Huge difference Kutana vs guide. I have both the guide is now demoted to my range jacket. The Kutana is archery quiet. More durable. Blocks the wind way better. Is lighter. Packs/compresses better into the pack. More room in the forearms for layering and the collar isn’t as tight around the neck allowing for all layers to be zipped closed without choking a guy outI do, but like the poster above I'm trying to figure out the difference. From the questions asked and answered on the kuiu site, your jacket is quieter but the guide has more stretch. Can you let me know what you don't like about this one, and what it is that you want in the guide jacket? I'm considering trading you.
