KÜHL Jacket Reviews


We recently tried out 3 different jackets from the outdoor apparel company KÜHL. We were highly impressed with the versatility, quality and style of each of the jackets we tried from this company. Although we had previously not heard of KÜHL, a privately owned and independent outdoor apparel company, we are glad we found them as their gear seems perfect for our many outdoor adventures.  We have already brought these KÜHL jackets on some of our outdoor adventures and were pleased with their performance so we plan to bring them on many more.  Below are our gear reviews of each of the KÜHL jackets we own.  


KÜHL Women’s Stunner Insulated Jacket Review 

The KÜHL Women’s Stunner Insulated Jacket is Natalie’s new favorite coat. This cozy yet lightweight coat with a flattering fit did not disappoint.  Natalie recently wore it on several different hikes when we visited the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  She found it functional yet fashionable, a combination that can be hard pressed to find. It is the perfect multi-season fall/spring coat (50s-60s degrees Fahrenheit). It also could be worn in some cooler temperatures with a fleece underneath. The wind/water repellent shell works great too as we did several hikes in the rain and Natalie never got wet.  The stitching on the jacket as well as the color and flannel lining really make it look sharp.

KÜHL Women’s SPYFIRE Hoody Review 

Natalie really likes the KÜHL Women’s SPYFIRE Hoody too. She likes it so much that she is replacing her Patagonia Micro Puff with this jacket.  The quality and warmth of this seems superb to the Patagonia Micro Puff. This is the perfect light yet warm winter coat (with 800-fill-power, responsibly sourced down). It provides warmth without all the bulk making it fashionable too.  Natalie also appreciates the blue color that easily pairs with most of her other hiking/outdoor apparel.

KÜHL Men’s AKTIVATOR Hoody Review 

Sam tried out the KÜHL Men’s AKTIVATOR Hoody. This lightweight jacket is perfect for active winter activities with even just a simple t-shirt underneath.  This coat has three different weights of insulation, giving it supreme temperature regulation.  Moreover, it has AERO knit technology to prevent overheating and keeps you warm (yet not too warm) in many temperatures. The water and wind resistance give it the versatility to maintain as your only coat needed for various cooler weather/climates.
