The outer material is very high quality, pictures can't do it justice. The coreloft insulation is super soft, springy, and gives the feel of the perfect balance between weight…

Bought this for the hubby because he needed something he could just throw on in our cold WY winters without having to layer up. I was hoping it would be like my North Face Red…

*FIT: I got the Medium and Large to compare. I'm 5'6" 155lbs - the M fit with just enough room to wear a thin long sleeve shirt underneath. If you're 130-140, the M will be…

Although this jacket is very comfortable, stylish, fashionable, etc., the fit was simply a little odd. It was super short in the torso and baggy in the upper arms. The lining…

Just bought this as a Christmas present for my mom after she saw my Atom LT and wanted one for herself. I think my mom was happier getting this jacket than hearing that I got…

Arc'teryx's size chart was pretty accurate on the fit of this jacket, and I otherwise liked the fit and style, but the wrists were uncomfortably tight, to the point of being c…

The Covert Hoody was the first peice of Arc'teryx clothing i owned and let just say it left a lasting impression. I wore it everywhere/everyday! Hasn't worn out a bit, just go…

This hoodie is soft, durable, and very, very, very warm. Very warm. The pockets are a bit weird...the sleeve pocket is too small an the regular pockets are very big...no ins…

My GF was getting jealous that I was buying all this Arcteryx gear for myself that I felt bad (not really) so I bought her a piece just so she could feel as special as me (onc…

I was lazy and shopped on line and bought this after having a nice live chat. Normally Arcteryx products are a little short on my monkey arms but this one hangs down over my k…

Love this hoody. I didn't find it to run too short at all. it runs exactly like every other Arcteryx thing I have ever tried on or owned. I love the length and I HATE short th…

This hoody is adorable, until you put it on :( I don't feel like I'm abnormally long in the torso but this shirt was very short! I just didn't feel like it would be something…

I have this in Pumpkin Pie, size S and Olive Oil, size M. They both appear just as bright as the pictures show. I'm 5'8, 120lbs, and both fit great for what I need. The S is p…

I bought this hoody for my wife. The hood's scuba style is great to wear under your helmet, it doesn't bunch up and it's sleek. It's warm but breathable, and my wife love how…

I've had the strato for a little while and it seems to be larger around the mid section than other arcteryx clothing. I'm 6'2 and 170lbs and I have a few arcteryx items that…

A very nice addition to my closetful of Arcteryx gear. Worn it a couple of times already in central New York beginnings of winter. Almost too warm for the 30s with just a ss T…

Very lightweight but also very warm. Guess in fancy terms, that means the warmth to weight ratio is outstanding but that sounds like math. Seriously, great jacket - extremel…

This is my new go to jacket. It is hard to believe how warm this jacket is considering how little it weighs. I am 5'9" and 155 lbs and a medium fits just right. I live in…

The construction is well-considered and there are some nice features that I have grown to expect from Arcteryx products. The fit is amazing, it's lightweight and extremely p…

I love how light, comfortable, and stylish this jacket is! I recently wore this in a 42 F* frigid night with only a light long-sleeve cotton shirt (it's as thin as paper) and…

I will say it is very warm and lightweight jacket, ski in it is very convenient. Hood deep and insulated, can be easily adjusted to your liking. jacket totally blown by the wi…

I wore this when I camped in Hell, MI last year (surprisingly cold-below freezing). It hit right above my hips. I'm a 36D and the medium fit perfect everywhere, even when I w…

I bought this jacket in hope that it would work as a winter jacket combined with a thick sweater beneath and possibly a windproof layer for windy days. I went biking to wor…

Tremendous hoody. I've used it for running in cool temps. Fit is trim, as it should be for a base/sole layer. Arc's update to the Phase material does make it feel better again…

Like any gear that blurs boundaries, it does most of what you want, just not as well as the ideal layer. So it breathes and wicks, but not aw well as a Paty R1 Hoody. It pro…

I had the chance to try this jacket on recently and I found it to be an amazing piece of equipment that I can't live without. You can rock it on it's own or use it for layerin…
