New Incinerator Aerolite

[H80Hunter]

Local shop has it. Fit and finish is like the old incinerator but the bulk is closer to the Stratus than the Fanatic. Looks incredible. Found at least one place listing it online for pics:

It does look cool. But daaaamn that’s spendy! Is it quiet? Could you tell where it fits warmth wise, maybe between stratus and fanatic?

 

[H80Hunter]

It is very similar feel to the existing incinerator. Allegedly despite being barely bulkier than the stratus it is warmer than the fanatic. If that’s true I’d be impressed it’s very thin.

Bumping this one up.

Any more hands on with this new system? Any word on an official release date?

It has me very curious.

I was at Sitka HQ this week. The official launch is the 13th.

They let me put hands on the system after they pulled one from the back. It’s half the “puff” of the older system. Maybe more. It’s super thin compared to the older incinerator snd the fanatic.

I may have to try one of these…should be a very versatile system without the bulk of the old system.

 

[H80Hunter]

Not a ton of info but it’s on the Sitka website as well.

Definitely looks good for how thin it is. Going to wait a season before I decide to spend that coin. If it's that thin but warmer than the fanatic I would be floored

Looks nice, as I do have some Sitka gear, but went with First Lite for winter clothing. As with the expensive price of the Incinerator for both the jacket and bibs, I was able to get both the Sanctuary 2.0 and new Solitude, in both bibs and jackets for the same price was my deciding factor.

I will likely order this set next month and give it a try this fall

Is it still not insulated below the knee?

I'd have to consult with my bank's loan officer first before buying!

ordered as well.... there were times w the wind up. i still got a bit cold in the 2020 fanatic update after 4+ hours or so.... really hoping for a warmer yet not so bulky setup

So have you worn the Sanctuary 2.0 kit in any cold weather yet this year?

Is the new aero lite insulated below the knees

 

[AMartin]

No it is not insulated below the knees. And it really isn’t warm. I was cold in the mid 30s with wool baselayers. It is not a very good static piece. Walking it is plenty warm. It is at least well made though.

Thanks glad I didn’t waste my money

I've been reading some bad initial reviews on the new insulation online recent...potentially a flop release? Has Sitka ever had a flop before?

Any reviews on this yet ?

Have my eyes on it and you always seem to have great input on stuff.....
