Reviews

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)

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 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)

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.

Great Gear

"Used the Proximity jacket and pants this weekend during an upstate NY whitetail hunt. Temperatures this weekend dipped into the low 30s. Those temps are a sweet spot for this gear. Performed really well. Size, fit, and warmth--checks all the boxes!"

— Ryan D. (5/5)

Great NW PA whitetail setup

"I really like this set for whitetail hunting NW Pennsylvania. The new Veros color is great for hunting the timber. I am usually in between a medium and large and definitely needed the large in the coat. My waist is usually in between 32 and 34 and definitely needed the 34. I also like how the pants are offered in a short inseam length. Overall I’m really happy with this whitetail setup!"

— Chase S. (5/5)

KUIU Proximity Jacket Veros (L)

"Purchased Kuiu Proximity Jacket Veros size large. Used the size chart and the jacket fits great! Got it all ready to go for when the fall colors and snow show here in WI. Feels comfortable, can fit normal layers underneath. Got the pants too...very comfortable and quite as well. Looks like a great set!!"

— Greg F. (5/5)

Great mid weight jacket

"I needed a coat for temps 25 and above. I have the heavy coat and bibs for those very cold hunts. This jacket is the perfect upgrade for those temps 25 plus Very comfortable, lots of convenient pockets"

— Bob T. (5/5)

Proximity Jacket and Pants Insulated

"The look and feel of the jacket and pants is mind blowing. This is by far the best clothing for hunting I’ve had ever. I’ve now worn it in 30 degree weather in Iowa and it is very warm no problem going colder. Highly recommend!"

— Gregory H. (5/5)

Q&A

Which size should I buy? For example, i have a peleton 240 in size L, which fits me well. Should I order a size L for this jacket as well? I’m 186 in length and 90kg heavy, athletic build ( 6.1ft, 200lbs)
Size Large would be a great choice!
Does this jacket do okay in rain and snow?
It is DWR treated so it will resist light rain and snow well, but will not replace true rain gear if the rain/ snow is coming down hard
Can I buy the hood for this jacket? I was given this as a gift but the hood was not with it.
We unfortunately do not stock extra hoods at this time, but would be happy to pass this along the team so that they are aware there is interest!
I purchased a size xl proximity jacket and feel like it's a bit too big for me. I'm 5'11" 200 and it's just a bit baggy in the belly area and a bit long. I feel like it will get in the way unless I have 2 sweatshirts underneath. if I wash with hot water and dry with heat will it shrink at all or do I need to exchange for a large?
I would recommend purchasing the Large to compare the two side by side and return whichever does not fit best within our 60 day return window. If the Large is too small then you could try shrinking the XL, but I would not recommend that as the first option.
What would be a good mid layer to wear under this, that could also be used as an outer layer in early to mid season northeast tree stand hunting?
We recommend either the Peloton 240 Full Zip or the StrongFleece Hybrid 260 Full Zip Hoodie
I am 1.72 cm tall and weigh 60 kg. The circumference of my chest is around 90 cm with the T-shirt. I want to wear the Kuiu Proximity Jacket as an outer layer. What size do I need?
You'll want to order size S based on your measurements
