Question, Are the shoulders and forearms insulated? Also, you having a large, can you put a keni under it with no issues. I'm a big guy, I have a 53in chest and get everything in a 3x top. My strong fleece fits well except the arms. My arms are big so it's snug, especially the forearms. All my pelotons fit well, and the keni is perfect with layers under it, it is also a 3x. I ordered an axis in 3x and couldn't put my keni on under it. Arms, shoulders, and chest is too small amd fits snug with a t shirt. I sent it back yesterday because I just couldn't see keeping it when I was counting on using it as my outer protection layer. This looks okay, but probably would need a Yukon to go over it. Late season in western pa is nuts. 5f in the morning ends up at 35f high with possible showers turning to snow showers and back 20 by dark. Just wild swings in weather half of the time.
I have the elements jacket and it is very comfy but it's not as warm as they advertise. I get cold it unless I layer very well underneath. I am not sure I am sold on the hybrids for warmth but they are very nice and well made.
The pockets aren't stitched and the glue falls apart quickly, I've had two and both were the same. I did however get a full refund from Kuiu so no bad feelings.
I just ordered the new all black version and cannot wait to see how it fares here in the PNW. Will be wearing it for mainly the not so rainy days and to keep the clear and cold days at bay.
Thanks man! We know its a pretty basic video but we were getting a lot of questions on it and just wanted to put out our first impressions. Hope it helps! We will have a more in depth video up after we put it to the test.
@@ilgoutdoors Looking forward to it! I just got the Down Pro and of course this gets released just after my purchase. So naturally I have to get this one as well lol.
