First Lite, a brand that aims to provide the best possible apparel for hunters who appreciate the difference, is obsessed with building functional products for the tree stand, the back forty, and expeditions in the Brooks Range. As sportsmen and women, we ensure the future of our shared passion through funding and hands-on participation in the conservation of wildlife and protection of our collective access to the wild places these creatures inhabit.

We are hunters first, business people second. This isn't to say we don't take our company seriously. Merino Wool, a fabric that breathes better than anything on the market and also provides unparalleled protection from the elements, is a key material in our top-selling products.

In order to be an authentic hunting lifestyle brand, it is critical that our employees get out and hunt, most averaging 40 days a year. Nestled in the Wood River Valley of Central Idaho, First Lite strives to make the best apparel in the hunting industry with innovative technologies for specific hunting pursuits in any weather.

From proprietary camouflaged rain jackets & pants to merino wool baselayers, First Lite is fully stocked with all the hunting apparel necessary to stay in the game all year long. Specializing in Merino wool and 37.5 Technology supercharged fabrics, First Lite's hunting apparel excels at natural thermal regulation and moisture management to keep you comfortable and scent-free.

Both our passion and business model are based on the protection of wildlife in wild places. Supporting groups that protect wildlife, wild places and hunter heritage is a critical part of our conservation efforts. Since 2018, we've been working to rehabilitate winter range in Southern Idaho degraded by fire and invasive cheatgrass, planting more than 50,000 native shrub seedlings through our Brush for Bucks Initiative. Our employees also collect seed for the nurseries that grow the sage and bitterbrush seedlings used in this project, which benefit wintering mule deer, elk, pronghorn & sage grouse.
