How does it compare to the furnace?
I have a furnace ¼ zip, but I'm looking to add to my collection and I'm torn between the navigator or a furnace hoody.

I have not worn the furnace, however, I think the navigator would be the better option for a more active type of hunt. The furnace sounds like it might be the warmer option.

Do you think this would be a warm enough to be used as a midlayer for a late season rifle hunt?

Yes, I think it would work well for that.

Thanks! We’re looking at Montana this November so I’m shopping around for warmer layers. Saw this at my local Scheels and wasn’t sure what to make of it warmth wise. It seemed so lightweight but saw a lot of people are saying how warm it is.
