Amy merino is pretty soft, it will tear or hole more so than other fabrics. If you're bush stalking then a merino outer layer is probably not going to last. The kuiu peleton 118 is good, durable and fast drying. Another notable piece of information, is that merino is hydrophilic, meaning in the winter time it will absorb sweat and be wet which can become a very cold layer to wear. The kuiu peleton118 does not absorb sweat but the sweat evaporates fast and leaves the layer dry faster than merino. I wear merino in summer time as the sweat absorbing off your body to the fabric has a cooling effect. Most all kuiu garments have an antimicrobial content as well which helps prevent your clothes from stinking on multiple day hunts.
