So, I really wanted a kryptek aegis jacket for tree stand hunting but you can't find one for sale or in stock anywhere. My plan now is to go with the aquillo and wear the dalibor over it to help keep the noise down. I have an XL dalibor jacket that is bigger than I thought it'd be, and I have the einar in xl which is cut much smaller than the dalibor. I'm 6'2", 215, athletic build. Does anyone know how the aquillo is cut and could you recommend XL or L for sizing. And for what it's worth, the kryptek merino top in XL is too big, but the Helios is perfect. I hate mismatched sizing with expensive gear. Also any thoughts on using the aquillo under the dalibor for cold weather tree stand hunting? I feel like it's a reasonable substitute to the aegis.
 
i wear my aquillo under my dalibor up high lately when glassing. it fits perfect for me. i can also fit a size large poseiden over all that fine. i wear a large dalibor and a medium aquillo. i bought both the large and medium aquillo and the large was too big, the medium is perfect, i am 5'8'' 160 and fit though. i prefer my light down layer to fit as a underlayer. the arm length is right, not short not long on the aquillo in the size i selected, cuffs come right to my wrists, the large was baggy in my belly area wich defeated the purpose to layer. i can shoot my bow as i prefer this way as well. the aegis gets in my arms way when shooting my bow and is more heavy but fine for a stand. for super cold temps i would probly wear the aquillo under the aegis, at least for my body fat levels. only have ran the dalibor/aquillo combo in the high 20's low 30'3 thus far but was cold with just the aegis last fall in the teens. good luck......
 
I am going to be setting up my treestand clothing with Kryptek as well, but using their bibs with a Kratos puffy under the Koldo jacket. Both are large and they work very well together.
