Purchased post season so no

Purchased post season so no hunting with this yet but so far it’s a great jacket and I love the athletic fit. Quiet, comfortable and I like the pattern with hardwoods I hunt. Excited for mid and late season.

Best medium weather jacket

This jacket is a top-notch jacket that helps to shield wind, yet breath from the places that need to vent. If you choose to wear it as an every-day or every-other day jacket, beware for the fiber roll (balling) on the bottom of the sleeve in the forearm area.

As I by pieces of gear a few at a time in order to build my system I have not really tested the jacket yet other than around the house.

Best Jacket Ever!

This is the perfect jacket! It blocks the wind keeping you warm but also breathes so you’re not too hot. If you don’t have this jacket I suggest you add it to your collection. It may run a bit small so I did go up a size just for comfort. I’d give it 10 stars if I could.

Well made and great fit

Just a short review to say the Traverse Jacket is well made, warm enough for 35 degree weather, and the quality is excellent. I’m 6’ 175 lbs and bought a large size jacket. It fits perfectly. A medium is too small for me.

Good jacket

This jacket did not disappoint. Might be a hair small for a large, but I don't want baggy hunting clothes and I am a weight lifter. Didn't get a chance to use it yet, as I bought it at the end of the season. But I'm very pleased with the material and quality.

The jacket I will wear often

The Traverse jacket is a great fit and weight that makes it excellent for variable weather. It’s the perfect outer layer as the season gets cooler and a great middle layer in cold weather conditions. The Sitka quality is always there in the durable fabric and stitching.

Premium Warmth, Slightly Tight Fit

The Sitka Traverse Jacket feels extremely high quality right out of the box and does a great job retaining warmth perfect for morning hunts. The materials and construction definitely live up to the brand’s reputation. That said, it ran a bit smaller than expected, which ultimately led me to return it. If you’re between sizes or plan to layer underneath, I’d recommend sizing up.

Traverse jacket

Another great example of the high quality and superior products from Sitka. I have used this jacket multiple occasions during hiking and conditioning trips in the Wichita Mountains this fall and early spring. Weather has been all over the place and the lightweight jacket is perfect for packing; small and lightweight but extremely comfortable and warm in dropping temperatures and high winds.
