I bought it for year-round use from snowboarding to hiking. I decided on the Theta for a few main reasons. 1. Gore-Tex Pro Shell is totally waterproof, extremely breathable, w…

I did a lot of research on this jacket as I wanted to make sure I got the best for all around wet weather gear. I have had this jacket for 3-4 years and it is used extensivel…

Arct’ryx do it again! With all the elements you come to take for granted with Arct’ryx, quality fabrics matched with a simple, but fitted, cut. However, the real stand out…

I didn't use this product. But I heard so many times. The Arcteryx is really nice. My friends said they are really comfortable and mild! I think it is good present for my Mom…

I was felt completely comfortable at -22 F (-30 degrees C) with everyday wear under a jacket. It is fully wind- and water- proof, plus keeps the heat inside. Adjusting the hoo…

The jacket is surprisingly light and it isn't bulky. It can be easily stowed or packed. The core loft performs well to heat you up. The warmth spreads almost immediately after…

*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…

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…

The Stingray jacket never failed to return every penny spent on it in function and versatility as an all-around weather terrain jacket. I like to layer on the warmer side & sh…

This jacket is the absolutely best jacket I have for winter activities, especially backcountry skiing. The jacket is built a little large so one can throw on a warm underlaye…

I got this jacket for snow shoeing in the cascades. I wanted something different from my normal shell I wear and I wanted it to be a little warmer but not insulated. The soft…

The jacket looked a lot cooler on the website then in person. The material is a little strange. It's an uncomfortable wool blend. The small elastic cuffs were also weird.…

I had the version of this jacket from 13 years ago, and I've finally retired it to use while doing work around the house in the cold. This new version of the Theta is so much…

This coat is warm and stylish. It runs a little snug but true to size. The sleeves are a bit tighter at the wrist to prevent any cool air running up your arm and it is long…

This coat not only looks gorgeous on (and off), it's been keeping me warm during winter in Northern Colorado. It has a very feminine look / fit unlike my old peacoat that make…

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…

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…

Long enough to cover your bum. Sleeves big enough to fit over mitts. Covers your face. Roomy enough to layer to keep warm. Only problem would be that if you get it big eno…

Unlike other Arcteryx, this is the relaxed fit one. I always wear their usual large; but Micon Large is equal to usual XL for "roomier fit" and for better movement as they cla…
