Reviews

Well Designed. Cold Weather Freedom of Movement

"I am in Florida, so all of my hunting gear is very lightweight. I was heading down to Argentina for a winter dove hunt with my son and realized we needed some colder weather gear. Bought this jacket as well as some of the other layers from Cou, which we already know and love. This jacket performed flawlessly. It kept us warm. But more importantly, we were able to shoot with three layers on completely unencumbered with tremendous freedom of motion. This is extremely well designed gear. I couldn’t recommend it enough."

— Brian H. (5/5)

Looking forward to still hunting the Adirondacks this year!

"This is the final piece of my KUIU hunting clothing. This jacket will be great as my outer layer for long cold November through early December still hunting Whitetail Deer in the Adirondacks of New York State. The fit is great over my base and mid layers."

— Timothy B. (5/5)

Upgraded for Colorado

"I finally pulled the trigger on a new Axis Hybrid jacket I'd been by hunting in a Cabelas mt50 for a decade. Obviously the new coat was more money but the fit and performance are light years superior. Also picked up a couple of hooded merino blend base layers to replace my older base layers. The Kuiu base feel as good or better than any of my quality ski base layers. Wish they had the thumb holes but wtvr. My buddy insisted that I wear some of his gear last season after I got mine wet ---I was sold after 1 day. I ordered XL base---my size and a 2X jacket extra room and it seems good but I'm tall and lean. If I was thicker then I would up size 1 notch."

— Richard S. (5/5)

Just Perfect!

"As a professional hunter, I mainly use the KUIU Axis Hybrid Hooded Jacket in Ash in the mid-mountain regions. It fits perfectly, offers excellent mobility, and is ideal for active days in variable mountain conditions. The hybrid design is spot-on — lightweight, breathable, and not overly insulating, which makes it perfect for layering. The strategic waterproof paneling in the hood, shoulders, and arms keeps me dry where it matters most. The Ash color looks sharp and blends well in the terrain. Top quality from KUIU — one of my favorite jackets. Highly recommended!"

The perfect Jacket for changeable Scottish weather.

"Perfect for hunting in Scotland where it can rain without warning. The extra waterproof paneling on the Axis keeps you dry where it matters. Brilliant jacket!"

— Mark H. (5/5)

2nd Hybrid

"This is my second Axis Hybrid I bought. The 1st was an XL. It fit perfectly but was pretty snug when I wore layers under it. The hybrid is an awesome outer layer. It stops the wind, and keeps you dry."

— William H. (5/5)

Great cover and look overall

"Bought the Apex set for my boyfriend and he loves it. A bit more of an athletic fit, has some stretch for under layers but if you like to layer up thick go up a size. Kuiu always has great quality."

— Nicole S. (5/5)

High quality and great customer service

"Originally ordered large coat and vest but had to return them for XL. XL seems great but hunting season is 3 months out so haven’t worn the stuff much. Quality seems excellent in comparison to others."

— Harold P. (5/5)

Waiting to try it out

"I usually wear XL but ordered an XXL to make sure there is room for a couple of layers underneath if needed. has a good feel to it. Can't wait to try it out in field next month!"

— Jari S. (5/5)

Great Jacket

"Looking for a Jacket to wear to the stand in cold to fridged weather, this is perfect, keep me warm, but not to hot. It is snug, but fits over base and mid layers perfect all 3 size L."

— Ian Y. (5/5)
