Anybody have any insight if these will be updated for 2023? They’re on sale now, been wanting a pair but would rather wait if an updated model is coming out. Maybe a solid finally?

not sure if you are looking for general feedback but like the pants but I find the window between when I wear summer weight pants to when I want something warmer than the apex is fairly narrow. As such, mine haven’t seen a lot of use. I wore the hoody a couple times and sold it. The elbow pads were meh for me and when I wore a pack or chest harness, I couldn’t use the pocket. Not bad kit but just not what I had hoped for using them as I do.

thanks good to know. I like the ascent pant but was leaning towards the apex for something a little more quiet.
 
The Equinox Guard pant is very similar to the Apex. I have them both and have to look at the label to see which is which.
 
I have no inside information but generally when Sitka heavily discounts a line it means there is an update coming.

You won’t find a quieter set of clothing for bow hunting than the Apex system. I wear the hoodie more than any other piece of gear that I own. I love the pants, but do find them a little warm for earlier season hunts that are high exertion. With a set of good base layer bottoms I’ve worn them as low as 10-15 degrees.

I removed the knee and elbow pads from mine for general use, though the knee pads are a game changer for hunts where you might be crawling or kneeling a lot during a stalk.

They’re coming with some hip zips and supposedly some solid offerings!
 
Looks like they will not be updating the timberline pants, they just added a new color. No hip vents :(
