Dunno that it qualifies as “cheap” but these are legit. Weighs less than an ounce more than my stone glacier Grumman but has pit zips, welded baffle construction, and is about half the price of the Grumman or the Kuiu pro. I got mine for $172 a couple of months ago and used it for 2nd rifle in CO with no complaints.1) Outdoor Vitals Nova Pro jacket. I did a lot of looking for a good puffy jacket, and it's on the heavier side, but I like all the features it has. Thumb holes, pit zippers, 800FP down, and I think it's got the same fill weight (or higher) than some of the more expensive brands. I haven't really gotten to test it in the cold (I'm from Texas), but I should get a chance this week. They're on sale now ($200), and I think I got mine when they were doing an even better sale a few months ago.
Do you have a pic or link for an example of these?3) US GI issues Gore-tex. I'm in the Marines, and I know how much we abuse ours and it still keeps me dry. I bought a set of fire-resistant multi-cam (it blends in well where I hunt) for around $100 on ebay. They're a little heavy, but I don't have to worry about where I take them. I'm sure if you get the regular ones, they'd be even cheaper. I also buy the summer-weight multicam/OCP for bow season because it's lightweight, has a TON of pockets and you can get them everywhere cheaply
This is just an example. You can find the older style (tri color or acu) for much cheaper than the newer versions, and there's always the woodlands or dessert patterns in the Marine corps. I had to shop on eBay for a while to get the deal I got, but you might be able to find them locally at a mil surplus store cheaper.Do you have a pic or link for an example of these?

I want to update my list: forget fox river wicking socks, these merino socks are it. They are awesome at getting water off my feet. I've used them in dress shoes (Johnston and Murphy and Cole Hann), leather boots, rubber boots, and on bare feet in a cold house this AM. They work, period. I generally have trouble with my feet sweating in any shoes, except flip flops (even then will sweat on hot days), my feet are dry after hours of working at the hunting club in boots on 90 degree days, or at church and out out to eat afterwards. I wish they made some no-show socks for tennis shoes.
Just be wary of non-new-issue milsurp goretex or rain gear....

Counterfeiters have families too.One thing to note about MANY of the suggestions in this thread - if you come across an item on Amazon from some weird brand of random letters, with a product that looks very similar to something name brand but for half the price, it is probably counterfeit or defect. There is a lot of "3rd shift" manufacturing going on overseas, where they make a big name brand thing from 4am-10pm and then they send the quality guys and the main workers home but keep running the line all night with lower quality materials and no QC. Or, a "bad batch" of something winds up on Amazon/eBay. By buying these products, you are contributing to bad foreign actors (sometimes blatantly criminal) undermining US companies.
Proceed with caution.
These are good knives but check out the Mundial knives they're about 2/3 the price and seem to be about equal quality.Victorinox curved, semi flex, boning knife.
Understood , but that is a 2 edge sword ! Many are price point knives and many of the low Price point knives are coming in from China . I had purchased a few , some ok and others bad Q.C. Personally I do not support counterfeiters of any ilk .Counterfeiters have families too.
My uncle used to run a sprinkler at night when he wanted to catch some.I'm so glad the original owner of my house seeded the yard with crawlers 40 years ago. I could sell them I have so many here.

I just purchased a Mora & it's rock solid and easy to get a decent edge on it !These are great suggestions! The mora caught my attention. They are bomb proof and I’ve gutted a few deer with them. A mora and olight flashlight make a killer inexpensive gift for Christmas!
Yes , I recycle about 100 per month . They do come in handy for a few purposes ..Came up with another one while camping last weekend - the 99¢ camp cup, also known as the plastic water bottle. Has a lid to shake up those drink powders. Collapses smaller than a tin cup. Weighs less than an ounce. Available at any gas station.
