Kuiu Super Down LT ?

[FLHunter87]

I just ordered this from the recent sale. My brother has this and seemed great and really light. He uses this as an outer layer and I guess some people do the same thing. I know if down is constricted and compacted, typically it loses its purpose from other discussions and reading. I am somewhat in between size so I sized up and most likely could use it either way as a mid or outer. When wearing as an outer I will be stationary, treestand or blind. Definitely won't be walking through anything when wearing them, especially as an outer. What is the consensus as an outer or mid?

I usually put mine on when glassing or sitting. Very rarely moving around. I love mine.

So you use it as an outer and it's works just as it should then?

I wear mine as an outer. I use it for around town stuff. I have taken it hunting on one hunt and wore it as an outer there too. Mostly open country and stationary glassing. I did not bust brush. It did fine as an outer. I will say on a day there was 40mph winds I paired it as a mid layer with a Chugach rain jacket and that was choice. The outer layer with the Chugach was great at cutting the wind and then the down LT kept things toasty. I was amazed at how well that worked. It's a great light weight piece.
