Sitka Gravelly Shell??

[optimusprime]

Has anyone used the Sitka Gravelly shell yet? Seems like it could be a good jacket with it being a 3 layer Gortex.

TTT. I'm curious about this jacket as well.

Uncertain what your intentions/use would be. It’s as advertised. Packs better than kuiu yukon, heavier than Simms G4. Lacks features. Hood is large enough to fit ski/climb helmet or snugged down to head size. Have no our on scale, but certainly lighter options out there. I wear mine for daily use primarily.

Interested as well, primarily as a ski jacket, backpacking, mountain biking etc. all of my jackets are neutral colors and I was thinking the rust might be more visible for Backcountry skiing, but still a Earth tone and from a hunting brand.

Why the hell does Sitka not post weight in their specs? (I suspect the answer is “our gear is heavy and expensive and you will buy it anyway”)

Sitka’s website should just redirect to 1shot gear. https://1shotgear.com/products/sitka-gear-gravelly-shell-80020

So, its 18 oz presumably for a size medium?
And that’s company spec?

Kryptek doesn't post weights on their gear either.

Good question, I’m not sure. I thought it would be lighter like a solid color dewpoint type jacket. Some items will show a weight on the Sitka site when you compare products, this one doesn’t.

Did any of you pick this up? If so, just curious what you think of it and for use in hunting?

I think it would be too noisy for hunting but not any worse then the coldfront. It has no insulation though.
