[QUOTE="motoxno53, post: 807580, member: 33062"] I am a Sitka fan BUT!!!! now I am SOLD on KUIU.... check it out.... ps it is cheaper... I will say that yes Sitka and Kuiu are more expensive. I cant tell you if it lasts longer as my oldest set of Kuiu is only two years old and Sitka is about 4 years but it is at worst very close to if not more durable then the Predator clothing i used to use. The main things you will LOVE and what makes them stand out are: 1) The wind protection 2) The moisture wicking ability... Not getting sweat soaked like cotton clothing would while hiking is priceless. 3) They dry VERY quickly 4) The Kuiu stuff has a water repellent that is amazing if you get caught in rain or wet snow. 5) The Fit and articulation of Kuiu is second to none(even Sitka) It really is amazing how much energy it actually saves you by not hindering your movement. I can honestly tell you it is noticeable if your hiking a lot in the high country. 5) The vents along your thighs of the pants are a great feature to stay cool Anyway I hope this helps...
