Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Delta LT Zip Neck

To echo comments below, the 2019 revision is dramatically shorter as well as boxier than the previous versions. This falls in line with the changes to the jacket version, despite both being described as having a longer fit. If you have a tall/slim build, this won't work for you; if you're on the shorter and stockier end, then it may fit better than before. While the fit is a real disappointment, the design does look much better with the logo moved to the sleeve vs front, cleaned up seams and stitching, and new trim around the collar, hem and cuffs. Overall it looks more modern and sleek, though I see no need for a sleeve pocket on a piece like this. To illustrate I compared both new and old in the photos below. The new is roughly 1.5" shorter in a medium and barely covers my belt, and that's with my arms down. The previous version comfortably covers my front pockets. Hope some changes can be made for 2020. In the meantime I'm going to get another previous season Delta before they disappear.

Been wearing these for years. Ether best colour yet, with bright blue next. Let's have pink!

Great spring or summer weight fleece. Fit is great, especially for someone who has long arms.

It is thin, light, soft, comfortable and warm great for daily wear and awesome for outdoor activities

I've worn this as a standalone, mid-layer and outer (during dry weather) layer and it always keeps me warm and comfy! The fleece is really soft against your skin and is much more breathable than other fleeces I've had in the past. It's been such a great purchase, I'll likely be buying another one in a different colour for next hiking/camping season.

Extremely happy with this purchase. I wear it almost daily as an additional layer around the house. It's lightweight and perfect for the cooler fall weather. As a layer, it's thin and fits extremely well over a base layer, and under a jacket when heading outdoors. I would definitely recommend this and would seriously consider getting a second one to alternate.

Light, warm, and comfortable. Fits looser around the midsection than the delta mx.

Excellent weight for daily use, fits well, good color.

An excellent piece. Warm while also light and breathable. Doesn't have the same bulk for other polar-type fleeces which will be great when taken as an extra layer on backcountry trips. I had previously tried on the full zip in the same size (small) but found the regular fit a bit too loose. A little extra room for some long sleeved under layers is ok but it hung a bit sloppy. The trim fit here is much better though with a tidge of extra if you wanted to put it over a base layer and a button up. It seems like arc should add an extra small for these. I'm 5'5 and 145 lbs and not exactly tiny. Anyone smaller I think would find this too baggy. Overall great and highly recommended for daily wear and life outdoors.

I have an older version of this and it finally kicked the bucket....I had to buy another one......so sad, but so glad......I just love this product. I use it as a base layer, an outer layer, work layer, from the car to work-out layer......I just use it for everything....it cleans easy, takes the abuse and fits me. it covers my butt when I lean over and I am a 34DDDD(G) and I am covered all over. Which reminds me I need to buy another one......

I have a few of these in the full zip version which is also VG. My favorite color is dark navy which in Arc'teryx speak = Kingfisher. Not sure why Kingfisher is only available in half zip? Love the understated logo when wearing in a business casual setting. Could be a little more slippery when putting it on over a dress shirt but that's a minor complaint.

A great top with exceptional warm to weight . This is the 2nd one I've bought as the first was so good I got one in another colour.

Got this in black for my trip to Colorado. Love it. Light weight, great fitting and keeps you warm. Bought this for my trip to Colorado. Might buy one more

Been using this as a mid layer on my last 3 ski trips. Perfect weight and warmth.

This is exactly what I was looking for in a mid-layer for shoulder weather. I'm using this under my Beta AR shell for a great combination of light weight, wind and weather proof. On mild day, I just wear it by itself

This is my 3rd Delta fleece and probably my most worn mid layer. Super comfy, casual, not over branded, warm and great for walking, golf, travel, gardening and general living. Can't really do without it. Really recommend it. Great little zip pocket on the sleeve for a credit and cash.

This top feels comfortable, light-weight, and looks great while doing so! Best part is that the torso and arm lengths are finally appropriate for my height (5'6)! Feels like a hoodless and length appropriate Aptin!

Color looks good. A bit thinner than I was expecting but it feels like it can still provide decent warmth when layering.

Wanted to refresh my collection of fleeces that have grown a bit tired over the years. This new version is exactly what I expected; super comfortable and a great fit. It's great for dry fall days and as a base layer during the winter. I often wear mine around the house with my pajamas on lazy weekends during the winters. The sleeve pocket is a welcome addition to the previous versions I own that are sans storage. Kingfisher color looks great too. Timeless, will buy another in a few years.

I bought one of these and loved it so much I bought another. Love these tops, they are great over a t-shirt or next to your skin. I wear mine for workplace casual, travelling, and hiking.

Super pratique et abordable, un passe partout pratique, chaud, confortable, respirant et lger. J' en ai 5 de diffrentes couleurs.

I ordered this after seeing it in-store, but they didn't have have my size. It's very comfortable, and I find the weight perfect for me as I tend to run a little warm but still want a long sleeve shirt in the fall/winter. Addressing a couple of complaints I saw online, to me the arm zip pocket is just a style statement - I can't see ever using it for anything - but I prefer it there than in front. It adds something different and gives the front a cleaner look. As for length, I do get what people are saying, but it worked out perfectly for me. It's a great untucked length, and doesn't look as sloppy as a longer length would. When I reach up the shirt bottom comes up to belt level, which is fine for me (and I'll likely wear a light t-shirt underneath when hiking). For sizing, I'm 5'11" and 180 lbs. and the large fits perfectly. I'm still waiting to see how it holds up after a few washings, but will wash it inside out on a delicate cycle and not put in the dryer.

Only buy this if you run hot. It has some warmth but is super breathable, so in a weird way I actually feel cool when wearing it. If you run hot it'd be perfect. If not I'd recommend something more like the delta mx. That being said, it is well constructed, looks good, pairs nicely with a vest, and does not pill much. It also feels good against the skin. In fact it was an impulse buy. I was looking at something else and tried the delta lt on just for fun and knew instantly I was going to buy it. The softness/pliability combination was like butter! I can't dock it any stars because it is exactly what it says it is, light warmth. With emphasis on the light.
