Reviews

Very versitile

"I have used this jacket in some pretty tough climate changes along the border of Idaho and Montana. This jacket has really done a great job when combined with the right base layers. I absolutely love the fit and feel! I was first a bit hesitant about it being too lightweight for the periods of glassing after walking long distances during wild fall temperature changes. It has not let me down thus far from 50 degree mornings to 25 degree evenings with decent winds."

— Michael C. (5/5)

Fairly expensive fleece/jacket

"Fairly expensive fleece/jacket. I anticipated the water resistance to withstand a slight drizzle. I haven’t sat/hunted in it yet (august in MI), but walking around my property, it was soaked with in 20 minutes. Dries quick - I’ll give it that. The pockets and zippers are smooth and well placed. Armpit zippers are convenient. I doubt there’s much insulation in it. My anticipation was to utilize it as a shell over my down jacket in colder weather, but unless there’s no rain in the forecast, no bueno. I may return it…"

Great soft shell. I bought

"Great soft shell. I bought a large and I’m 6’2” 185lbs. There’s perfect amount of room to layer a thinner down puffy underneath. Arm length is good for my long arms."

— Kristian L. (5/5)

The best of the best!

"This is my 2nd guide pro jacket that I’ve purchased. The quality of the fabric, seams, stitching and Velcro is of the highest quality. All the pockets are thought out nicely and sized well. The pit vents are a huge plus and directly air out your arms while layered under. I took this jacket on a hike up Mt. Whitney and it was solid. Blocked the wind, beaded snow and rain and kept me warm. Sometimes too warm! I could go to a single layer in 25-38 degrees no problem while hiking. Arms had plenty of room to move and not tight in the pits or underarms. Easy to layer under. It seems to run a bit big for a medium for me; a small is too tight in the arms and hard to layer with. The hood is large and stays out of the way until needed well. Big enough to fit a hat under and not be too tight or too wide. Highly recommend! It had zero damage from carrying a 50L backpack and abuse from granite rocks at high altitude."

— Christopher S. (5/5)

Expectations

"I do love this jacket, I didn’t understand it wasn’t waterproof though. I was walking through the woods and got a lot wetter than I expected. After rereading on the product I realize it was my fault and need to return it and get something else. It was however extremely comfortable, blocked wind fairly well, was very quiet against brush. And worked as advertised"

— Benjamin W. (4/5)

Best wedding gift ever

"I have one and have used it around the world so I gave it to a friend for his wedding gift. I thought his wife would love to know that he will be warm as dry wherever he goes"

— Clark W. (5/5)

Safety First!

"Same great jacket with upland safety colors makes for the perfect outer layer for chasing ringnecks and other upland birds through the fall and winter. Can use a pro down Lt vest or jacket, other layers underneath for added warmth deep into the season."

— Dana W. (5/5)

I give everything I have

"I give everything I have bought and received a five star. I love my packs and I love my jackets and pants. Have nothing to say bad about anything. It’s all great product. Quality is excellent."

— Charles Z. (5/5)

Light & Warm

"The jacket meets my expectations from Kuiu. Quality material, assembly and zippers! The best outdoor clothing."

— Rob W. (5/5)

Go to jacket for active hunts.

"This jacket covers all the check marks. The hood sinches down tight or can cover with soft and warm inside fleece. It sheds light rain with ease. Plenty of pockets for essentials, pit zips do their job. If not needed can be stuffed easily into your pack. If it works in Alaska it should work anywhere."

— Eugene S. (5/5)

Q&A

I will be whitetail hunting with a bow in Georgia. I’m trying to see if this would be the best option for a jacket that is versatile whether I’m sitting in a stand or spot and stalk hunting and is it quiet enough to bow hunt with
The Guide Pro Hooded Jacket is a great all around jacket, but for close range whitetails you might want to consider something a little quieter like our Proximity Hooded Insulated Jacket or the Kenai Hooded Jacket
