Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Atom LT Hoodie

I bought this jacket about 4 years back and it's still holding up great. While cold temperatures are subjective, this jacket has been my go to from anywhere between +5 and -20 degrees. It's great for walking around the city, short errand trips with a car as well as short hikes. I commute to work by bus and it's not overkill with the heater cranked. I'm 5' 4 at about 155lbs and the sleeve and jacket length are great. Normally it's pretty hard to find a decent fitting jacket for fall/winter. This works great with a shell for most of winter in Edmonton, past -20 degrees I'll switch to something like my Therme Parka.

By far my best Arc'teryx purchase. The Atom LT fits really well on me. It is very comfortable and the color looks great. Obviously the price is really high but this a jacket that, with good care, will last you for years.

firstly my background , so having been and alternative/goth for for decades, i also been into camping and hiking, yep in alternative gear, so at 46 now 49 i decided it was about time to change my look and thought the fact i'm outdoors all the time let go down that route for decent warm outdoor stuff 1st name that popped into my mind as the best out there was rab think out of all the styles they suited me best, so hours and hours of you tube reviews later, i see a review on arcteryx atom lt hoody, immediately is was like " now that looks way more my like my kinda style i been looking for" several reviews and hour later i was like " rab who????" i must admit the price was shocking and u couldn't understand why they could cost so much, but kicked myself thinking, ok lets go with that to start with then and see so it arrived in post and i took it out feeling how light it was and instant thoughts omg i really have made a mistake here thinking how difficult will be to send back i wonder luckly it was a frosty day, keeping the labels on i put it on and again thought, way way too light walked outdoors and was , " no way, na.! really, how???? how can it be so light and so warm" this took me the rest of the day to get over, how could something so light be so warm under i had a t shirt and cotton hoddy and was about minus 4 degrees, no wind i wish now i had never bought this jacket sometimes, as now i have been changing over everything to arcteryx brand, costing me a fortune, but i have never found such and exceptional brand in my life that is so comfy, well fitting, does everything it says its going to, awesome quality in everything they do so far now i have added some pictures of some bubbling on the jacket on one shoulder and some on from torso on side, ultimately my own fault with a cheap rough backpack "now only use osprey packs though have my eye in a arcteryx one" when i 1st had it, but it had otherwise stood up to the test of time and other wise looks really tidy still and works as it always did so many time i actually get too hot wear this and is on and off, however i think i would buy the atom ar as well at some point for those extra cold windy days,, side vents on lt are great in mild cold weather , but when i'm coastal walking on the wilds of the Cornish north coast sometimes the cold will creep in, but we are talking that windy your scared to get to close to edge of the cliffs anyway haha this jacket is a super way to get into your 1st approach to this brand, but beware your be going to AA meeting before you know it aka "arcteryx anonymous " for the addiction your get hope this help you if you on the cliff wondering if to jump off and spend your cash, you won't regret it i promise the abuse i gave this coat has been down to me, rough straps, and stuffing this coat in cracks in the car when out, if you take better care of it than me i think your have a way better condition coat than i have made it, but then this proves to me how it really does take it, next one i get i will be more careful with no i know how good they are this is an update review from when i 1st got it

Bought this jacket for general wear in Canadian spring & fall. Warm, breathable, stylish, and functional, this jacket has exceeded expectations so far. Was also great for golfing on cool mornings. Works well under a shell in cool, windy conditions too. Highly recommended!

I have been eyeing this coat for over a year, and I continued to tell myself my other coats would do, I could use a sweater etc. Most of my coats are 800+ down and have no use in the shoulder season, so finally I gave in and got the coat! I battled between black and Pipe dream and I am so happy I got Pipe! Perfect fitting, super comfy, lightweight and just wonderful! I have gotten so many comments on it and its been great for my adventures and will be for many more! The only comment I have is that the arms are a bit short on me so I had to stay at an XL when I could have been a Large, so the body is a tad baggy but I can use that for layering.

I use this jacket for just about every adventure into the mountains. Whether it be rock climbing, skiing, mountaineering, mountain running, or simply hiking, this jacket is either on my body or in the top of my pack. I like that it is not down fill since I have a few areas where the outer layer is cut from use and I am happy that down is not pouring out of it. I like the main front zipper because it does not get caught in the fabric of the jacket, especially when I have winter gloves on. I appreciate the cuffs on this jacket because they do a good job of keeping cold air out. One down side is that this jacket is not as packable as a down jacket of similar size. I also wish there was one more interior pocket for smaller objects like iPhone, keys, lip balm, etc. Finally the back of the hood draw string is a little hard to find when I have gloves on but I appreciate its function.

I've had my Atom Hoody for 6 years and I find myself reaching for it more than any other jacket. Whether as a layer for spring skiing, a day in the boulders or while traveling, it's served me well throughout the years.

I love the Atom hoody so much. It's an incredible mid layer, or just regular jacket in milder weather. It has great feeling fabric, it's stylish, and good for all types of outdoor sports. I pretty much wear it everyday. It's not a waterproof layer, but fits well underneath a shell. I size up in order to layer comfortably.

I carry this jacket with me year round. It is great in the summer on cooler windy days or under a rain jacket on a rainy day. In the winter it makes a great mid-layer. It is light, packs down small.

Great jacket. Fab colour. Fast service for delivery

Light and confortable. My wife like it th moment she try it.

I love this jacket, is light weight yet warm enough and comfortable easy to pack I use it for casual, hiking and trekking.

This is my 4th Atom Hoody jacket purchase. I will continue to buy these jackets for as long as they are made. Lightweight, warm, the great layering piece. All in all, perfection.

I love my atom! This has become my go-to perfect layer for all things! THis jkacket feels magically insulating. I have worn it on it's own in negative temps and still kept me warm, it's also breathable enough to vent your heat when moving or working hard. I love it so much I bought a second with no hood for better layering under my ski shell. you will not be disappointed owing one of these!

Favorite Arcteryx purchase by far. Lightweight yet plenty warm

Use it all the time, on its own during spring and fall. Perfect as under layer during snowboard season.

My favourite Arc'teryx product. As a stand alone piece or for layering, this hoody is great. Warm and comfortable! I have a few in different colours and wear them all of them! They pack well, and great for travelling.

Over the last 10+ years I've owned 4 of these jackets and purchased 2 more as gifts. I absolutely LOVE the fit, versatility, comfort and quality of this product. It's the perfect layering piece or throw on a go. It's replaced all of my cotton hoodies and fleece. Absolutely worth it!

Very light, warm and breathable, nice subdued colour, I'm very happy of the purchase

Perfect for my morning runs in the colder weather and also perfect mid layer or by itself when camping and hiking in the single digits. I love this jacket that I got the heavyweight one for winte. I love the colour and the lightness for what I do

The Atom hoody is awesome. It's comfortable, keeps me warm, it's breathable, and fits nicely. Would recommend.

This is my go-to jacket for all outdoor activities n it is so versatile. I wear it hiking in colder weather or underneath my ski jacket as an additional layer. I would have one in every color if I could!

Great hoody as a base keeps me warm but I can also keep cool as it's super breathable I wear underneath my beta LT as is a great fitting product

These are the best! Soft, durable and come in great colours. They are perfect size wise - great over a tee or a bulky sweater. Reliable in the windy and wet weather!

So comfy and so versatileI take my atom with me on almost every trip!
