Uncompahgre will be warmer for sure in my opinion. The Kelvin Lite would probably be enough for early september but man I've seen snow fall and temps drop even early september that makes it miserable. It can be 60 degrees and comfortable but once that wind comes up it can suck. I'd personally go with the first lite jacket. To add to it also, the uncompahgre is a synthetic blend instead of down. If it gets wet it will hold up heat retention much much better than the kelvin will. Depending where your hunting that may be a concern.
I was under the impression that the Kelvin and the new Kelvin Lite both used PrimaLoft. To the best of my knowledge isn’t PrimaLoft a full synthetic or is some of it blended?
Also I am assuming you wouldn’t recommend the FL Cirrus UL Puffy? Just noticed these are on sale. But I would rather have a little to much warmth than not enough when the wind kicks up and the temps drop.
Thanks for all your help. Puffys aren’t something us treestand guys really understand.
