Reviews

Good light jacket. Mildly water

"Good light jacket. Mildly water resistant. It’s fit is a touch smaller than typical XL jackets but fits good and can act as a mid layer under a larger jacket. Decent for 50 degree weather but I got cold when it was lightly raining and mid 40s. Materiel is really good quality. Took a star because this jacket should have pit zips for the hike in. It’s too warm to wear walking in and pit zips would help."

— Ron W. (4/5)

Very, VERY tight sleeves

"I LOVE this fleece! It's absolutely exceptional - like everything KUIU makes. My only complaint - and it's significant - is the sleeves. You can't wear this fleece and wear a watch. You can't wear this fleece and wear a KIA bracelet. If you typically wear anything on your wrists, this fleece isn't for you. That's super disappointing, because its day-to-day use is extremely limited. Going hunting? It's PERFECT as a layer. Going to your kid's hockey game? You'll have to choose something else. KUIU's asking you to spend a significant amount of money for a fleece you can't wear much."

— Stephen J. (3/5)

AVENGER

"Iv’e been wearing Blacktail hunting here in Washington because it’s been warm and no rain. I like the way it cuts the wind and not hot when strolling around."
