I think I must have four Atom LTs in my closet, great as a sweater in the shoulder season, and a great layering piece for winter sports.

I bought this Coreloft jacket because down ones pierce through the lining and you get covered in down. Sleeves are a bit too long and it should be offered in a brownish color. Quality is what you would expect from Arcteryx.

I love this jacket! It packs easily and can be used in many different temperature ranges. Feels very comfortable and fits like a glove. The only downside is it is a little tight under the arms, but I don't notice it after wearing it a while.

Love this jacket so far. We finally got some colder weather and I was able to get out in this jacket. It is warm but it breathes in the places I get over heated. So far it has been perfect for the 30-40 degree weather. The fit for me is athletic but it could be a bit looser in the arms and shoulders. I do wish the cuffs and bottom had been tighter. Maybe a draw string at the bottom would help. I don't think the fabric will be very durable but with this type of jacket I don't think is supposed to be. I have used this jacket for hiking and just walking the dogs.
Just in case, I am 6' and 210 with a 34''-35'' in waist. The XL fit well. I just wish the body was tapered better to fit by build.

This jacket is by far the best jacket i have ever owned. I bought the large and it fits perfect. Not too snug, not too loose, just right. I love the fact that it is a very soft jacket, and that it can repel water exceptionally well. I have the black without the hood, and it looks great on me. I normally wear it out in the city when the girlfriend and i shop and dine. It keeps me quite warm on the cold days and i like the fact that the side is made of fleece. I can get hot rather easily and the fact that its a beathable jacket is a plus for me. I own similar jackets, north face, marmot, and patagonia and none of these come close to the wearability and compressionability. I can darn near compress it to fit in my pocket... Ok well maybe not that much but it compresses quite small. I thnk arc terex hit the nail on the head with this one! I look forward to buying more products.

Hatte die Jacke grade 2 Wochen in den Alpen dabei und praktisch jeden Tag bei den verschiedenen Aktivitten (vom Campen bis zum Klettern in Klettergarten und -steig) in Gebrauch. Mein Fazit: Ist eine super Jacke mit prima Passform, ebenso guter Bewegungsfreiheit und guter Isolierung. Ist auch bei starkem Wind ausreichend winddicht und hat gelegentlichen, kurzen Nieselregen ohne Probleme abgehalten. Die Kapuze passt ber den Kletterhelm, was bei starkem Wind ein echter Komfortgewinn war (kein Zug im Nacken). Die rmelbndchen aus "Lycra" finde ich insbesondere fr Aktivitten wie Klettern deutlich besser als die einfachen Gummis an anderen Jacken.
Da sie schn leicht ist und wenig Platz weg nimmt, kommt sie in Zukunft bestimmt zu allen Outdoor-Aktivitten mit.
Ach ja: Passt auch prima unter meine arc'teryx Beta AR in gleicher Gre.

I really love this jacket. I tried it on in medium and large, and chose large for a less fitted more layerable jacket (I'm 5'6" 150lb.) Today this jacket delivered. It was in the 50s in SF and unexpected rain hit this evening. The jacket kept me warm with a little moisture in the arms through a twenty minute bike ride in mist (it isn't waterproof of course! but it worked in a pinch). I stopped over at a friend's place and hung it up for twenty minutes and BOOM it was dry, ready to go back out for my cycle home. A proper rain was falling and it kept me warm again and mostly dry for the ride home.

Un must en effet en ce qui me concerne. cette veste est chaude, elle ne tient pas de place dans le sac dos . Elle remplace sans aucun problme une polaire. Extrmement confortable, coupe ajuste , agrable a porter et protgeant efficacement le bas du dos. Il m'arrive de la porter en couche externe 0 degr centigrades avec uniquement un t shirt sans ressentir de sensation de froid. Bref , pour moi, elle est indispensable . C'est mon couteau suisse vestimentaire outdoor.

I have friends who have this jacket or the AR version - had to get one! Love the feel of the material.
I'm usually an XS in tops and size 0 on pants. Only issue I have with all arc'teryx jackets is I never feel they give enough chest size. I'm 34C in top and I often try both small and xs because it fits a bit tight in chest - small is too bulky in rest of fit, though, so I've always stayed with the XS.
That being said, I adore this jacket, it's great under my Beta LT jacket for winter days, the cuffs on the sleeves have details in them that are great for layering and wrist mobility, and the pockets have a soft, warm liner.

This fits better and is better constructed than any of the competitive products out there. And it's trim but still doesn't make me look fat in XXL. Great layering system. I might not wear it all alone to do rough work in since the outer material is thin but it is also very light and breathable... I've been using it under a shell and can use it all season long... on the coldest days I add a fleece but most of the time just wear a lightweight performance top.

this jacket is super light yet breathable and warm. I use it as a midlayer under a shell or alone down to the low 30s.
I am 6'3'', 210lbs and the large fits me perfect

Having owned a couple of Arc'teryx pieces already I had already read a lot about the Atom LT. Having tried one on in a store I love how it felt giving me lots of movement and fitting nicely. I just got mine a week or so ago and have used it on its own or as a mid-layer. On its own with a long sleeve underneath I was fine around 0c. I went skiing with a merino base layer and shell over top in -7c weather and the Atom LT as my mid-layer and I was cooking and needed all my vents open. It replaced a fleece that I used and I cannot be happier. Would highly recommend it for being such a versatile jacket.
I am 6'1" 175lbs and the Medium fit me perfectly. Now that there are many different versions out such as the SV etc, I am happy that I went with the LT as the others might not breathe as well and would have been too warm.

