In order to eliminate gauge variant degrees of freedom we study the way to introduce gauge invariant fields in pure non-Abelian Yang-Mills theory. Our approach is based on the use of the gauge-invariant but path-dependent variables formalism. It is shown that for a special class of paths these fields coincide with the usual ones in some definite gauges. The interquark potential is discussed by exploiting the rich structure of the gluonic cloud or dressing around static fermions.
