pull perspiration from the body and actively pushes it to the outside of the garment. - Manages body signature by trapping odor in carbon components and neutralizing them in the fabric - ACTIVE PARTICLE TECHNOLOGY provides effective thermal regulation in tempera tures ranging from too hot to too cold. - First Lite is the first and only hunting brand to benefit from Cocona Technology in its products.

FIRST LITE FIRST IN MERINO WOOL CAMO 2012 FIRST LITE www.firstlite.com

Most of us who are old enough to have spent years in the outdoors before the advent of Merino wool underlayers associate ‘wool’ with that stinky, itchy, hand-knit sweater that weighed 20 lbs when wet and smelled like your 10 year old Golden Retriever. With the advent of Merino wool garments all of that has changed. Merino wool fibers are some of the finest found in nature and produce material so soft, durable and naturally odor resistant, they surpass synthetics in every way. Despite the advances of science and the creation of soft fleece and plush cynchilla, nothing beats the feel of Merino wool and unlike synthetics which stink when they’re dirty with sweat, wool doesn’t stink even after you’ve sweated in it for days. Not only does this mean it needs to be washed far less than your other garments, but it means not getting as easily “winded” by game when it matters most. You’ll be happy to know washing your wool is easy (when it needs it) and it can be dried in the dryer as well. Wearing our Merino wool underlayers will feel like you’re wearing your favorite cotton T-shirt.

08

HOW DOES IT KNOW? Sheep have evolved over hundreds of thousands of years and are able to live in the freezing high alpine slopes of Siberia as well as the blistering heat of the Australian outback, their wool coats both shelter them from the cold and protect them from the heat. Merino wool underlayers do the same against our skin. They regulate body heat much better than any synthetic fabric can and will keep you comfortable in a wider range of temperatures. When it is warm the wool transports moisture and warm air away from the skin and disperses it into the air, when it is cold the wool traps the warm air and keeps it close to the skin.

NO SMELL “They can hear you twice, see you once, but if they smell you they’re gone.” Every hunter knows the importance of minimizing human odor and there’s no fabric better at keeping B.O. to a minimum than wool. Wool absorbs 30% of its weight in moisture which then passes through the material and is released into the air instead of remaining on the skin. Transporting the moisture away from the skin and completely through the fabric is the main reason wool is so successful at controlling odor. Nylon absorbs only 4.5% and polyester .4%. With these synthetic fabrics moisture remains on the skin and the fabric leaving a feast for odor creating bacteria on the skins surface.

NO SHINE

TRADITIONAL WOOL

MERINO WOOL

NO SOUND Wool doesn’t flap in the wind, doesn’t shear when you walk or crackle when it’s cold. Wool in motion creates no sound.

SYNTHETIC FIBER

www.firstlite.com

Wool absorbs light while synthetics reflect it and create a UV shine. Even wool blends with as little as 10% nylon or other synthetic material such as silver reflect light making you more visible to your prey. 100% wool has no reflection.

MERINO WOOL TECHNOLOGY COMFORT

Merino wool fibers are some of the finest found in nature. It is the tiny diameter of the fibers that allows it to be worn directly next to your skin without any irritation or itch. Merino wool comes from the Merino sheep breed which is only found in specific natural environments. The wool growers in New Zealand and Australia have refined the wool sorting process to produce soft, durable wool for next to skin applications. The composition of wool makes it warm, water-repellent, odor-resistant, flame-retardant, durable, anti-static, and a UV protector. Wool is 90% keratin - a tough, insoluble, fibrous protein also found in hair, finger nails, horns, hooves and the outer layer of skin. A wool fiber can be bent and twisted more than 20,000 times before it will break. This elasticity as well as the microscopic diameter of each strand of wool creates a soft, comfortable, fabric that is perfect for hunters in all types of conditions.

ODOR CONTROL

There are a number of aspects of the physical and chemical structure of Australian Merino that make it naturally more resistant to odors than other textiles, especially synthetics.

2012 FIRST LITE www.firstlite.com

10

Moisture Transport - While sweat itself has no odor, if it remains on the skin in time bacteria develop and create unpleasant body odors. Merino reduces the opportunity for odors to generate because it is more efficient than other textiles at absorbing sweat and evaporating it into the air. No Microbial attraction - Studies have shown that bacteria are more attracted to the smooth, positively charged surface of a synthetic fiber than the scaly surface of a Merino fiber which carries no charge. Moisture Absorption - The Merino has a much greater capacity than other fibers to absorb moisture. In fact, it can absorb 35% of its own weight in liquid. The moisture is bound within the structure, and so is not available to microbes, which are unable to penetrate the scaly surface of the fiber. Glass Transition - In water and conditions of high humidity, Merino passes through what is termed a glass transition at which point it dramatically increases its rate of absorption and dispersion. Trapping Odors - The rate of diffusion of small and large molecules into the fiber increases and it is able to absorb odors faster. When the temperature drops, and the fiber once again falls below the glass transition, the odors are trapped within the structure even if the moisture evaporates. Later, during laundering, the garment again passes through the glass transition point and the odors are carried out of the structure by the water. Synthetics are not able to benefit from this same effect because they do not pass through glass transition during normal wear.

