Reviews

Very, VERY tight sleeves

"I LOVE this fleece! It's absolutely exceptional - like everything KUIU makes. My only complaint - and it's significant - is the sleeves. You can't wear this fleece and wear a watch. You can't wear this fleece and wear a KIA bracelet. If you typically wear anything on your wrists, this fleece isn't for you. That's super disappointing, because its day-to-day use is extremely limited. Going hunting? It's PERFECT as a layer. Going to your kid's hockey game? You'll have to choose something else. KUIU's asking you to spend a significant amount of money for a fleece you can't wear much."
