Best Use: Cold Conditions

Built as a tough, all-purpose outer-layer hunting jacket for cool-to-cold conditions. The robust K-DWR® treated Primeflex softshell resists wind and light rain or snow—yet offers more breathability than waterproof hard shells for better core temperature management.

While slightly heavier than hard-shell rain gear, soft shells are quieter, more durable, and remain comfortable in a wider range of conditions.

The Guide DCS features an athletic cut, allowing enough room underneath for base layer and a light mid-layer fleece, while a rain jacket in the same size will also fit over the top when needed.

This soft-shell jacket 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 DCS Jacket – XL

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 as much as 10% 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.
