KUIU Proximity Hooded Insulated Jacket | Valo

DESCRIPTION

Best For: Whitetail – Cold to Frigid Conditions

Proximity combines industry-leading technologies to ensure you remain undetected during close-encounter situations and stay warm in cold-weather conditions. Using proprietary technology, the ultra-quiet Proximity Series pairs a low-sheen brushed fabric with a windproof SynthaCell® foam coating for increased protection and warmth retention.

Developed from the ground up, Proximity is engineered with purpose-driven features for stand hunting in cold to frigid conditions. Features include a patent-pending removable hood, safety harness port, hand-warmer holders, and pit vents. Leveraging body-mapped 3DeFX+® insulation, Proximity strategically positions heavier insulation in more vulnerable areas, with lighter insulation where extra breathability is needed.

The outer-layer fit comfortably layers over a safety harness, insulated mid-layer, and base layer—while its articulated design, high-stretch fabric, and streamlined forearms allow you to shoot without interference or restricting mobility.
