The Guide PRO features the latest advancements in soft-shell technology. Guide PRO has superior wind resistance, stretch, and durability, all at a reduced weight. In addition, the overall fit is enhanced articulation, and added length in the hem for layering. From the smallest to the largest sizes, you’ll find the new Guide PRO Series has an optimal fit.

Designed for mountain hunting, the Guide PRO is ideal for colder conditions when heavily insulated layers and 100% waterproof protection are not necessary. Leveraging K-DWR® durable water repellency, combined with Primeflex® quick-drying fabric, it withstands light rain and snow.

The Guide PRO is constructed with a durable nylon face fabric combined with an ultra-soft and comfortable micro-fleece interior. The layers are laminated with a proprietary wind-resistant bonding technique. While the all-new material stands exceptionally durable in brush-choked terrain, it’s remarkably quiet for archery hunting.

With the mountain hunter in mind, we optimized and fine-tuned every feature, including dual chest pockets with an added accessory lanyard connection point. In addition, an adjustable hem cinch blocks out wind, and raised hand pockets stay accessible while wearing a pack.

This soft-shell vest is designed to layer over a base layer and a light mid-layer fleece, all in the same size. This jacket is close fitting. Only upsize if you measure between sizes, prefer a loose fit, or to wear additional insulated layers under the jacket.

Layering Example – Cold Conditions:
*For an individual measuring size: XL

Base Layer: Peloton 118 LS Crew-T – XL
Mid-Layer- Fleece: Peloton 97 Fleece Zip-T – XL
Outer Layer- Soft Shell: Guide PRO Vest – XL

Guide PRO Designer's Perspective

Listen in as KUIU’s Matt Snyder and Kevin Wilkey discuss the development and testing that went into the all-new Guide PRO Series of soft-shell hunting clothes for men and women. They talk about their personal experiences with the gear and how it’s the leading edge in soft-shell performance.

K-DWR® (KUIU DURABLE WATER RESISTANT)

Once a fabric is soaked, insulation and breathability are compromised. KUIU Durable Water Repellent (K-DWR) treatments bead and resist water, keeping it from penetrating the outer layer. This increased breathability and performance allow waterproof membranes to evaporate your sweat while blocking out moisture. K-DWR also enhances dry-time and protects from light rain or dew-soaked vegetation on non-waterproof products.

Primeflex By Toray

Fabrics that get their stretch from elastane, spandex, and Lycra® materials are heavy, slow to dry, and don’t last. Primeflex fabrics solve the problem of restrictive clothing by utilizing a patented spiral yarn that allows the fabric to stretch and recover without using water-absorbing spandex. Primeflex fabrics are quick dry and offer durability, comfort, and stretch without the weight.
