Cool. What hunts have you successfully used them on?
Many Florida hog hunts deep into the swamps lots of 'devils walking cane' thorn bushes. They get some picks in them but are hard to tear. They dry very fast also.
Mostly open hard woods here in arkansas, easy terrain.
They do seem to soak up water and dry slower when they've been worn a lot. I think the threads/material ? fluff out a bit and cause that.
Bought 3 more pairs, 2 in green, 1 in light cream beige one size up from my size, I'll use them in the winter for snow camo.

I read made in China on this site, and researched it online. ? . It's posted on the internet it's got to be true.

Where is KUIU Made 2023
October 27, 2022 / Outdoor
While hunting, you have to face challenging situations. To face these challenging situations, KUIU aims to provide the most comfortable and stylish hunting apparel.

KUIU hunting gear has been tested around the world in all types of terrain and weather conditions. As a fit, comfortable, and sustained hunting gear, you may wish to know, “Where is KUIU made?”

Where is KUIU manufactured in 2023:
All KUIU products are made in China. In 2012, KUIU transferred its manufacturing facilities from Canada to China. Though KUIU is an American brand, all of its hunting apparel is manufactured in China today.

In 2011, Jason Hairston founded KUIU finding the necessity of comfortable hunting gear for hunters. Initially, he began making hunting apparel in Canada.

KUIU began mass production in 2017 when the San Francisco-based Main Post Partners invested $50 million.

Today, the KUIU manufacturer makes all KUIU hunting gear in China.

Have you ever tried Prana Zion pants? Wondering if you have how they compare

IMHO Prana Zion = business casual. See lots of guys on Rokslide making reccomendations or asking about them.

Well, I was mistaken. I just went and started looking through my stuff, some bought as recently as a few weeks ago and some several years old, and 3 out of the 17 Kuiu articles I checked said China on the tag. My apologies. The vast majority was made in Vietnam, with the odd Cambodia, Columbia, Sri Lanka, and even USA thrown in there. The most recent stuff was all made in Vietnam.

What's your thoughts on the Kutana?

Holds up better than the Chugach set in the alders/brush. On my third year on my set without issue. The Chugach was lighter and didn’t hold up near as well….I have 4-5 holes in my set from basic rut hikes.

I have one of their Guide jackets. The only thing I don't like is the arms are tight. I don't consider myself to have "pythons" for arms, but the jacket is a little tight from the bicep through the forearms. Anyone else experience this with their jackets?

They definitely have an "Athletic" fit. For jackets it is wise to up size.

I have three pieces of KUIU I really like and never go on a hunt without they are:

Kenai hooded jacket

Peloton 240 hooded jacket

Kenai Beanie

Other than that I haven’t been impressed

IMHO Prana Zion = business casual. See lots of guys on Rokslide making reccomendations or asking about them.

I have 4 or 5 pair of zions, I really like them for hunts that require a lot of hiking or my pack hunts . I see a lot of people recommending attack pants but have not pulled the trigger on a pair yet. Just curious to hear peoples opinions who have tried both

That's exactly why I thought the arms would be a little more spacious in the bicep/forearm area. I bought XL. I usually am right between L and XL, mainly because I have broad shoulders.

I have a couple pair of the Zions and recently adopted some Kuiu attack pants. I’d say comfort is about a wash. The attack pants are a lot warmer than the Pranas IMO. I kinda prefer the Pranas with the built in “belt” over having to wear a belt with the Kuiu. I have noticed the Pranas pick up a bunch more cockaburs, etc than the Kuiu.
