Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Solano Hoody

I'm a huge fan of the Skyline Shirts. Have been wearing them since 2017. Multi purpose. Great for any occasion and made with the best fabric.

Bought LS and SS love them both!! great design, beautiful fit, love the zipper for securing items and love the minimalistic look

I bought this recently. It is like having a backpacking shirt that can wick moisture but still looks like a going out for dinner shirt. Silky smooth.

These shirts are comfortable, cool when hot and very warm with just an undershirt. Great colors and fit. Snaps are, for me a saving grace. I cannot do buttons but no problem with these. My only wish is there was a bit less of the polyester feel but small issue for a great shirt. Did not feel it after putting it on.

This is my first Skyline and I'm really enjoying the fit and finish of this shirt. The material is very comfortable and the fit is just right, maybe a bit on the looser side for Arc'teryx. It would be a great shirt for travel, with its comfort and zip pocket for your passport, and its comfortable, light-weight and quick-drying material makes it ideal for summer hikes. An interesting thing I also noticed is the fabric doesn't retain smells like some of the other polyester pieces I own. After a night on the town I hung it to air out and in the morning it smelled like new.

I've owned a lot of these shirts over the years. A few of them I've used for multi-month thru-hikes. They're perfect for that. They are pretty thin, which is nice for warm/hot weather. The snap buttons make venting super easy and you don't have to worry about ripping a button out. They're durable and I've never had one rip or wear through under my backpack, though a mouse did eat a good part of one once. They just look good, they have an uncanny ability to not get dingy/stained even after hundreds of miles of use and infrequent washing. I've gotten many comments from people wondering how my shirt is so clean compared to theirs. I slightly prefer the old style pocket with the flap, it looks better. I do find it funny that people complained so much about the new zipper in the reviews, when the very original version of this shirt had a zipper! Also, the plastic snaps are actually an upgrade IMO. They are functionally identical to the metal ones and work great, no problems. The metal snaps on the old ones could get really hot if you're hiking on a hot day in the sun in desert environments, enough to irritate your chest. I do think the colors for this year are a little weak. Sky blue from a few years ago was a really great color, I should have bought more.

Great update on the shirt though understandable that people miss the original, I have 8 of them in various colors and the designer(s) should get an award Still love the updated version, have 3 now and will order3 more Maybe should make both and sell the original as retro, offer new colors yearly to keep things interesting Both are great all round versatile clothing and especially good for travel

I am 5'10" & 205 lbs. Not fat but not skinny. The Large fits nice & is very flattering. Usually wear a X Large but I have had other Arc'teryx shirts that are Large & I am very happy with the fit.

As a first time buyer of the Skyline shirt, I wasn't sure what to expect based on the reviews. Luckily, all my concerns were put to bed when I tried this shirt on. It fit so well as a 6'4" man with a long torso (bought XXL). It was so light in weight and very breathable. I just found my new favorite style of shirt!

The Skyline shirt has a distinctive design. I like the hidden buttons and zip breast pocket and trim fit. I bought mine to wear in my hospital job. Its cool and drys very quickly. Take care when ironing, l would not iron directly onto the material just to be on the safe side.. I have spotted this shirt being worn on an American TV program about the paranormal by one of the team, (physicist) in the series!

At 47 I stepped away from my norms and this was the first product I purchased from the company. As an outdoor enthusiast and office Exec. I love clothing that I can use all around... very cost effective. I'm willing to pay more for the versatility in look and fabric tech. I found it here. I've used it for work, hiking and going out to dinner. The material and fit are great. I'm seeing that I missed out on a previous model, but I do have to say that I'm a fan of this one. You have earned another customer.

Supurb shirt that I use for the office, smart, comfortable fit and no need to iron.

My go-to hiking shirt. Silky, light, and very comfortable. Washes and dries easily on camping trips. Looks sharp but a bit too technical for the office.

I own a bunch of these in black (short sleeve and long sleeve). It seems like a lot of people are complaining about the new style, cut and zipper. Personally I find the new style an upgrade all around. It's more contemporary. I wear a lot of Veilance and I feel this shirt has DNA from that line. My rating is a solid 5 stars. The only thing I would change if I was designing the next iteration would be to lose the front pocket entirely. For me I use pant or jacket pockets and never use a chest pocket on a shirt.

I love this new revision, zip or not! I bought my first SKyline shirt over four or five years ago. I now own five short sleeves and seven long sleeves Skyline shirts. I wear them primarily for work. I love them so much that I regularly wear them for a night on the town. I work for a large software company as a technical sales specialist and deal with Fortune 500 companies. I have no hesitation in wearing my Skyline shirts while visiting my customers, and I even wear them with a suit as never wear a tie. Regularly, I check to see if Arc'teryx has come out with new colors, and when they do, without hesitation, I buy another one. So, I just purchased both a short sleeve and a long sleeve Skyline shirts with the zip! Yes, I read all the one star ratings about the zip. I do not mind the zip at all, and I WILL wear my new Skyline shirts without any hesitation or shame. The zip is not the only change. Arc'teryx also changed the snaps, which are now bigger and made of some plastic. I am happy with this change as they are now much easier to unsnap. With the previous, slimmer model, I am always afraid to tear the shirt while unsnapping them. Time will tell, but so far, I am happy with the new snaps. Overall, the fit is similar to previous years. My only gripe is the lack of colors with the long sleeves - e.g., red, a vivid green, but it is not a big deal. I would give ten stars if I could. I love them, zip or not!!!

One of the slickest shirts in the outdoor clothing market. The fabric is soft with an adequate 2-way stretch. When wet it dries extremely fast like a performance shirt. I bought the shirt in 2 colors and wear them all summer long. After 2 years of use, I have not noticed any damage to the fabric. The design idea with the hidden buttons makes this shirt able to blend with casual/business casual outfits in addition to travel. It packs very small and getting rid of wrinkles is easy without ironing.

I grabbed 3 before they're gone in my size, I purchase the new colors yearly and worth every penny. These are my travel shirts for warm climates, goes well with jeans, khakis and dress shorts. Fits well, packs light for my carry on, wrinkle-free is a plus. Great looking shirt, I always get a compliment.

I bought a second recently and find myself reaching for them first after laundry day. Liked it enough to buy a third over the holidays as a gift for my brother.
