Reviews

Get it!

"You hardly notice you’re wearing such a warm jacket because it’s incredibly comfortable. The drawcords at the waist and hem allow you to adjust the fit, keeping the cold out when needed or giving you more freedom of movement while on the go. The fleece lining around the collar feels great, and the extended hood provides extra protection from raindrops and the elements. The outer material also seems very resistant to abrasion. I’m genuinely impressed. This is exactly the jacket I’ve been looking for for a long time!"

— Aaron D. (5/5)

Great jscjet

"Bought this just before going on elk hunt in Oregon. Kept the wind out and enjoyed the warmth. Of course the right layering is a must. No rain or snow, so didn’t get to test the waterproof factor"

— Steven B. (5/5)

I went hunting and was

"I went hunting and was more prepared than ever with the Kutana Gale Force. We dealt with a major early season storm that was a ton of cold rain and about 3 in of snow that we hiked around in all day. I was the only one that returned to camp after a 12 hour day Dry and warm. Awesome gear"

— Chris H. (5/5)

Love It So Far!

"I have the coat and it fits well (5'9", 250, 53" around chest and hips, 50 around waist). I can comfortably layer Kuiu mid-layer gear. The quality of the garment seems to be absolutely first rate. That said, I've not tested it in cold or weather yet. So, at this preliminary position, everything I can rate I rate top-notch, but haven't yet tested it against the weather I bought it for."

— Fred A. (5/5)

"Fits perfect . Can’t wait to try it out on my Arizona Elk hunt this December."

— Steven P. (5/5)

Great All Weather Jacket

"I’ve been using the jacket on a hunt in the Canadian arctic circle the past week with temps down in the 20s and 30s, with some strong winds. I wore it over a guide jacket, Peloton 97 hoodie, and Tiburon Zip-T and have been quite comfortable. we also have experienced some wet days and it has kept me dry."

— Richard M. (5/5)

Kutana Gale Force

"Outstanding jacket. Performed well on recent cold weather mule deer hunt. Needed to size up to do the laying that I wanted."

— Jeffrey N. (5/5)

Q&A

Is this jacket quiet enough for the tree stand?
You could use this in a tree stand, but it wouldn't be our first recommendation. The link below highlights our Proximity and Encounter lines, which were developed for tree stand hunting: https://www.kuiu.com/collections/whitetail-deer-hunting-gear-list
Is the Kutana gale force coat to heavy for alot of walking in Montana, we usually hike 15 miles a day, just don't want something too heavy
This is an insulated hard shell jacket, but it shouldn't be too heavy for hiking long distances.
