Quick answer
Choose the PACKOUT Tee if you want a tribute to the grind of elk hunting and a reminder of your resilience. Choose the DEV8 T-Shirt if you want a chance to win a complete elk hunting kit and support the ELK101 series.
Different purposes behind the shirts
The PACKOUT Tee is designed as a wearable story—a tribute to the physical and mental challenges of elk hunting. It's for those who want a shirt that reflects their journey and the quiet satisfaction of pushing through pain.
The DEV8 T-Shirt, on the other hand, is a limited edition collaboration with ELK101. Buying it enters you into a giveaway for Corey Jacobsen's complete elk hunting kit worth $10,000. It's a shirt for fans of the series and those who want a chance at a major gear upgrade.
Value and exclusivity
Both shirts are priced similarly—the PACKOUT Tee at $19.20 (regularly $30.00) and the DEV8 T-Shirt at $18.00 (regularly $30.00). The DEV8 offers a tangible bonus: each shirt equals one entry into the giveaway, and each bugle tube ordered gives two entries. The PACKOUT Tee offers a more personal, symbolic value tied to the hunting experience.
