Does anyone have any first hand experience with this clothing?
Thoughts, recommendations, faults, how do they measure size wise?
Thanks

Don't know about the Rukka....but Outlast is good stuff.

It's gonna be fierce pricey??

UnderArmour "Cold Gear" in the winter and UnderArmour "Heat Gear" in the summer is what I've settled on after trying loads of different stuff........merino wool included.

Suit you, sir
 
I realise I’m probably in the minority on this, but I was never impressed with Outlast technology. Obviously the astronauts thought differently. I never found it particularly warm, and the cooling or temperature regulating properties were not evident to me. Merino layering seems much more effective.
 
I’ve got a couple of Outlast tops, among others. Are they any better? Probably not.
 
Utter shit.
Whilst they do regulate the temperature - they are NOT an insulator.
So expect to get cold in winter with them.
Fucking cold.
Why they couldn't have just used a proper insulated liner for their Navigatorr suit is a mystery.
Mine are sitting in the wardrobe after the run to Italy last december and have stayed there ever since.
They actually increase the rate at which you chill - there is no heat transfer back from them at all but you certainly do feel the heat being taken away in lower temps.
