So I'm 5'10" and 170-175, normally a large works in everything. Would I want a XL or ? I hat baggy fit but also hate sleeves to short. Pretty sure the pants will work out ok, shirts are my concern.

I just ordered XL in Jacket, shirt, and pants. I'm 6'2 223. They give you 60days to send it back. Just need room for a base layer and I'm good to go! Don't want baggy as I'm bow hunting.

I've got a bunch of this stuff and I love it! I"m 5'11" and 230 so it was all XXL in the tops for me. KUIU fits their gear to be bigger as you go out from the body to accomodate layering. I have no problem fitting my superdown hoodie under my guide jacket which has the guide vest and two merino shirts for layers. I started with XL stuff and it was all too snug. The pants run very true to size as I ordered both pairs of my Attack Pants in 34 and they fit perfectly! I've no issues with KUIU and would recommend it to any and all interested! The only thing I've found is it can be a bit chilly when it gets cold. Weight vs. Warmth but that doesn't sound like and issue here.

You'll be happy. The attack pants are pretty light weight may want to consider those. I would think maybe just a bit more versatile and could take you well through September. Just a thought.

I'm placing an order in the next few days, going with the attack pant and the 125 SS/LS each. Thanks for all the info guys.

Good choice! I just got my attack pants a month or so ago and cannot wait to try them out this summer, I was really impressed by them. About to order some Ultra Merino 125 tops for archery in Aug, I have a 230 but I fear it may be too hot. We are hunting the same deer unit , if you went with Vias we will look like twins up there this summer.

This is a little off topic from clothing, but here it is. I am looking for a dry bag that is "just the right size". Who has used the Kuiu roll top dry bags, and are you happy with them?

I haven't used em but I see that one in the clearance section and I am planning to pick it up on my next order if it's still there

We had a couple in this past winter when Brandon reviewed their tent and sleeping bag. Quality construction and product, we did not torture test them in a rain storm or anything like that though.

Scott, how did the sleeping bag fare? I have been looking into it. Can you find the thread as i cant seem to find the reviews on it?

Thanks,

Sweet, I'm going with Vias then! Haha, that might not be good, you don't wanna get blamed for what I do!
