Reviews

New favorite

"Very warm and quiet the pockets and zippers are just right great design and quality probably my favorite coat now. My personal experience with figuring out sizing I wear xxl in all the t-shirts and base layer stuff but I also wear them stand alone and like a little loose fit I ordered coat in xxl way to big exchanged for xl fits perfect if I was not layering a large might even be ok with just a t-shirt I'm not a big reviewer guy but this coat is worth my time"

Really like the coat, quiet

"Really like the coat, quiet and warm. Normally wear a large but went with a XL for extra layering in cold to frigid weather. Glad I did. Only slight knock is the sleeve cuffs are pretty tight around wrists. This seems to be a common trait as my other KUIU coat is the same. Not a problem if your mid-layers have thumb holes. Definitely a a good purchase."

— MICHAEL S. (5/5)

Size Matters

"Super light, warm, and breathable, but will take up some room in your pack, so have it available. This is a "put on just before you climb into your stand" item. You can't wear it to walk in, or you'll be sorry you did!!! I originally got a 2XL, but I exchanged it for a roomier in the shoulders 3XL so I could draw my bow easier and hold at full draw longer. The tradeoff with that is that the 3XL allows small pockets of cold air that the 2XL wouldn't have allowed. I use the Kenai Vest as a sub-layer, so the larger size was the right choice for me. Please weigh all that before you buy, but like all great KUIU gear, it can be exchanged at no extra charge within 30 days."

Great mid-season jacket

"Impressed, as usual. This is a great quality jacket that has the versatility with layering to blend through multiple temp ranges. Fit is perfect for me. I’m 6’2” and 215 lbs. I can’t wait to get this in the field next week."

— James H. (5/5)

Love this new camo, fits

"Love this new camo, fits incredible, comfortable, quiet and warm! My only complaint, not even really a complaint. I was kind of sad I didn’t get at least one Kuiu sticker to put on the meat freezer with my order. I spent a fair amount on the new camo and thought maybe they’d toss one or two in. But, just a petty wish! Incredible gear! Super happy with it."

— Matthew D. (5/5)

Great for Archery

"I picked up this jacket for late season archery. I use a thumb button and really like this jacket for how quiet it is. It's still bulky enough that I have to unzip the jacket to shoot properly, but it fits nice. It will require additional layers on those really cold hunts for someone up north, but I'm happy with how comfortable and quiet it is."

— Darrell B. (5/5)

Great item

"Very well made and great quality jacket with great camo in veros for hardwoods. Warm, very quiet soft fleece, true size but has room for base and mid layer. Easy remove hood. Great zippers that are quiet. Very happy with it."

— sam n. (5/5)

Great jacket and pants

"Ordered proximity jacket and pants. I’m 6’1” 225lb and went off what the Kuiu sizing charts on the website said. Both fit great with enough room to layer but are not bulky and I can shoot my bow easily. They are very quiet when moving around and are very warm. I am happy with this purchase and should have them for a long time."

— Ben f. (5/5)

Great Peice

"I absolutely love Kuiu gear, have a lot of peices of geer. This coat seems great. I wore it with the 290 fleece under it for a morning bow hunt where the low was prob. 28 or so. My core stayed warm. Sitting dead still for 3+ hrs and staying warm isn't an easy task in temps in the 20's. Very quiet and easy to move. If you plan on layering a Kuiu jacket, i would always size up. What i hate about kuiu and there great gear, they wont let someone review there gear after using it for any amount of time. Outside of this email they send you, you cant review it. So they ask you to review stuff usually with very little or no use at all. That is a majorly biased system! Let a guy go back after a yr or two and review stuff. it would make the reviews carry a lot more weight. Thats my rant"

The KUIU Proximity Hooded Insulated Jacket exceeded my expectations. It’s warm, lightweight, comfortable, and performs exceptionally well in cold weather. The fit is great, the hood is very functional, and the overall build quality is top-notch. Definitely one of the best outdoor jackets I’ve owned.

Q&A

How well does it do with water? Is using it for duck hunting as well an option or is it gonna get soaked? Also wondering how puffy overall it is
It has a fleece outer fabric and is not the best option for duck hunting. It is insulated, but not overly puffy.
I’m going to purchase this jacket. My height is 5’10”-5’-11” Weight is around 200lbs. I don’t plan on wearing a puffy coat under this. Just a fleece sweater or hoodie. What size is best for me?
You will likely be between a Large and XL, but we have included a link to our size guide below so that you can make a few measurements and ensure you order the proper size! https://www.kuiu.com/pages/sizing-chart
