This piece was designed by Kuhl founder, Kevin Boyle during the evolution from ALFWEAR to KUHL, which encompassed just a few short years. It's a rare heritage example of his early work that connects the Kuhl brand to its roots in Utah's rugged mountain culture. Likely part of a very small number produced.
