Both Kuiu and Sitka would be solid choices. I just bought a Kuiu DCS Guide jacket. It looks to be a winner, but I haven’t put it to work yet. I own 3 pairs of Sitka Timberline pants that I have tortured beyond belief and they still have several years left in them. Good Stuff!
Both Kuiu and Sitka run one full size small. Depending on what you have for your layering, mixed brands, maybe... Keeping in mind that Kuiu/Sitka are designed as a system. If you aren’t buying their layering offerings, you’ll want to take into consideration the bulkiness of your clothing and maybe go 2 sizes bigger in a jacket. I’m 5’10 225 with merino layering and I’m an 2XL.
You should PM Jordan Smith. He knows Kuiu and likely what other mfg’s you should be looking at for your hunt.
