I ordered this suit around 3 weeks ago and have had a little time to test it out and see how it compares to other products I own.
Ordering:
This suit was quite an experience trying to order. The first attempt did not get processed and I was on a deadline to receive this suit. Thankfully, this site has one of the most AMAZING customer services on the web. Over the course of 3 days and 5 phone calls --TO ME-- (trying to work out the order for me) they were able to pull my suit off the line, send it to another address where I would be, and had it to me 3 days later!
10/5
Suit:
First off, the "Desert" color depicted in the product image is misleading... make sure to look at the other colors in the sideshow to really determine what you want. I fell into that hole, and thankfully was only using this as a base for my own project.
But, as stated in a prior comment the jute was VERY bright and shiny and desperately needs to be broken in. I HIGHLY recommend finding a swampy-muddy, hole and roll around until the suit is a damp dirty-mess, let it dry, then bang out the clumps!
I have also sewn on black hair bands to the suit to hold natural foliage
4/5
Durability:
I have already had the drawstring for the hood come out (use a safety-pin to put it back in as if you were threading a needle)
also one of the boot-straps at the bottom has already come apart and is needing repair. The "jute" comes off like a shedding animal, and I developed a tail of strings and leaves off both legs after 2 uses forcing me to trim it! The suit as a whole though, seems fairly sturdy and well built.
3/5
I have used and own other suits such as the "4-piece stealth suit" and a homemade ghillie. Home-made are by far a higher quality, and this beats the stealth suit 2x over. So as far as I can determine, this is a happy medium. If you are going to use it for turkey hunting, photography, airsoft, or paintball, go head, this will serve you well.

Shipping was ontime, even I was charged for priority and it was shipped via ground. However, time frame was the same.
Service was good.
Suit itself, maybe it is good for average consumer. I am in profesional industry(not discloused), product quality-could be better, of you know, when it is better.
I don't want anyone to think product is bad, if you play paintball it is good. It is just not up to my standards. I have seen and have better product.

Snipers spend a lot of time laying or crawling on the ground. That is why the front of the jacket and pants sniper ghillie suits are left bare of ghillie suit material. The sniper ghillie suit jacket and pants is a lightweight version of the BDU Sniper ghillie suit. The BDU ghillie suit is built on a heavy duty battle dress uniform while the light duty sniper ghillie suit has heavy duty cordura sewn to the front of the suit only. This design reduces the weight of the suit allowing for better cooling and swifter movement.
