Reviews

Not quiet but I love the fit

"I wouldn't bow hunt with it inside of 40yd but if you're 100yd+, the sound won't be an issue. I have bigger shoulders and there's plenty of room for layering. I could probably size down to a large if my shoulders and back were just a bit more narrow. The jacket has an athletic cut to it with sinches at the waist and two on the hood (nice touch on the hood). Will likely buy in more colors"

— RUSSELL B. (5/5)

Great Jacket

"The jacket is comfortable and warm on the crisp early mornings and provides a perfect outer layer when glassing on cold days. Combined with Kuiu's layering system it is a great addition to my pack since it is packable and lightweight. Only drawback is tgat I am always a borderline size guy and it runs a touch long in the arms and its bulk for my size but I don't think a medium would've worked for me."

So good I got it twice

"It’s rare for me to find a piece of gear worth writing a review about, and it’s even rarer for me to replace a piece with the exact same one when the time comes. I originally got my first axis thermal hybrid as a gift from my wife for Christmas a few years ago. At that time, I was a hair “porkier” you could say. I’ve since lost some weight and have now slipped down into a large from an xl. All my other “too big” Kuiu gear has been swapped for other pieces from Kuiu, but none of them for the exact same piece. None of them, except the axis thermal hybrid. I’ve tried for YEARS to find a soft shell-esque jacket worth packing and using. This summer as I began inventorying things to replace, I realized that this was the ONLY piece that had been on every single hunting, scouting, and fishing trip in the last few years. That’s not to say my other gear doesn’t get used, but certain pieces get cycled in and out depending on conditions and time of year. But this one goes everywhere. It works as a standalone over just a base layer, or as the final piece stacked on top of others when it’s snowy and cold. It blocks the wind incredibly well, it’s durable, and it packs down well in my pack when I need it to. If a guy can only own one piece of gear from Kuiu, I’ll make it easy: make it the Axis Thermal Hybrid."

Fits great, looks great but the real test comes in hunting season.

"Fits great, looks great, but the real test comes in hunting season. I can't say yet as its summer and I haven't been in the elements I purchased it for this year yet."

— Dustin L. (5/5)

Little small

"I don’t own anything XL in kuiu but I probably could with this jacket. Haven’t got to use it as intended but can see a little struggle with layering. Quality looks great"

Q&A

Does it hold up to brushing against trees bushes etc
Yes it is a durable jacket, but we recommend using caution around bushes with thorns
How would this jacket pair with one of the rain coats like the Yukon or chugach TR?
You would likely need to upsize the rain jacket if you planned to pair them together
Hi! Going to be in Houston,TX for the SCI Convention Jan 20-24. Will you guys have a table there with garments to try on...interested in Axis Thermal Hybrid. thanks
We won't have a booth, but our Ultralight Tour will be at the show and will have gear available to try on.
Is this jacket quiet?
It is as quiet as can be expected for a soft shell, but isn't as quiet as something like the Kenai.
is the non-camo down tube part the same material as the element Jacket?
Yes
