My goal is to be able to head into the forest for a week max by myself or with a buddy bow hunting. Kuiu is preferable for me, I enjoy their products and I'm looking for zip off base layers where it makes sense. I'm 5'11 (probably more like 10 now ) and I weight 223 lbs. I've linked the historic weather in Vermont for reference.
What I was thinking
Base Layer:
Bottom: Ultra Merino 145 Zip Off
Top: Ultra Merino 125 LS Crew
Mid Layer:
Bottom: Peleton 97 Zip Off
Top: Peleton 240 Full Zip (No Hood)
Insulating:
I have a black 800fp down puffy thats light and compresses. Would be for at camp at night.
Main:
Bottom: Attack Pants
Top: No clue. Would like something for heavy rain as it's prone to do in October.
- I plan on doing a fair bit of climbing and hiking, lots of movement when required.
- I'm trying to stay as light as I can.
- I sweat like a beast of burden.
- The base layers I'm used to are the military issued silkies and waffle layers. I hate them and overheat often.
- I will go with the attack pant unless someone has any decent objections.
