Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Delta LT Jacket

This is a lovely jacket and I really wanted to keep it, but I was expecting a blue jacket (reflection) and in fact the colour was closer to green/turquoise. This was really disappointing. I would suggest that either the colour match is improved on your website or you use the colour name in the product detail, eg pale blue, dark green etc

Bought the exosphere colour which is clearly dark navy on the website the colour that came is much lighter greens / grey. How are you supposed to trust your website if the colours are so mismatched you have now sides what you will get. Will return it. Pretty disappointed as this is the first thing I bought from you.

J'aime les vtements Arc'teryx, pour leur coupe, leurs qualits techniques et leurs coloris avant-gardistes. Malheureusement, ils ont oublis les hommes de petites tailles comme moi (5'4", 56 kg). Dommage! Pourtant j'ai un bon budget dpenser... ...ailleurs!!!

Was impressed by the lightweight and stretch performance in the beginning. I quickly realized that is is a very light fleece. It's a bit less than wearing a thermal. It is stylish though so I love wearing it for the outdoors and around town. I live in Israel where it warm in the day during winter, so it is good for places where you might have to take it off and carry. When I was in America in the winter I had no use for it though.

I bought a previous version a number of years ago, was thrilled with it - it was warm, practical, technical and also extremely flattering, and it's still going strong. I have just purchased a replacement and while it's largely the same jacket, the fabric is a touch lighter and elements such as stitching around the chest, borders around the pockets and a border around the hem have all gone - now the jacket has nothing to help it hold its shape. Disappointing for the price.

I bought this as a mid layer for a ski mountaineering trip along the Grand Lui variant of the Haute Route. I needed a flexible layer that would be good for climbing in freezing conditions with enough ventilation for when the sun came out without any need to faff about with layers. It did that job very well - normally with only a merino T shirt under it and a goretex paclite shell when v cold/windy. And it survived 7 days in the mountains of continuous wear. But - the zip doesn't have a catch so it is more than capable of undoing itself whilst climbing up (e.g. Axe/crampons/big pack with skis on it) or skiing down. Arcteryx really need to fix this.

The Delta LT jacket is a good quality fleece and the material is great. Color choices are very nice, my spouse loves the colors in the women's version. However, there are some things that keep me from giving this jacket a full 5 star review. I find there is just a tad too much material around the armpit area that can bunch up under layers. Fleece being fleece, can be a pain to layer over wool baselayers and some 3-layer shells. But the most negative, is the price, it is double what I was able to find for a very comparable fleece jacket. I guess if you are brand loyal or got to have one of the colors or got it for super cheap (like me) it would be great choice. My review is based on the MSRP.

I normally wear a small in Arc'teryx gear. I ordered a small in this jacket but this jacket seems to run much bigger than all my other Arc'teryx gear. I found it to be way too big, almost clownish. I won't be able to wear this without some serious alterations. The sleeves are way to long and I will cut two inches off. The waist looks like it would fit a 36" waist. My stats are 5'6", 140lbs.

The Delta LT Jacket has been around for while, and while I'm overall happy with it, I wish it would get updated to a newer more modern fit (slimmer and longer) like some of the other mid layer models. It's kind of square fitting which makes it feel a bit dated. The design though is great - simple, timeless and functional. I often wear size XS in Arc'teryx product, but I got this one in size S to get 1" extra body length. I'm 157cm tall. It's a good mid layer and I would recommend it to others as long as they are not tall and skinny built - the fit is definitely better suited for shorter and wider body types.

I have given this product 3 stars, not for the quality or the fit, that is great, but the Totally MISLEADING COLOUR on their website. We thought we were getting a bright, orange colour (cinnabar) as portrayed on the photo but when we collected it from store, after ordering online, we received a dull, terracotta, autumn colour. SO DISAPPOINTED! Nothing like the photo! We are huge Arcteryx fans and have always been happy with our purchases but never shall I trust the online representations or your products. Nothing wrong with the quality though.

I got this jacket as a present and although the tags say it is meant for a trim fit, the sizing seem to run way too large for me! Because I cut the tags off without thinking, I'm not able to return it for a size down which is super disappointing. I'm 5'7, 130lb and for the medium I can pull the jacket 6 or more inches away from my body and lots of excessive room in upper arm area. Would've loved to get this in a size that fits to test out its warmth/quality.

