Wanted: Kuiu Jacket Recommendations
- Thread starter Pard 007

I have the Chugach as a waterproof shell jacket and trousers set. The trousers ripped on their first outing on clear-fell! Not impressed! However, the jacket has faired much better and I use it to "waterproof" a Kuiu down jacket when its cold and wet. Its VERY packable and goes into my day stalking rig when the weather is unpredictable. Sort of given up on separate waterproof trousers as my Harkila Pro trousers do all that's required.
For a heavier weight version where I'm liable to be wearing the outer all day, I use a Sitka jacket over the down jacket that stands up to abuse much better. The Chugach is a very thin shell!

second vote for the chugach waterproof jacket.
The guide softshell with the waterproof panels is also very good and sufficient for anything but a constant downpour. Wouldn’t want to be out all day in it though in heavy rain.

Love my Chugach
Kuiu katana storm shell waterproof jacket lightweight and really tough got the bottoms too not let me down yet highly recommend
Yukon is so good. Pit zips for heading up hill. Wear with a base layer underneath. Pack a super lightweight mid layer for when you stop a while. Elbows in puddles shooting prone, no drama. Dry as dry can be.
