By full set I mean base layer top, mid weight top, vest, jacket, light to mid weight pants. That's the "set" I'm looking at.

if your a bigger guy just stay clear of kuiu..They run super small

Ive read this over and over, I almost feel like calling Kuiu to see if I got some oddball pants or something. I ordered a pair of Guide pants in 32, Im a skinny tall guy, and I swim in the things. The calves are borderline tight but then every thing from the knees up to the waist feel like there 34s or bigger! Its like they are cut for women. They actually fit my wife who has larger hips perfectly.

The guides are cut a little bigger then the attacks but all the pants fit about true for me, the shirts is where the problem is. Athletic cut is an understatement. It's weird because I have a little bit of a belly and the shirts fit fine around the waist area, the chest shoulders and arms are ridiculous it's almost like wearing an underarmour at times.

Just my 2 cents but I am 6 6 and right at 270 and the kuiu fits me well the only issue I have is that the attack pants that I have, which were made in Canada, are a little short, but I just wear a pair of gators. I have the guide coat in 3xl and it has plenty of room for layering under. I can wear my typical UA layer as well as a heavy sweatshirt. After using the kuiu system from SW Washington to Wyoming to the high cascades I recommend anyone looking at gear to give kuiu a serious look. On top of that their customer services is top notch!
