A question for you guys that have some experience with kuiu pants. I'm thinking of getting some for winter hunting here in Minnesota to keep warm and dry, so the question is I wear about 29 to 30 inch waist pants, will 32 kuiu work for me? I hear they run a little small? Thanks a lot for any advice!!

I have the same question. I have a pair of attacks and want to know if they run the same size or slightly larger for layering. Basically, 34 in attacks fit the same as a 34 guide pant?

mn I did order a size up in my attacks and feel like I should have went ahead and ordered my normal pant size. They fit great everywhere except the waist is a bit big. FYI I wear a 34 in jeans and ordered a 36 because I was told to order a size up. I'll be purchasing a second pair at a 34, but still not sure on the guide pant.

Sounds like I might need 30 then, the website starts at 34, so the smaller sizes must be out of stock or something. Have to watch eBay.

Look again... the sizes available right now are 34 36 40 30 (in Vias). The sale starts tomorrow and they may be out of stock pretty quick???
Thanks! Must have missed it because it's not in order. Do you know what the length is? They don't give an option?

So it says only 2 in stock, probably no chance at getting them tomorrow. Might have to just order them now. Is that list accurate, does anyone know??

All i see is that it is in stock whether on the shopping page, cart, or wish list. I'm thinking just order them now then no worries.

Good luck MN. Better be quick on the clicking! I already have stuff saved in my cart, but it looks like I should go back and change my guide pants to a 34 rather than 36.

Well, nevermind... they took off a ton of stuff from the website before the sale. No size 34 in most stuff, was going to buy a pack and most of them you can only buy the bag and the ability to even select the full kit is gone. If it isn't, the item says out of stock. Man, I was ready to spend some money on some gear, but they screwed themselves out of a good chunk of change from me. Hopefully will still end up with guide pants...

Can anyone who has these tell me if what the outer shell is like? It isn't that fuzzy fleece that everything sticks too?

The shelves are already empty. If you start checking inventory, they're tapped out. Hardly anything left to sell at 30% off. I talked to their customer service today. The girls told me that right before a big sale they get really busy, especially I ally before christmas, buyers want to ensure they get the presents they wanted before christmas. It's a sales strategy to sell a bunch of stuff at the higher price, then unload older inventory for a sale price.

I am a big fan of Kuiu gear, but their business model sucks. Often out of inventory, and then back ordered items take forever to receive. I bought the guide pants. They are bombproof, I hunted in heavy brush, and juniper. Stalking animals on my knees for hours, the pants are great. Never got any burrs.

I want to get another pair in the other camo pattern.

But might have to wait a few months until stuff comes back in stock.lol

Got some of what I wanted and saved a good chunk. Can't complain too much other than I wanted so spend a little more on some other things they took off the website a couple days ago. Slim pickins, but I'll take sale items any way I can get them

Apparently nobody wanted what I wanted. Ordered a couple layering shirts and some shell pants and jacket. Even had the right sizes. Anxious to get it and see what it looks like.
