Can’t comment on the kifaru but if wanting best warmth in cold temps with kuiu down look at the guide pro down. This is much warmer than the superdown, more durable but does make some slight noise and would be best under another jacket.
Check out outdoor research on Sierra trading Post.Kuiu super down pro is way over priced. 5.0 oz of 850 down for $400
Trewgear is the same thing with 8.8 oz of 850 super down for $369
Sitka Kelvin down jacket is 8.8 oz blended fill for $250 on sale
buy the Sitka

Like Ross and others said, the Kuiu superdown is ok down to high teens or low twenties sitting still. Add a hard shell that cuts the wind and I could run it a little cooler but if it's that cold I'm grabbing the Kifaru. The super down is really light though and takes up hardly any room in the pack, but I think it's the noisiest puffy I own. The Kifaru LPP is my go to anymore, since it doubles as a piece of survival gear with the synthetic insulation, hood, and front pouch. It's already been said but I'll say it again, imagine wearing a sleeping bag on your top half and that's the Kifaru LPP. I wish they would make a pair of pants and booties to complete the ensemble for late season.
Are people referring to the Kuiu Ultra jackets or the Kuiu Pro jackets? Since they’re pretty different jackets, I’m trying to figure out some of the replies. I’m wondering is some of the comments about the Kifaru being warmer are referring to the Kuiu Ultra or the Kuiu Pro?