THERMAL REGULATION

Each wool fiber is covered with tiny scales like tiles or shingles on a roof that help shed water, rain or spills. But wool is full of contrasts and paradoxes that give it outstanding high performance for cold weather activities. The interior (called the cortex) of wool fiber can hold up to 30% of its weight in moisture without the wool fabric feeling damp or clammy, while the exterior (called the cuticle) is water repelling. Also, when moisture enters the wool fiber, energy is released in the form of heat which helps keep the outdoor enthusiast warm. The high performance characteristics of wool help keep the wearer warm in the winter and cool in the summer by naturally maintaining a comfortable balance in the wearer’s personal micro climate - that is the air between the skin and the layers of clothing. This means that in warm weather fine wool helps keep the wearer cool by transferring heat and body moisture away from the body for a naturally cooling effect.


SHOOTER’S CUT

2013 FIRST LITE

FRED EICHLER | EASTON BOWHUNTING TV

SIZE CHART

www.firstlite.com

Freedom of movement and total confidence in your gear means that when that shot-ofa-lifetime finally presents itself, you will succeed. That was the inspiration behind the new Shooters Cut fit design and construction. Shoulders and arms are sewn in a way that allows for maximum articulation without any binding to ensure that when drawing your bow, looking thru your scope or down the barrel of your shotgun it is a smooth and uninhibited motion. Look for base and mid layers with the Shooters Cut icon and know that these products are designed for the maximum freedom of movement while still maintaining that performance and comfort you’ve grown to love.

FIRST LITE LAYERS Our lightweight products are made from 100% ultrafine Merino wool. This is the finest, softest category of Merino wool that can be used for production. These products are designed to go next to your skin and be the ultimate in comfort and odor control. In our tops, this fabric would be equivalent the weight of a cotton Tshirt. But unlike cotton, our wool will wick moisture away from the skin and keep you comfortable even when wet. Next to skin comfort, extra warmth and odor control make our midweight fabrics extremely versatile. Our midweight fabrics are 100% superfine Merino wool constructed in a weight that is perfect for a first layer in moderate conditions or as a second layer for colder situations.

At over twice the weight of our lightweight fabric, the First Lite heavyweight Merino wool will keep you warm when the temps are low. Wool’s unique warmth to weight ratio means that styles made with this fabric will insulate and ensure comfort at a wide range of cooler temperatures without being bulky, noisy or cumbersome. 2012 FIRST LITE www.firstlite.com

All of our outer layers are built to withstand the harshest elements – cold, wind, rain, snow and sleet. All of our Outer Layers have a Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating to repel moisture and includes a breathable membrane, soft shell fleece interior or insulation. You can be assured that by choosing our Outer Layer products, you will be hunting comfortably in when the weather turns against you.


CAMO PATTERNS ASAT

Breaks up the hunter’s outline even at close range. This camouflage becomes even more effective with distance and can make the hunter totally disappear into his natural surroundings. Rather than a particular pattern of leaves, sticks or bark, ASAT uses large irregular curved shapes of overlapping colors which create voids and shadows that effectively make it appear as though nothing is there. ASAT is made up of shades of brown, tan and black. The brown and black colors represent the background and shadows found in all terrains and in all seasons. The tan color reflects the surrounding colors into which it is placed. This allows the hunter to ‘blend’ into his surroundings instead of sticking out from them.

REALTREE MAX-1®

Realtree Xtra uses natural elements like tree trunks, limbs and a variety of leaves, and arranges the elements over large open areas. Layering these elements at different depths within the pattern creates an amazing 3D effect and its this unique process that makes hunters absolutely disappear in nearly any hunting situation they find themselves. Season: Early Spring, Fall, Winter Application: Great for bow or gun hunting in hardwoods, pine or even on the ground floor.

MOSSY OAK BREAK-UP INFINITY®

The industry leader in camouflage design, is proud to introduce its newest pattern, Break-Up Infinity. Featuring unprecedented depth, unequalled detail and elements with remarkable contrast, Break-Up Infinity truly offers hunters another dimension in camo. Each element in Break-Up Infinity – leaves, limbs, acorns and branches – was selected to create unprecedented realism and contrast to break up a hunter’s silhouette. Then they were placed over multiple layers of actual images from the woods to create a multi-dimensional depth of field unlike any camouflage ever created.

BRIMMED BEANIE The Brimmed Beanie is constructed of two layers of Midweight SuperďŹ ne merino wool. The Brimmed Beanie is just long enough to cover your ears on those frigid mornings but can be rolled up as the day wears on and the temp goes up. We have sewn a small brim that is large enough to keep the sun out of your eyes or enable you to hide your eyes from game while small enough not interfere with your string on compound or traditional bows. TECHNOLOGY + 100% Superfine Merino wool + Midweight interlock fabric + Flexible brim + Machine washable and dryable COLORS

BEANIE With the popularity of our Brimmed Beanie, it was only natural to design a technical, ultra-comfortable beanie without the brim that you’ll want to wear all the way back to the bar. Our beanie is a single layer of 100% Merino wool with flat locked seams to ensure comfort and a snug fit. The beanie can be worn to complement our Wind River Balaclava or Neck Gaiter, providing added warmth and concealment. TECHNOLOGY + 100%Superfine Merino wool + Midweight interlock fabric + Machine washable and dryable COLORS

This could be the most comfortable, versatile and important addition this season. The Neck Gaiter can be worn around your neck for warmth and comfort and then easily pulled up over the back of your head and up over your nose for extreme cold and maximum concealment. The Neck Gaiter is also a great piece of gear for winter fishing, snowmobiling, skiing or snowboarding when the weather gets cold and nasty.
