Brooks Range jacket from Barney's

[FRANKBUCK]

This subject has probably already been covered, but I have not been able to find a thread on it so I decided to start my own. I am looking for feedback from individuals that have this jacket and can attest to it's performance...either good or bad. Thank you in advance!

high quality...got my wife one....waterproof & warm....obviously not an archery quite piece, but wind rain & cold you cant go wrong

I’m curious how it would compare to the kuiu katana gale force jacket

havent seen a gale force jacket, but i have a sitka kelvin windstopper, the barneys has more loft, has abrasion patches on shoulders & under arms, removable insulated hood, & Event which seems better than goretex in things ive had....its also heavier than the kelvin & id expect it....the type jacket you want when its cold & shitty, or wished you had gotten

I would think that if you had a light puffer under the Brooks, you'd be very warm when glassing. I have a coat from Kryptyk that is pretty warm but it is heavy and bulky and takes up a lot of room in a pack when not in use.
