Sitka and Kuiu are good stuff. I own a lot of the whitetail and big game Sitka line and kuius big game line. It’s gear that keeps you alive when the conditions are tough. It’s gear that you can put on and forget about. Tough material, quick drying, great mobility, and there is a piece for dang near every situation. Kuiu seems to be a little better made, Sitka has better sizing and more options. Favorite items in Sitka: timberline pant, dew point rain gear, Kelvin WS down jacket. Kuiu: axis pant, kenia jacket, superdown pro jacket.

Kuiu has been great for me. The tiburon pants are awesome early season pants. The insulation layers like the Kenai Is plenty warm for western states. And the Gila hoodie is an awesome piece for keeping you cool and out of the sun. Their merino wool is also great. The zip off bottoms are a game changer.

 

Kuiu is geared towards lightweight backcountry hunting. Sitka is a bit heavier and offers a wider range of products for different hunts. I made the switch from Kuiu to Sitka and have been super happy

 

I found all my Sitka gear to be extremely comfortable. I figured it made sense to splurge a bit for clothing I’ll be in multiple times a week for 14+ hours sometimes. It has held up well durability wise. I’ve also found the subalpine camo pattern to work really well in the areas I hunt. With this being said Sitka is the only high end hunting clothing I’ve had so I don’t have comparison. There’s head quarters is also in Bozeman MT my home state so I have some allegiance there. I also always waited for a sale to pick anything up. As I just can’t justify the retail prices no matter how good the product is.

 

I have a few Sitka products and love them They hold us well, especially the pants. They are an expensive purchase, but as long as you get them on a discount, are worth the price.

 

I have a mix of Sitka and Kuiu and Walmart. I use the Wrangler outdoor pants ($27) as my warm weather to early October pants. Held up just as good as any other brand. Base layers are sitka and Kuiu as well as outer layers. Mid layers are anything thats warm and can be layered over. Just my 2 cents

 

I use KUIU currently. Big fan of a lot of their pieces and the sales are always solid. Sitka's niche gear for waterfowl and whitetail seems to be pretty top notch. Kryptek offers some great pieces for the sales they have as well.

 

Yeah like most brands like that in every sport whether its titleist in golf or Sitka in hunting there are other options that are just as good for less.

 

Depends on what your use case is IMO. I think bowhunting whitetails sitka has the best overall gear, especially when needing something both warm and quiet. I think FL excels a little more in the western space. Both are quality. For whitetail I'm really liking the asio gear as well.
