Reviews

Not just for hunting.

"Kuiu clothing is also very good for winter flyfishing. Dual use equals bigger bang for the buck. Great value and flexibility to adjust to different conditions. Flyfishing clothing gets lesser in quality and increase in pricing every year. When fishing clothing has to be replaced, I use Kuiu hunting clothing instead. Just bought another pair of boot foot waders. I now have a pair of HD flex zip waders for winter fishing."

Love the product. Only thing

"Love the product. Only thing is that it can’t be machine dried, and I found out the hard way. Peeled a lot after one washing. I’m not a guy that wants to hang my clothes up to dry all the time. But otherwise, if that doesn’t bother you. It’s a great product. I wear it all the time."

— Josh H. (4/5)

Wirklich toll.

"Das Merino-Shirt ist wirklich super, der Kragen schließen angenehm hoch und ist nicht zu eng. Das Tragegefühl ist wirklich sehr gut, die Merinowolle sorgt für ein passendes Klima und leitet Schweiß und Feuchtigkeit gut ab. Mit der passenden Hose zusammen die perfekte Kombination für Ansitz und Pirsch."

— Jan O. (5/5)

Happy camper with the new shirt

"I love the qualities of Merino wool. This is a great shirt, it is a little lighter than I anticipated but after hunting in it for a couple of days, it’s a perfect layer"

— Robert S. (5/5)

stayed comfortable.

"The shirt worked great on a recent pheasant hunt in North Dakota with temperatures in the low 30’s and 15-20 mph winds. I wore the shirt as a mid layer with a Kuiu ULTRA Merino 120 LT SS Crew T-shirt as the base layer. I covered both layers with a cotton upland shirt and sweatshirt for early mornings. I peeled the sweatshirt off around 10:30 am when temps reached the low-mid 40’s. The temperature reached mid 50’s in the afternoon. I was comfortable all day. I was very impressed with the ability to keep me warm when it was cool and keep me cool when it was warm."

— Ron N. (5/5)

Nice base layer. Perfect fit

"Nice base layer. Perfect fit for layering. Kept the draft off the neck while sitting. Half zipper allowed me to moderate temperature while during hikes."

— Tom E. (5/5)

Perfection.

"I have been hunting with ULTRA Merino 145 shirts and Zip-T for 3 years now. It has become the only mid layer I will use. I also use it as a top layer for 60-75 degree weather. I am blessed to wear it as one of the changes allowing me to only need to pack 2-3 other changes. It is easy to wash by hand an dries quickly. I currently have two weeks worth of color variations to wear. As long as they don’t change it for the worse I will keep on using this product."

— Shawn S. (5/5)

Not what I thought.

"I’m looking for warm base layers being that I live in Minnesota and hunt upper Midwest into January. I thought I read up on it through your descriptions, but I miss the boat on this one. And you’re clothes are way too expensive to not be useful or to be extremely good"

— Mike D. (2/5)

The best one.

"Perfect sensations , perfect value for money. I live in France and I’d rather pay €20 for shipping. We have some great stuff in Europe too, but certainly not at this price point. If you want rugged merino—plus great camo and ventilation—there’s nothing better."

— Florian E. (5/5)

Meh.

"This is the first time out of many purchases I've I wasn't real happy. This shirt is thin and is made of a stretchy material that isn't flattering in my opinion it fit a little on the smaller side. I will say ot is well made structure wise andthe color is true to the ad. Everything else I've bought from them has been excellent. But this one only gets 3 stars."
