Good Fit. Perfect

Solid

It’s a very solid jacket and can be used from mid to late season — I will say though, if you’re going to wear in late season (cold temps: 33 and lower, with wind), you need to layer very well or you will get cold. I give it a 4/5 because I don’t believe it’s a 5 star in (cold) wind protection.

Great jacket

Great mid season. Plenty of room the layer underneath.

For the person who can't decide

I wanted to put a review up here for the guys like me who struggle to decide whether something like this is worth the investment. Long story short, I think this jacket is great, but whether I say it's worth it or not would take into context how you hunt. I do not have access to private land, so I am stuck hunting public (whitetail) in North Carolina. I do a lot of walking and typically, once I head in the woods in the morning, I don't come out until I kill something or until dark. With this in mind, I want to be able to pack everything I need in my backpack when I head in. The other thing for me is that I only bow hunt. For this reason, I don't want bulky, noisy clothes that create the risk of spooking deer or interfering with my maneuverability. In my area, we typically don't see the 30s until Thanksgiving or December so I also want something I can use in a range of temps. With that context laid out, I think this jacket is great. The pockets are in great spots, it is quiet, and it is great for layering. I've worn it now in temps as high as 50 and with a 120 Merino long sleeve underneath, it was perfect. Today, I sat in 25-degree weather from 0530 to 1130. For my top half I have the Merino 120, a heavy (non sitka) thermal long sleeve, a lightweight sweater, and the Stratus jacket and was great. Probably would have been fine without the sweater, but I had it so I wore it. This jacket is also low enough profile that I can easily put it in my backpack. Now, if I am being honest, I would have a tough time spending the money if I were riding a side by side to a field, walking 100 yards to a box blind, and shooting spikes from 200 yards with a 300wm. At that point, I would probably be fine just wearing any run of the mill, cold weather hunting coat. If you are looking for something that is versatile, lightweight, and warm, I would say this is worth the investment. As far as fit, I am 6'1" 240 lbs with an athletic build. I bought a LT and it fits great and layered well with the above mentioned clothes. If I carried more weight in my midsection, I would probably want an XL.

Warm and comfortable!

It kept me warm and dry when it needed to. Super comfortable too!

Perfect jacket without all of the bulk

This jacket was a let down at first sight. But once I started using it in conjunction with the fanatic hoody and/or the ambient hoody my thought process changed immediately! This jacket paired with a good base layer, a fanatic hoody and fanatic bibs and it’s perfect!!! I would definitely recommend this jacket 1 it works surprisingly well and 2 it is very low bulk. It is very comfortable and it actually checks all the boxes!!!

Great jacket and love that

Great jacket and love that it is windproof and comes in tall. Fit is great

Very comfortable and quiet. Depending

Very comfortable and quiet. Depending on how I layer underneath it it can take me from 45 degrees to 15 degrees comfortably. Can’t recommend enough

Very soft material. I have

Very soft material. I have the older stratus jacket and it was great. Cant wait to try out this one.

Useless jacket

This is not at all a warm jacket. It’s also too small to layer underneath. It also took way too long to ship out and didn’t arrive in time even though I paid the extra for overnight shipping.

Stratus Jacket 2. 0

Fits very well

Warmth & design

I have the Stratus in and it’s a great jacket but the 2. 0 is awesome. The only issue which is minor is that the forearm portion of the sleeve is a little tighter than I would like.

Great gift! Warm and kept

Stratus 2. 0 ,so far a great piece!

Only used a couple times but seems to be great piece!!

Amazzing Jacket

This is the most comfortable, best fitting jacket I have ever purchased. Fit better than expected, kept me warm and dry.

Poor

This is Vernon Armstrong, I wrote a review on your site about the Bibs Stratus 2. 0 , I thought I was writing about the Stratus 2. 0 Jacket too. I froze my butt off with both pieces of the outfit.

Great cool weather gear

Very quiet and warm enough for a day where cooler weather is uncomfortable in normal hunting gear.

Great jacket

Quality is great, great all around aside from the fit

Great Jacket!!!

Love this jacket!

Great jacket

This jacket fits great and cuts wind when you need. Definitely an improvement

Size medium

It seems to be equally as good as the original. I've really enjoyed my 1. 0 sets, so I'm certain this will be just as good. Definitely like the new cover patterns, though! Highly recommend to anyone on the fence for a early/mid season kit. I own a set in elevated, sub alpine, and cover now, and love all 3.

Stratus Jacket

Love this jacket

Must Have in your closet

The Fanatic line is of the best to have, but for later season. The stratus is a must have for mid to warmer temps. It is incredible how you can stand in a cold wind and not feel the air movement through the jacket.

As always great product

As always great product

Outstanding jackets.

Quieter than I expected too

Warm and fits right

It wasn’t the coldest hunt I have been on by any means. But every morning I put on this jacket and the cold breeze never got to me. Plus it doesn’t make any noise and has great mobility.

Stratus jacket

Fits true to size and is very warm. Been using just this and a hoodie in 20 degree weather

Warm jacket. Fits great. Highly

Warm jacket. Fits great. Highly recommended

2. 0 jacket

The neck is a little snug when fully zipped. The hood doesn’t work well when hunting with a safety harness. I will probably remove when I’m in a stand. other than that I would buy it again, it’s a solid piece. I wish I had this jacket before my fanatic set. It doesn’t get cold enough in Indiana for the fanatic.

Great jacket

This jacket provides a great wind blocking technology. With this warmth is provided. I recommend wearing an under layer of clothing if the elements reach below 40°. Coat seems to be very durable and zippers are quiet. I guess the only thing I wished it had was a few more pockets on the outside. Other than that, this jacket is excellent. !

Stratus 2. 0

I’ve always been hesitant to purchase Sitka gear due to the cost. I finally decided to give it a try. My first time using it over the weekend however did not disappoint me at all. It was about 40 degrees and slightly windy. I wore the merino 330 hoodie and stratus 2. 0 jacket with stratus 2. 0 pants and was actually warmer than I was wearing an insulated jacket in the same conditions two weeks prior. I couldn’t even feel the wind at all which was very impressive. Im extremely happy with my purchase so far and will be purchasing a few other layers in the future.

Perfect for 35-50 degrees

Stratus Jacket 2. 0

I’ve never not been cold while hunting, this jacket is amazing!

Stratus jacket 2. 0

Coat fits well and runs true to size. Looking forward to wearing during our rifle deer season.

A great jacket

Warm and comfortable option for dry weather. Would not do good in rain.

Stratus 2. 0

The Stratus 2. 0 is by far my favorite piece of Sitka gear I’ve purchased so far. The design and quality are clearly well thought out, and it provides excellent warmth. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for top-tier performance and comfort.

Stratus jacket

Been using this jacket for two years now it’s perfect for 70% of the season with it not being particularly warm but blocking the wind allows you to just throw a hoody under and your good down to about 40 degrees
