Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Covert Cardigan

I have worn this top for almost everything all over the world for almost ten years and am looking for another one. The fleece is a bit warmer than ordinary fleece and it sheds wind better. I started out using it skiing in Montana over long undies under a hard shell. When it got really cold, I would wear a light down jacket over it and no shell. I have worn it in South Asia when the A/C is too strong, used it as a pillow and a jacket while camping and trekking in South Asia and Bolivia, used it in Europe on trains and planes. It does not pill--I have replaced the zipper (rather ineptly) but still love it. I just used this for a week while camping in central Utah--we had frost on the tent, high cold winds, and even some dusty windy sun in the 50's. I love my sweater fleece but just wish the price were a bit lower.

I love this jacket. I have recieved so many compliments the first day I wore it. It is lightweight and warm. The material is soft. Nicely fitted not too tight around the armpits. I am 150 lbs and a medium fits nicely. I just discovered this brand and I pretty much love all of the line.

I have another Arc'Teryx pullover "cowl"-neck in this fabric, so I thought it was worth a try. Unfortunately, this is a much slimmer cut, which doesn't work for my body. It also has been stabilized with some woven material, which probably adds warmth and wind resistance. What that also does is to make it less stretchy. If you are toned, slim, and have long arms, you might find this a gem.

I was very excited to get this jacket as I did not want to buy into the Patagonia hysteria, but honestly after wearing it for a month & washing it alone with cold water and without fabric softener it has turned into a messy & ugly piece of clothing. Honestly for its poor durability this jacket should be recalled.

This is a generous top, and nicely tailored, but the sleeves are fingertip length--way too long.

this is such a nice jacket for after a workout. I love to toss it in my workout bag and put it on after. it's great quality and not too heavy.

I have owned this jacket for about 10 months and used it through the winter and spring hiking season. It has held up well, however there has been a lot of pilling on the jacket and it needs to be "shaved" after every 3-4 wash cycles. If you don't care about how worn the jacket looks and just need something functional this is a great option.

Bought this in Nov 2019 and would have returned it in early 2020 due to the constant pilling, except for Covid and the resultant lockdown. Functionally is nice and warm. However, the pilling is really bad and it looks tatty. Can't really wear it on video calls now with clients as the pilling shows! What high tech problems we have in Covid times.

Excellent jacket, comfortably design and quality material. I would recommend this jacket to friends and family.

I like this cardigan and have now purchased 3:black, royal blue, and lavender. They look neat, are the correct length, and allow me to move freely while wearing them. Good for cool weather and plane travel when flighrs run cold.

I own a few of these cardigans in 3 different sizes due to recent weight loss. I still use the larger ones (that I have had for years!) around the house and they still look great. They just don't wear out and I wear them every day that's chilly enough. They wash well and come out looking like new.

I now have two of these jackets: black and this one which is a light blue/lavender/gray. They are warm without being puffy or fluffy and fit well. The length is just right, and they are comfortable. I do wish it came in navy blue, also.

Vor und/oder nach dem Sport, perfekte Jacke bei khlen Temperaturen. Super angenehmes Material. Tolle Farbe.

Fits very well. It's comfortable and warm. Fabric feels good and seems very durable. Pockets are functional. I also like the color.

This is the warmest jacket I've had of this weight. Great for layering, instantly makes me feel warmer. Sometimes even a little too warm for ice climbing! The material has held up well after a lot of wearing and washing. The fit is very nice however the tailored feel does restrict arm movement a little bit, so I wear it more for skiing than ice climbing however it works fine for both.

Used in my Xinjiang trip , Perfect comfort and warmth.

I wear this everyday except in the summer. Perfect to size and keeps me warm but not too warm. Full easy makes it easy to vent if needed. Love it!

I like this cardigan that made me feel warm and comfy. And the grey color is easy to get matched!

Im 170/53 and got this in the XS heather gray and another in navy blue. Fits me perfect and is so flattering on me Extremely warm as well. love it!

So much warmer than I expected! I wore it skinning and it was perfect. 11/10 would recommend.

I live the color, it's pretty warm after put it on. Perfect purchase

I have had this sweater jacket for a few years now and I am still in love with it. It works well when I want to wear it in the office over a thin blouse. Casual, but still stylish! I am 5'3" and about 165 pounds and I wear a size large. If you are either more petite or on the slimmer side then yes this jacket may be a bit more boxy, but as you can see I am not so it fits me perfectly

This is the third Covert Cardigan that I have bought. As usual, Arc'Teryx never disappoints. I really enjoy the redesign of this fleece jacket. Where the style is a little more boxy I sized down from a M to a S and the fit is perfect. It is the perfect layering piece under my Atom Hoody or my Alpha SV. This years colours are so pretty, I can even wear them to work on a chilly day. I highly recommend this product!!

I recently purchased two of the Covert Cardigans in Storm Glow (M) and Velocity Heather (S). Due to the redesign I had to size down in the Velocity Heather as I found the arms too bulky. I LOVE these cardigans and I'm super excited to see some new colours in this line; way more feminine looking. This product is a closet staple in my household, my husband and I love them and wear them all year round!! Highly recommend if you are looking for a great quality fleece to layer under other Arc'teryx products or as a stand alone piece.

I love my new cardigan, it's a perfect fit and length for my petite arms and body. And it's thick enough to use during California winters.
