Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Atom AR Hoody

This cloth turns out to be one of my favorite daily work clothes from Monday to Friday during winter time. Love it.

J'ai achet cette veste Hong Kong et en est t plus que satisfaite . Lgre et chaude . Parfaite dans des conditions de climat humide puisque grce au tissu synthtique elle ne retient pas l'humidit . Sche trs vite. En ai rachet une en France en boutique d'une autre couleur .Jai achet aussi sur le site une veste Atom LT . Mais celle A.R. reste plus polyvalente .

bought the Atom AR after using the Atom LT for holidays in iceland, norway and sweden this year. Definitely a step up in insulation and wind resistance from the LT. Works great for our daily dog walking in the park, even when the wind is whistling. It's worked well from +10c to -19c so far this year. Having a warm hood is always a plus on the windy days.

This is the best jacket I have ever purchased. It is warm and wind resistant as well as light and compact.

Ich trage diese Jacke nun schon einige Jahre. Sie hat mir insbesondere im Winter gute Dienste geleistet. Beim Wandern bei Temperaturen kanpp unter Null Grad perfekt. Trotz ihrer Leichtigkeit ist sie durchaus robust.

This is my everyday hoody for walking around Chicago. Surprisingly warm, can sometimes only wear this on cold Chicago days. Only downside is the material is thin and would rip easily if worn as an out layer when working. But it's not really designed as a work jacket so that's why I'm saying 5/5

I live in this jacket: In spring and autum I wear it solitair. Especially during my work as a medical forensic at night. In winter, under my skijacket: keeps me warm , even when its -20 gr celcius!.

On a winter vacation, this jacket kept me warm, was easy to pack, and was lightweight enough to be functional. One consideration is that in really cold or windy weather, a shell was almost required to stay warm enough because the mid-layer didn't block the wind that effectively on its own. I also am between sizes, and found that I needed the larger size to fit my hips comfortably. Otherwise, I love it!

This jacket is great in all different weather and wide ranges of temperatures great all around jacket

Used this jacket during Mt. Washington, NH hike. worked as expected. Kept me dry all the time during the hike.

It's amazing! I was a little hesitant due to its price tag, but it's so worth it. It is so warm, While skiing I wear it will my Patrol Insulated Coat. Definitely buy it.

If you're thinking of getting one of these then don't, just buy it.Since buying this most of my other fleece jackets and soft shells have become redundant.I wear it all the time and it seems to work well on all occasions,from cool summer/autumn nights to cold winter days even down to -1or-2 (That's just around town even lower if you're being active going up and down the mountain)Looks great to wear around town and on the mountains.Took it with me on every 3 peaks training sessions last winter,every weekend from January to April (either Snowdon or Scarefell) and then on the challenge itself.I have left it a while to write this review (3 Years) and it still looks great and works well.Fits well under my Zeta hard shell for those really wet days but has a good resistance to those wet drizzley days without the hard shell also performs well in extremely windy conditions. I really rate arcteryx gear and this is no exception can't recommend it enough.

Was looking to upgrade from the Patagonia Down Sweater that I've had for two years so I wanted something breathable and versatile that I could wear alone without any other layers but a shirt. After I spent a stupid amount of time reviewing jackets from various companies I decided on the Atom AR. I never leave reviews on anything but this jacket compelled me to do so, it is so incredibly light and was everything I was looking for in a stand alone jacket. It is as warm as any down jacket without having to worry about the stitching or feathers leaking out of the jacket or getting it wet and worrying about ruining the jacket. I wear this jacket alone in weather ranging from the 20's-70's (degrees F) and I have no complaints. It is definitely worth the price tag and I would highly recommend this piece to anyone I know. I am 5'7" and ~150lbs and the medium fits very snuggly. I could have gone with the large as well but I like a tighter fit on my jackets. There is a reason why this jacket is so highly rated, 5/5 for sure.