I bought the Atom LT jacket to replace my Corvert fleece cardigan as my go to mid layer. I was looking for something a bit warmer, lighter and easier to pack. I'm not certain if the Atom LT is warmer than the fleece or not. I think it is but not significantly. One area where the Atom LT definitely wins is the versatility. This jacket is far better in warm conditions than the fleece. It seems to regulate temperature very well. It also packs up to almost nothing.
I've worn this jacket paired with a good merino base layer and a Beta AR jacket in conditions as cold as -20C with blowing snow. Provided I kept moving around, this combination kept me sufficiently warm. Any colder and I think one would want to look at the Atom AR instead.

I accidentally ordered the jacket instead of the hoody and though I was super bummed in the beginning, I'm glad I made the mistake (I have a million hoodies anyways!).
This jacket is perfect - it's super light and warm and would be a perfect layering piece under a ski jacket. I bought the jacket late in the ski season though and only wore it as a casual jacket to work and a couple times hiking about.
It is water resistant but not waterproof - water beads up on the surface and you can just brush it off! I definitely wouldn't wear this for extended periods in the rain though.
I ordered a size Medium Black and it fits perfectly. The stretchy side panels make the jacket look flattering and you can move about with ease. I've convinced my dad to buy the men's version and he loves it as well!

This jacket is short in the front and long in the back and has slender arms and middle that work great on my slender 140lb frame (I ordered a small). I use this as an every day jacket and adore its light weight and ease of wear. The synthetic material in the sleeves feels nice on your arms and I just don't have any complaints.

I Ski not so much anymore but learned of your products when I was far more active as a skier.
I play golf year round in the midatlantic and have been on a search for a trim fitting supple jacket with enough warmth to walk the course in most any weather. I found it in the Atom.
I'm not sure you want to be know for great golf clothing but the Atom LT sure fits the bill in my mind. The construction allows me to swing without restriction, the sleeve gasket is just perfect and the pockets are nicely put as well. So, in conclusion, its bag on back hands in pockets and away we go.
Thank You

D'une extreme polyvalence!
Isolation synthtique l'avant & au dos reli ensemble par une bande de nylon respirant sur les cots.
L'humidit ne reste pas emprisonn! Les poches sont trs comfortable aussi!
Je l'utilise toute l'anne... Peut tre utilise seule, comme isolant d'une coquille lors de temps frais ou bien en superposition avec d'autres couches par temps froid.
Elle est trs lgerte & facile ranger dans sa propre manche!
En t elle m'accompagne toujours dans le fond de mon sac!
Je l'ai tellement apprcie que j'ai achet le modle sans manche Atom Lt Gilet!

This is my go-to-jacket for everything. It works s a perfect layer for skiing in most of situation for me. It is warm enough to keep skiing for down hill and breathable enough to hike up a little hill for ski touring. I also use this jacket as casual wear and any out door related activities. I worn this as my belay jacket for a chilly day of climbing and camping; this jacket kept me warm as it is highly water and wind resistant. It is an awesome jacket for everything I do!

Used extensively on a recent alpine trek. Love the feel of the material and its light weight, but I was really surprised at the performance. It's incredibly warm. Overall, I'm impressed and will look at other Arc' Teryx products as a result.

Iv taken this jacket hunting, fishing, and on army training, it has always been awesome. Very warm and very comfy. I sometimes wear it as a summer night jacket by itself or layer it with a pac-lite shell when ita a little colder.

I love this jacket. My husband got one and he loves his so much he got me one for Christmas. I use it as a stand alone lightweight jacket and as a mid layer for skiing in cold temperatures. It moves with you like no other. Love the inside pocket for skiing too.
Wish that the ladies model had the stylish color accents that the men's model does. The men's is much better looking IMHO .
Fits well too - a big deal for thinner women in the US who cannot find clothing.

Great breathability, warm on it's own without wind, beads light precip for a short period if you're working hard. I have worn for snowshoeing, xc skiing on its own and it is great for keeping you warm while you are moving. Wore it snowshoeing in -5C with snow for three hours, water beaded nicely for half the trip, but then began to get a bit saturated. That being said, it still kept me completely warm when moving with only a light base layer. I can wear it around town and with only a t-shirt underneath and I start feeling cool around -10C. With a couple layers tho I find it good below that IF there's no wind. The side panels are built for breathability, not wind protection I believe, so if it's windy and cold, put on a shell like you would with most other layering pieces!
I use this over the Atom SV 90% of the time for all but the coldest days and it can be worn for spring and fall as well.

I love the Atom Lt. It fits me perfectly. I am particularly impressed with the
cuffs because my gloves fit nicely over them. I use this jacket as a stand
alone jacket and as a layer under my barn coat when I chop wood. It moves
with me. It is just right.
