Great Jacket!

This jacket was exactly what I was looking for a mid to late whitetail season jacket. The fleece liner provides extreme warmth.

Love this jacket

I bought 10 of these in both men and women for my office staff and had them monogrammed. We are in healthcare and can not have regular fleece in the office. The outer surface is smooth and very comfortable, yet the inside is a very warm fleece. Very comfortable and stretchy. The entire staff has worn them every day this winter!

Super warm jacket wore it with the 330 merino top in 4 degree weather only had to put on a wind break over it every so often. Only thing I wish is that wind stopper was built in

The Traverse Jacket serves as a perfect midweight jacket to wearon those cool morning hunts, or as an insulation layer when it's below freezing. It's comfortable, the fit is good, and it doesn't restrict movement at all.

Great Jacket - Need small size

Really like the quality, features, and look of the jacket. However, Sitka does not offer it in Men's small. Fit is probably spot on for a medium. My 14 year old son and I both need a Men's small. Hope Sitka is listening - lot's of teenage fellows need jackets. Had to buy another brand for my teen due to size issues.

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.

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 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.
