kuiu yukon vs First lite boundary
Odell:
Looking for a lightweight shell, waterproof and breathable. Curious if anyone has experience with the kuiu yukon or the boundary storm tight jacket. Or are there some others I should consider. Or I should say the Mrs should consider for my anniversary present...
Odell:
Bump…anybody?
Booner:
I have the boundary stormtight which I used this year and absolutely loved it. Breathes great for a rain shell and pretty quiet as well. My hunting buddy had the Kuiu which was nice looking but it seemed much louder. The boundary had more ventilation due to the much larger put zips.

I have the first lite boundary storm tight jacket as well. I have no other comparisons but have worn it a number of times. It is light weight and breathes well. IT isn't quiet in my opinion but what rain gear is.
Booner:
Good point, I should have clarified... It's pretty quiet for a rain jacket.
I used the Cabelas rain suede, quieter than first lite due to the brushed stuff outside but doesn't breath (although better than rivers west) and ended up getting wet around the shoulders. For around town I use a Patagonia rain shadow or something, very water proof doesn't breath nearly as well as the first lite.
