    Where to find "old school" pullover jerseys?

    Anybody know where to find the old style pullover v-neck camo jerseys? Tim Schloss made them years ago and I've searched high and low to no avail. I could go back to the standard BDU buttondown, but I much prefer the pullovers...

        yea, I guess I need to clarify. Didn't realise there was an "old skool" brand.

        Old School meaning a style originating from paintball years past - not a brand name. And yes, in camo - any kind (realtree, tiger, etc.) made from heavy cotton material. Sandana also made them, but now appear to only make headbands, doo rags, etc.

        All I can find are the ubiquitous slick colored jerseys (dye, sp, jt, etc.).

          Walmart sell the hunting stuff ie Real Tree etc and should have a pullover version available. If they don't have it then try an outdoors pursuits store only trouble is due to hunting being rather large in the states you will pay a lot of money for the top

              Used to be a company named renegade that sold them...I have a tiger stripe set a while ago. I know they still made them as of last year, as I saw them in a local shop. Good luck

                Renegade was a Smart-Parts brand, and the jerseys are no longer listed on their website. MarkM has the best suggestion - try WalMart, or a hunting gear store.

                  I have to agree with some of the other suggestions...

                  Just go to your local Wal-Mart of a specialty store like a Gander Moutain ...

                  I pick up the long sleeve Camo Turtle necks ... I like having the extra neck protection ... they typicall run $15.00-$25.00 based on the name brand and quality. And you can find them in the off hunting season often 50% off...

                  They come in a good varity of patterns and colors to match the areas you play in. Be it more green, brown, heavy or light woods... They last a good couple seasons as long as you know not to put them in the dryer as they typically fade very easily if you do. Just wash um and hang um up after each play day and they work very well...

                    Yea, I've looked at wally world, bass pro shops, etc. and have not found exactly what i'm looking for. Most of those are actual heavy shirts and not quite the pullover style I'm searching for.

                    Here is a pic of the exact style:


                    (in fact, I'll bet that is one of Tim Schloss's products)

                    I've used these all through the 90s and for those of you who have(had) them, you know how much more comfortable these are over standard BDUs.

                    Today, all jerseys are thin, nylon-esque mesh material and while these are fine in most places, when you head off to the woods to play, these brightly colored jerseys are useless. Plus they get ruined in heavy brush very quickly.

                    Its a shame Pursuit Products went OOB, as they made one heckuva jersey. Maybe too well - they lasted forever (well maybe 8 years of heavy use) and you usually only needed to buy one or two.

                      Here is just one quick link to a light weight long or short sleeve shirt that might fit your description... and they have many other options on the website... I have used their stuff for years and they are one of the top notch mail order services in the sporting world...

                        Here's something like the old Renegades

                        How about this one? I've never heard of Core before.

                          the CORE stuff sounds close, and for 20 bucks, I'd give it a try, but I've only seen small & medium size. I need XL. It looks like all the core stuff is clearance wherever I've linked to.

                          SP Renegades versions are also no longer made, near as I can tell.

                            Ok, quick search.... These folks have the Renegades in woodland. I also remembered that Hogan's Alley still had Renegades (Pre SP) too. Hope that helps.

                              WooHoo! There's still hope! I had given up on finding a camo pullover top a year ago.
