- review on high end rain gear. Stone Glacier M5, Kuiu Yukon, Sitka Thunderhead.
least amount of noise goes to Sitka thunderhead. perfect gear for archery.
Durable and access goes to Kuiu Yukon. great for heavy rain and bushwacking.
weight savings goes to Stone Glacier M5, excellent lightweight rain gear

Hello Anthony
thank you for the feed back. I’ll try post some new content soon
Simple and straight to the point. I’m definitely considering the m5 or the kuiu
I find the M5’s accepts DWR treatment a little better than kuiu Yukon. Maybe due to the kuiu being older and well used.
The velcro zipper is unique, at the same time could be a weak point in long term usage.
The arms are long for glassing, some people don’t like it when not glassing.
Thanks for the info. Nice video
Great review man thank you!
Thanks for watching Cody
great review, I'm pretty set on Sitka gear but I'm gonna give the Stone Glacier rain gear a try! thanks
I like the solid colours. It’s comfortable to wear in the off season, hiking camping scouting.
Let me know how it works for you.

Thank you I appreciate it man.
Have you tried the kuiu katana rain set ? I’m going back and forth between that and the Yukon. Would love to see a review of that. Great review thanks a lot 👍🇨🇦
Hey Dave
I only have experience with the katana gaiters. As for the rain gear looks like a good option. Only down side to the Yukon is it’s heavy and bulky, compared to other options.
Happy holidays
@Jesse Stahl thanks so much I’m going to go with the Kutana storm shell set up👍
Great review. Wonder what your thoughts are on the new first lite omen vs the Yukon.
Hey thanks for watching. I don’t have experience with first lite rain gear. I have seen some reviews on them.
Best to do some Research on what materials they are using and see if the design would work for you.
Great video man! Which one you recommend of the jackets for an all-season hunting jacket, the Kuiu or M5? Which one is the noisiest? And do you feel like the M5 is more yellow in person than it "should be"? It looks a bit too yellow to me, but I dont love the grey version either.
All around hunting jacket I would go with the kuiu Yukon. It’s a little loud but I like the pockets.
The colour of the M5 is a bit off.
As for long term review I think the M5 takes treatment of DWR a little better due to fabric.
I have an Arc’teryx leaf alpha jacket I’m working on some content on that.
Thanks for your time
@@island-gear-review2359 Thanks for answering! Just sold my Arcteryx LEAF Alpha Gen 1 jacket actually, and trying to find a good replacement. Not been able to figure out what the best replacement is yet.
I am tempted to buy a new LEAF Alpha LT, but it wont be in stock until autumn, and that is too long to wait.
Do you have any experience with the Kuiu Yukon vs Kutana by the way?
Arc’teryx makes good gear. I haven’t used the Kutana yet I also bought it on sale a few weeks ago.
I’m looking to get the m5 gear, however my only experience with SG is with the Havilland pants, which are extremely long. I had to cut them and have them seamed.
Are the M5 as long as the sitka rain pants? I have the sitka so I can use them as comparison.
I’m 5’10” inseam 30 and a large fit perfect for length. Just enough room for insulation underneath. The cut is similar to Sitka length but I find Sitka to be slim in the waist.
As you know the arm length are long for glassing.
Why do you prefer the Yukon gaiters to the kutana?
I find the Yukon fits better for me personally. Also I prefer the buckle and metal lace hook instead of the plastic one on katana
@@island-gear-review2359 thanks! I just got a pair of the kutana and I can barely get them over my boot!
Did you find the m5 to be pretty durable?
I find them durable. Very light weight and packs down small. Only down side is the slim cut in pants, Waist area.
@@island-gear-review2359 thanks!!
Great review also!
Awesome thanks for watching, happy hunting
Sitka sizes for models not hunters tight in arms and waist if you go by your normal size always have to go up one size
Yeah I agree. I had a jet-stream jacket in XL fit perfect.
@@island-gear-review2359 👊🏻
Yep. Sitka’s sizing is crazy.
You definitely have to try on before buying. Kuiu is the same way. Had to return some items when I started buying gear.
@@fritzd2116 it’s like for male runway models not hunters 😁
You didn't give a price run down, that would be helpful
Well if your interested a little research would help. The cheapest is the rubber rain gear. Most others are roughly same price for setup