I really wanted to love this jacket, especially for the price. It defies physics with its warmth to weight ratio and feels so comfortable I always forget I have it on. It also breathes incredibly well. I run hot and I haven't gotten hot in this so far. The stretch gives me plenty of mobility. It's also the best midlayer piece whether you have a hard shell, soft shell, or even another insulating layer over it. Here's why the 2 stars. I can't recommend this jacket because of its lack of durability. When I first got the jacket the fitment was great. The cuffs were snug against my wrists and the sides conformed with my body. 7 months and 4 washes later it looks like an overstretched rubber band that can't snap back into its original shape. The cuffs are already getting stretched out to the point they're to the base of my thumb and the body is completely loose. I'm also already experiencing a tiny bit of pilling. As a note, I only use ReviveX and Nikwax products to wash my outdoor gear in a front load washer on delicate cycle. I've owned another microfleece longer than the Delta and that looks new compared to the Delta, even though I've worn it an equal amount of times. Until Arc'teryx can figure out a way to increase the durability I would try some of their other fleece options.

The jacket Very thin and soft, a light layer. However, the arms were quite long (size large), and the fabric has the 'checkered' texture to it that I didn't enjoy. The arm pocket is really odd, not sure what it's for? Given this jacket is more for layering, that pocket will get covered up and be inaccessible. I was interested to check it out, but too expensive and ill-fitting (on me) to keep around. I ended up returning it.

I was looking forward to trying this revised version, after having had positive experiences with the previous versions of the Delta LT pullover and jacket. Unfortunately the fit (in a medium) is now completely unwearable for a taller slim build. While the notes state that the fit is longer, all my comparisons show it is slightly shorter, and it has become so boxy that it flares out tremendously from my back and looks silly. The previous jacket was not as trim fitting or long as the pullover, yet looked natural and gave some space for layers underneath. It's unfortunate as I'm sure all the other positives such as warmth apply, and I do like some of the updates such as the trim on the bottom hem and ends of the sleeves, which likely enhances durability. Seems Arcteryx is on the path of catering for an average North American build rather than the athletic cuts which built their market share to this point.

Great fleece for light activities but not durable under a backpack. I was disappointed , after one use on a 13 mile hike with a light 15 pound backpack,the material under the arms and on the back of the jacket became matted and lost it's integrity. The material can't handle friction from a backpack but the jacket has a great fit. I only recommend it for casual use.

Produit renvoyer taille S trop vraiment trop large la taille et aux paules pour 1m70 65 kgs. Dommage c'tait pour un Trail d'hiver. Je renvoie. Pas de XS ? Si quelqu'un a ce pb et peut m'orienter vers autre veste (chaude et surtout respirante je suis ouvert :)

This seems like a great jacket it's soft and light and the material blocks wind well. It's advertised as having a "Trim Fit" but my Small is extremely large, e.g. baggy and voluminous, especially around the waist and midsection. I was hoping for a more svelte, form-fitting underlayer or around-town jacket, but given the current size, I'm not sure I'll get much wear out of it.

I love Arc'teryx but sorry to say after only 1 month light use both my new Deltas shows excessive piling. I expect more from Arc'teryx

I am a regular user of Arcteryx clothing. This is my first review because I'm disappointed in the No Slip Zip advertised on the Delta LT jacket. This is inaccurate, I have worn the garment twice, once on a light run and the second walking. On both occasions the zip continually slips down and is such an irritation that the top has been exiled to the back of my wardrobe. I have written to Arcteryx relating to this issue, but they aren't interested. It's worth considering that whilst Arcteryx is a premium brand their service is terrible, as no one responds, phone numbers don't work and they take for ever to refund returns.

I purchased a mens Delta Jacket, color Exosphere, based on the photo on the website. The jacket I received was actually a faded blue color, not at all like the Exosphere color represented in the photos. I have since returned the item.

This jacket is so unflattering. I have a slim build and ordered size small. It is baggy in the upper arms and through the bust and shoulders yet hugs nicely around the waist and tummy. My third arcteryc jacket - so my expectations were high - very disappointing.
