Walking all day in full sun in upf40+ pants last year in Scotland - no trees. Only noticed overnight and following day I had been burnt through these, not badly but now only wear upf50+ pants (along with similar rated sun hoodie and gloves - I know but it works for me) and haven't had a problem since. Thanks for uploading, Tim. 👍
Thanks for watching! I appreciate the insight here. Glad I went with the UPF 50 pants, then!
Do you have a sun hoodie recommendation, one for the UK if possible?
Nice to see Kuiu get some love in the backpacking space
Thanks for the comment! So far I love it!
The reason I even tune into videos like this is to gather info. You had me interested in the joggers but no mention of pocket configuration if any and weight. Little stuff like that !! CHEERS!
I have that Kuiu fleece and i LOVE it. Comes with me on every trip. It's great for hiking in, for camp and to sleep in! That said, it will not keep you particularly warm at rest if there's a breeze of any kind. Excellent UL article of clothing. I've had mine for over 3 years now and it's going strong other than a couple of burn holes from fires.
Nice! I'm really looking forward to putting it through its paces. Thanks so much for watching!
I have 100% been sunburned right through a t-shirt; Cotton and synthetic. Wool is interesting. Careful with that man.
A first layer of foil would prevent that :)
Thanks for the heads up! Glad I went with the UPF 50 pants, then. I appreciate the comment!
Don't forget, it can be overcast and you get burned... a trekking umbrella is another idea... "Sun-protection is given by a combination of 3 things, the density of the fabric construction, the type of yarns used and its colour."
+1 for Dirty Girl Gaiters. I love mine and have used them for 3 years.
Enjoy the trek!
Absolutely loving them!
Agreed. Dirty Girl Gaiters are the best. I’ve been using them for 10 years!!🎉 I think they are definitely a necessary just for the annoyance of things getting in your shoes.
I never know why, if your pants are too long -- get them shortened... You certainly have a laundry list of problems you need to accommodate, I hope you get them fixed! Safe travels👍
Yeah I'm a mess haha. Thanks for watching!
@@timbschwartz I'd say 'unique'...
The Kuiu Peloton 97 is perfect in its category!
- Much lighter weight than typical fleeces, while still 80% as warm.
- Dries super quick. Packs super small for a fleece.
I love mine. I added my own drawstring to the bottom hem to make it even warmer.
Sounds like a great mod! Thanks for the comment!
Got to be sobo PCT! Have a blast - Washington is the hardest state IMO, probably smart to get it out of the way while you are fresh (though that might just be because I did it at nobo 😂), anyway, hopefully you will do weekly videos. Enjoy!
I'll go into more detail soon! Not trying to be weird about it just lots to figure out before I post more info. Thanks for the well wishes!
I can get (lightly) burned even with upf 50 if it’s a long day up high. But I’m also a ginger. Mostly I get burned in my forearms if I’m using hiking poles. I think it’s smart to cover up and the right gear makes it not so bad.
Thanks for sharing and totally agree!
Glad to see people still praising Altra shoes. I've never understood the whole moving to Topo movement that everyone is doing. For Topo, their options are super limited and their zero-drop shoe doesn't even have the same cushion as the Timp! And Altra still has a wide range of shoes outside of the popular favorites if you think the cushion isn't right for you.
Thanks for the comment! Yup, still love my Altras, despite the issues. Have a great week!
I'd be interested to know how quickly the tech pants dry.
Great point! Some testing is in order.
I’ve been wearing the Kuiu 97 since before COVID. Really nice piece of gear. It will pill where the sternum strap rubs against it, but this has proven to be more of a cosmetic issue than anything else.
Pair the Kuiu 97 with the MontBell Ex Light Windshirt and you’ve got an active layer that’s warm down to 28 F.
While it’s lightweight and doesn’t “seem” warm, as you say, it really is surprisingly warm and is a clutch piece of UL gear while on the move in cold, wet conditions.
It’s also comfortable next to the skin if needed.
UL clothing in general is expensive and doesn’t play well with Velcro. I’ve eliminated all Velcro from my kit, as a result. I was sick of everything snagging on it.
I'm excited to try it out!
And agreed, velcro is the worst. Trying to get rid of as much of it as possible haha
Vertices is the plural of vertex.
Not for a brand or model name.
My Patagonia joggers are a lot like this. I love them too. Also a shorts guy. I have that fleece too. It is my goto. I find it wears though the hand areas a bit.
Nice! I'm excited to try them out. That's good to hear! Sounds like the hoody is tried and true. I was a little concerned about wear from trekking poles, so thanks for the heads up.
Mitts work really well:-)
I'm excited to try them out! Thanks for the comment!
ive used my alpha 90 3-5 times per week since 12/2022 and it holds up (minimum 70 nights out on hikes, worn with out worries in various Scandinavian biomes) , when people talk about it fragile i dont know how they do it, i now have alpha cap, long johns and sleeping/camp socks and they also hold up fine.
Just clumsy, I guess!
I also got the Timp 5’s and I see what you mean about them being less wide. Compared to my Lone Peaks, my toe does hurt after long days.
Thanks for the comment! Glad to hear it's not just me then. They do what I need them to do, but I'm looking forward to switching back to something a bit wider at some point.
You forgot THE most essential gear for any hike..... an UL container for maple syrup ;)
Gotta have the syrup!
@@timbschwartz You know from whom to get some!
Good review of the gear, but you could probably have longer shots of the items when you're talking about them.
Thanks for the feedback!
How was the sizing on the Altras for you?
Hey Bobby! I found them true to size, but a bit narrow than what I would consider a wide toebox shoe.
Will you be announcing your hiking plans soon? Sounds like a PCT or CDT hike perhaps??
Soon! Not trying to be dodgy about it, just lots to get in order before then. Thanks for the comment!
So what’s this bug trip you’re eluding to? Hard to not think PCT.
Bugs = Canada = Maple Syrup
I'll have an update soon! Just want to make sure everything is all squared away.
He talked about sand and cold. So I think you're right: PCT or maybe CDT.
Video idea: climb Mount Everest with nothing but the gear in this video *Challenge*
Mikhail! Solid idea bud. I'll add it to the list :)
Through hike?!?
Could be! More details to come :) Thanks for the comment!
This is sounding like either a GDT or a PCT SOBO attempt.
Two very solid guesses! I'll give more details shortly. Not trying to be weird about it just want to have everything lined up before making it internet official.
Okay, sorry Tim ! You did give a link of the products which gives details. My bad😂
No worries, it was good feedback! Weights are listed in the graphics, tho :)
Ah yes, the Darwin Effect, wherein he mispronounces things on his channel and legions of internet sheep go out into the world uttering the same mispronunciations (also see: Capilene.) Anyway, welcome to Team Pants!
I've had my fair share of mispronunciations on the channel, as well! I'm sure he does his best to be as accurate as possible.
Thanks! Excited to try them out.
