I'm 5'10 190 athletic build, I typically wear a large. I was looking to layer my existing kuiu ultra kenai insulated jacket with this piece. Do you suggest I upsize to an xl? Thanks.
Do you have the Sitka Jetstream jacket too? Which one do you prefer? I do elk and whitetail hunting in southwest Montana (Bitterroot range). I’m looking for the lightest, quietest jacket that is still water and wind resistant.
hey great video. i have the jetstreem jacket but feel like it’s noisy should i return and get stratus jacket? i need one good outer layer. underneath i can use what ever but outside whats better between both stratus or jetstreem?
What about water? My gear now will keep me dry for about 4 hours with moderate rain fall. I’m in oregon, most of the time the weather doesn’t get below 30* for elk, but it is a good 90% chance that it will rain for deer and elk season
Have you looked into the jetstream. It's meant to be a layer piece and it will keep you dry. It also has pit zips, which can be nice if you want to air out. www.blackovis.com/sitka-jetstream-jacket
The vest is going to excel as a layering piece, especially when it not quite cold enough to need a full jacket. Vest allows you to add warmth only on you core, when that is all that is needed. Thank you for the feedback!
Kendall often uses a merino bottom and if it's really cold you can always throw a Midi bottom under or a pair of sweats! Under the jacket you can use a Stratus vest and a Midi Jacket!
I hunt down to 10° in the Stratus. I wear Merino tops and bottoms Core light weight long sleeve Fanatic hoody Equinox midi pants Celsius Midi jacket or Equinox hoodie Stratus bibs Status jacket Merino skully Stratus beenie Once it gets into the single digits I will just wear my merino tops and bottoms with Fanatic hoody Fanatic bibs and jacket and beenie.
I’m trying to tell if it would pick up burrs and stuff or not mostly planning on bow hunting Michigan with it but was going to take it out west as well
I might be a year late, but if you’re still wondering I bought the 2020 model jacket and bibs and it definitely picks up burs but the majority of them you can brush off with your hand

You're kind of inbetween. I'm sure either one would work, it just comes down to how you like the fit. Either on the tighter side or the looser side.
Thanks, I definitely prefer things to be a bit more form fitting. Appreciate your suggestion.

The Stratus will be more quiet!

I have looked into it, it looks and sounds great but it doesn’t have pants
I’m 6’5 210 and I would be wearing this as an outer shell over layers out I probably need the xl?
Kendall is 6'5" and 200 lbs. He could wear a large but sizes up to an XL for extra length and room for layering.
@@BlackOvis he literally says he’s wearing a large
Thoughts on beat uses for the stratus vest? Was hoping you would have hit on the vest in the video as well

What temperature would you say the stratus would work in.
Everyone is gonna be a little different. On the safe side, around freezing would work.
For late season. What do you wear under it say if I had the top and bottom stratus get up, and wanted to continue to use it. Base layer wise?

Medium or large?
We can't tell you for sure, if you would like extra length we would recommend the large, plus it is a layering piece so bigger might not hurt.

You do have potential to pick up burrs but they wouldn't be extremely hard to pic out!
