I N N O VAT I O N N E V E R R E S T S .

This August I spent 10 days in Northern British Columbia hunting Stone Sheep with Golden Bear Outfitting’s Greg and Blake Williams. It was the most physically, mentally and technically challenging hunt I have been on in 35 years. We crossed glaciers and crevasses in crampons and climbed the steepest, most technical rock ridges I have ever navigated. Inhospitable country for sure, and the perfect setting to challenge body, mind and will. Truly a hunt I will never forget.

Why Pay More for Less?

Unlike traditional retail models that are built around price points that limit performance and quality, we start with superior ingredients, engage suppliers as partners and cut out the middleman to make exceptional equipment for less.

ULTRA MERINO 125 145 210

B A S E L AY E R

Lightweight, Comfortable and Odor Resistant

BASE LAYER NEW THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND OUR BASE LAYER

Nuyarn® KUIU’s quest for the finest ingredients led us to Nuyarn from The Merino Wool Company in New Zealand, where they take their wool remarkably seriously. Nuyarn is not a new fabric, it’s a new way of making fabric. Traditional ring spun yarn twists the life out of yarn, Nuyarn doesn’t.

Changing the Very Fabric of Yarn

Classic yarns twist fibers together for strength, which leaves ends poking out. Nuyarn takes the twist out, and instead lays fibers along the same orientation as the rest of the yarn, so fabrics feel less prickly and more comfortable yet become stronger. Nuyarn lower-density fabrics let lighter-weight garments outperform heavier traditional ring spun garments.

NO TWISTS – Only Comfort.

Because there are no twists in the yarn, fabrics feel less prickly on the skin. There’s heaps of loftiness with less weight.

Stretchier clothes move better with your body. Nuyarn has a zero percent spirality so our clothing retains its shape and seams stay put.

Because the fibers are not twisted in Nuyarn, more natural insulating air remains in the fabric to retain heat.

Stunner Stretch is an ultralight, down-proof fabric with 2-way stretch for greater comfort.

SUPER DOWN INSULATION LAYER

Water repellent shell The Toray Stunner Stretch fabric is treated at the individual fiber level with Toray’s Industry Leading Kudos DWR treatment.

Positively Waterproof In a real-world technology test, two jars were filled with equal amounts of water and thoroughly shaken to expose the down to water.

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND OUR SUPER DOWN PRODUCTS

Quixdown®. Waterproof Warmth

Regular down became saturated and lost its loft.

Quixdown repelled the water and kept its loft.

QXD_Logo Development ARTWORK

Down treated with water repellent finish.

Down has the highest warmth-to-weight ratio of any insulation material. The only draw back is that once wet, down stops being effective and takes very long to dry.

Not anymore. Through nanotechnology, Toray Industries has created a water repellent finish for down feathers that makes each down cluster essentially waterproof. Quixdown® stays dry to keep you warmer with less weight and bulk.

2013.09.30

Polish Down Not all materials used in hunting gear are created equal, which becomes obvious when you compare KUIU’s ingredients to what retailers offer. We use only premium goose down from Poland, the highest quality and loft-rated down feathers in the world.

Stunner® Stretch by Toray

POLISH DOWN

Toray develops a new fabric technology and KUIU brings it to Mountain Hunters first! Ultralight, down-proof Stunner Stretch fabrics stretch as you move and put a layer of luxurious comfort between you and the warm softness of KUIU’s premium Polish down. And, of course, Stunner Stretch minimizes bulk and weight.

Ultra-packable and compressible, our Super Down products are filled with 850+ FP 100% Polish Goose Down and feature a 95/5 down-tofeather ratio.

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND OUR OUTER LAYER PRODUCTS

SPIRAL YARN

Primeflex. A Key Ingredient to Losing Four Pounds Primeflex fabrics use a patented spiral yarn technology, allowing the yarn to stretch and recover without using elastic such as Lycra®.

Toray’s innovative Primeflex yarn increases fabric durability and decreases weight and drying time. Primeflex fabrics feature a patented spiral yarn technology that allows the yarn to stretch and recover without using heavy, water-absorbing elastics such as Lycra®. The result is more comfortable, higher-performance Primeflex fabrics that weigh about 40 percent less than comparable traditional fabrics.

Kudos® XR DWR (Durable Water Repellent) Kudos XR DWR performs better and lasts significantly longer than conventional DWR. DWR is critical for waterproof breathable face fabric. If DWR fails the face fabric “wets out” causing condensation build up on the inside of the garment.

THE TECHNOLOGY BEHIND OUR PACK SYSTEMS

Carbon Fiber: Lose Weight, Not Strength

CARBON FIBER

You’ll find carbon fiber anywhere high-performance strength-to-weight ratios are important, like aerospace, cycling, yachting and auto racing. Yet until recently, not in Mountain Hunting.

KUIU introduced the world’s first molded carbon fiber pack frame to reduce weight yet create a strong pack that moves with your body. Carbon fiber is half the weight of aluminum and twice as strong as steel, leading KUIU to craft a patented 11-ounce California-made carbon fiber frame that is stronger, lighter, stiffer and carries heavy loads comfortably.

Fully Adjustable Suspension “Field Tested” KUIU added unconventional field-testing to laboratory analysis of its carbon fiber pack frame. In activities that include driving over it with a pick-up truck, loading it with 150 lbs. of gym weights and throwing a loaded pack off a cliff, the carbon fiber frame proved its strength.

KUIU redesigned the suspension in its ULTRA and ICON Pro packs utilizing a patented T-Lock track system that securely holds the shoulder straps to the frame and allows for easy adjustment and customizable comfort. The sleek design and new hip belt move the frame and pack closer to your back, offering excellent support for carrying demanding loads.
