Anything specific you are looking for? That would make it easier to offer suggestions.

Well dressed regards, :D

womens clothes

I also am having a difficult time finding womens gear for training and hunting. There seems to be a severe lack in this area. I have looked online and the selection is pittiful. With so many more women joining the ranks of retreiver enthusiasts in hunt tests etc, you would think more sports / hunting clothing lines would wise up and ask our opinion's!
I propose that any woman who wants to change things write me...there is power in numbers and although I am in the intermediate testing with my first dog (those darn blinds)I plan on taking Ana all the way and would like to take her to the SRS someday...( I may also be delusional), so...I would like not to roll up my pants( which are mens) and find something that fits my curves....which are not the same as my husbands! I know my dog`would appreciate it as well as the people who stand behind me!

Reminds me of shopping for duck hunting grear in our local sporting store Sheels, which today has ANYTHING but in those days not so much.

I was giving the clerk guff about sizes being L to XXXL mens. After I got the done ranting I "looked" at him, mmmmmmmmm
He was 5' feet 130 pounds........ so I guess it isn't only us women with size issues.

:oops:

Most times small men' work out. Sportmen's Warehouse has some womens grear.

BTY I use a "skirt" the field, not so much stress on my back and shoulders. Clips around my waist with several large pockets deep enough for birds, water, shells and the granola bar or 2. And yes it does make me look fat
:wink:

That site looks pretty good but again there is not a whole lot of variety. Their prices aren’t bad. I would like to find marsh grass camo, not the normal bow hunting type. They actually have waders that I think might fit me (5’9” with a 6-1/2 shoe size)! It really is a pain finding stuff and forget about finding anything on sale. Better than what I have seen at the Sporting goods places around here lately that offer more sleepwear and underwear in camo than anything else for women. I usually look to men’s small or youths sizes.

I haven't tried ordering clothing on-line (order other dog training supplies that way), but will say that the sporting good stores here don't seem to carry anything made for women. I've had good luck finding pants & shirts that fit in the boy's department. They are cut smaller through the shoulders & waist & you aren't drowning in them.

I get most of my white training clothes from Goodwill. White button downs for $3 - can't beat it.

White jackets (of all weights) come from wherever I can find them!

No camo in training regards,

You looked pretty good in it too! :wink: (Couldn't share that until she was no longer "under judgement"!) Good seeing you this weekend; and no, I'm not referring to your handler's garb!!
