    First Lite outerwear is in stock and shipping

    I have the llano and chama in medium and the puffy in large. Interestingly, I can sandwich the puffy under the Chama with ease and still have great mobility. That will come in handy in mid to late October when our northern MN temps drop, it's dead calm and I'm sitting in a stand. With these...
