Hey MM’ers I hope you are all doing well and are as excited for this fall's hunts as I am. I have been a long time member of MM and was a very active on the Forums when Brian aka Founder fired up the site many years ago. I confess I spent way too much time on the site getting my muley fix, but also met some pretty cool people along the way. Like many of you, I’m obsessed with hunting giant muleys and do the bulk of my hunting on public land. I have been pretty absent from posting in recent years due to life, family and the building of a company. Most of you know me by my MM handle cabinfever, however my real life name....haha.... is Mike Nielson. I am the founder of SKRE gear. Maybe you have seen some of our Ad’s on MM. My intention in writing this post is not to bash competitors, pound my own chest, sell gear, or get in a pissing match with hunters who wear another brand of gear. I acknowledge that hunters have a lot of great options when it comes to high quality hunting gear. As a lifetime gear nut and a connoisseur of quality hunting gear, I recognized that I could do some things better. Not just build better gear that is rugged with excellent performance, but resurrect the golden rule of treating customers as I would want to be treated. I’m talking about a no nonsense , no hassle warranty in the rare event of an issue. The truth is, corporate America has lost their collective minds and we all know it. Quality products with top notch customer service are beginning to fade into the Sunset. SKRE was built on a foundation of crafting quality gear with zero compromise in quality and performance, with a no nonsense warranty and exceptional customer service. Those that know me well, and have hunted with me will attest that my gear is nothing but the best. When my life is on the line, and success is the prize, I never compromise the quality of the gear I take into the field. There is too much at stake! As an example of our quality, we use super fine merino wool in all our merino wool base layers which results in an exceptional next to skin layer that checks all the boxes when it comes to performance and comfort. Our merino wool is not heavily watered down with synthetics like so many others who offer merino. Our soft shell fabrics are not crafted from branded fabrics, but custom proprietary fabrics that have been mountain tested and arctic approved over the last 7 years. Our gear is not designed by hikers, it's designed by hunters who understand the demand we place on our gear, and the features we have come to love and expect. We are currently in our seventh year of business. I acknowledge that we haven't done everything right all the time. We have made a few mistakes along the way, mostly in those earlier years. With that said, we believe our gear will run with the best brands in the industry. Our reviews stand as a testament to our quality gear and our commitment to take care of customers. If you are considering some new gear, give SKRE gear a try. We are confident you will be impressed. If you ever have any questions, or just want to talk hunting, don’t hesitate to reach out
Kindest regards & best wishes this hunting season