I got this jacket for my birthday, and it has rapidly become my go-to outer layer for the British autumn. After opening the box I was amazed at how lightweight it was, and if I'm honest, a little dubious about the reviews saying how warm it was. I immediately put it to the test by going on a photo excursion along the North Sea coast before sunrise. Standing around for a couple of hours with almost no movement to generate any heat, I was nice and warm. The weather wasn't especially cold but there was a biting wind that brought the temperature down. The jacket is so lightweight that I sometimes forget I'm wearing it, and indeed just yesterday I spent the entire day at work wearing it, mainly because I forgot to take it off. Not too warm, for a classroom, not too cold standing on top of an exposed cliff! For a added warmth I would wear my Kyanite fleece underneath. This should do me until it's cold enough to break out the down jacket.

This jacket is lightweight and warm. Perfect for winter travel.

I don't understand what they were thinking when they decided to exclude grey colour for this jacket this time. Totally against it own revenue, I am sure.

Parfaitement isolante et chaude . Se range facilement dans un sac dos . Retient moins l humidit que les modles en duvet .

This is an awesome jacket. It's lightweight, durable, and super warm. Great for everyday wear under my shell in rural Alaska where it gets as cold as -50F on a typical winter day.

You just feel it accumulate your heat. It's so comforting. This is an amazing product. It kind of stole the show, i wear my hard shell a lot less now. It's windproof and it works well. It does not only protect you from the wind but also from it's cooling effect. I wear this jacket alone anywhere from -5 degrees and up, no problem if you're being active. It's water resistant. I've been outside in a light-moderate rain for the past 2 hours and It dried on the spot, didn't leak. I was totally dry. Perfect for people who have warmer blood. If you tend to always be cold you might need a thicker jacket. As I'm rarely immobile in the cold, and walk quickly (so i keep myself warm) it's a perfect fit for me. Some people mentioned the insulation becoming quickly flat where the pressure points are.. I've had mine for at least 6 months and I wore it pretty much everyday carrying my (heavy) backpack around all the time, I can't say I've noticed anything on that matter. Again, amazing product.

I have always been told how great the Atom LT is, but for some reason I don't find myself wearing it as much as I wear the AR. I tend to run cold, but find this jacket to be great on most mild winter days. It is great for hiking and as a mid-layer for snow-shoeing. I am tall (5/10") and weight 130lbs, with long arms and torso. and have a hard time finding sleeve lengths to be sufficient. The Atom AR is longer than the Atom LT and therefore fits me better. I ended up purchasing one for my boyfriend, and he loves it, too (though he had an issue with the durability of the inside pocket zipper).

I upgraded from the Atom LT to the Atom AR and wow, what a big difference! I'm a small athletic build and needed a little bit more warmth for the dry cold winter months in Nevada USA. The awesome part is I still feel as if I'm wearing the Atom LT hoody as far as lightness and comfort. So far, this jacket is my number one all around jacket for every activity. So glad I made this purchase and would recommend this jacket to anyone!

This has now become my go-to jacket for pretty much everything. I've skied in it, skinned up in it, drank way too much coffee in it, sat watching movies in it...I have yet to sleep in it but I'm sure that will come sometime soon.

Ok. Let me start by saying I'm not one to write reviews. I bought this jacket two years ago (impulse purchase) on a trip to Whistler; and I never looked back. I wear this for everything. I often joke that it came with a thermostat because it's great for cold weather and mild weather. This thing is OUTSTANDING. On heavy alpine days, I wear it underneath my Beta AR (another amazing piece of Arcteryx gear) and am toasty warm/dry. It's also packable. Folds down very tight and packs itself neatly into it's own hood. My wife and daughter recently went to Scotland/Ireland and the Atom AR Hoody (Women's) was the only coat they brought. One tip though, for Acrteryx: Please make this exact jacket with an integrated "light" outer shell and you'd have the perfect everyday winter jacket for those sloppy Pacific Northwest days.
