I bought this a couple of months ago, used three times in snowy environment, very satisfied both for comfort and protection. Veny nice as a look, it fits perfectly to me (180cm x 79 kg = soze M). I did not suffer due to poor breathability as I read in some comments; in my opinion everything very good but missing stretches on cuffs.

Best softshell jacket period. Use it for all my mountain expeditions. Warm, breathable, cuts wind, and excellent fit. Also extremely durable - the first one I ever bought over 10 years old is still going strong!

I've had several versions from the 4 way stretch power shield versions, with arm pocket and those more like the current version. All were good pieces just right for cool crag days to cold urban environments. Size up for heavier layers or smaller as a shoulder weather insulator.

Purchased this jacket over month ago, and have used it for everything from cycling and nordic skiing to snowboarding. I have found it ideal for many active pursuits. The secret is picking the right mid-layer. When cycling, the jacket is perfect with just a heavy wool / light fleece mid layer. Hood is large enough to pull up over a bike helmet, yet still allows good visibility. The red color is a bonus, when riding in a town full of distracted drivers. On its own, the jacket is perfect for nordic skiing. Good length, plenty of stretch, yet very breathable. Nice to have the hood when you stop too. Two weeks ago, when temps were in the teens, I wore the jacket snowboarding with a light weight down shirt as my mid-layer and stayed comfortable the entire day. The cuff design is nice too - simple, yet functional. Ample room if you choose under cuff gloves (cycling/nordic skiing) or an over-cuff mitt (skiing/snowboarding). I found the sizing to be accurate - I am 5'11" and 175 lbs and the large is ideal. Not too large on its own, but still allows room for a lightweight fleece / down jacket underneath.

Ordered for my husband for Christmas, accidentally ordered a large instead of his usual size medium but glad I did because it fits perfectly, keeps him warm and protects him from the rain. seems durable enough for him to wear when he's working outside or on his car without worries of tearing or snagging the material. very handsome jacket.

Bought it a couple of weeks ago and took it for a walk ice climbing in the Canadian Rockies. Very comfortable, warm and great fitting. Winds of over 60km/h but did not feel anything. Never felt cold. Great product!!! To have a few more options in colours would be good.

disclaimer: ex-Arc'teryx employee, current PRO-program working in the industry truly an all around piece. if it's not a downpour outside, you'll find me in this - climbing, mountain biking, hiking, skiing, light running, etc, in the shoulder seasons here in the PNW, and i even find myself reaching for this even when things turn clammy in the summer it breathes, it moves without restriction, it sheds light rain, the hood swallows a helmet but also cinches tight over your noggin when not wearing one, multiple front pockets store everything you may need and nothing you don't, fleece lining on the inside is oh so comfy fit - I'm around 6"/182cm, with a long torso and arms. I typically size into large for casual clothes, medium for performance fit, and medium is great, rather tight for me. if i can be critical on one point, it's that i find it difficult to layer underneath thick, but as someone that runs warm, for anything i want to pick up this jacket for - that's not usually necessary.

2 weeks with some pretty trying weather. The jacket performed as expected. My expectations are high for Arc'Teryx and I have yet to be disappointed.

I bought the predecessor of the Gamma Hoody in 2016 and have worn it hard for every conceivable purpose. From the first crisp fall day to the last cool day of spring, this rocks for ice climbing, hiking, trail work, days-in town, and everything in between. Due to the fit its great to layer, but its cozy enough that I can throw it over a short sleeve and still be comfortable. I will be 100% replacing it with another the instant I have to, but I hope there is a repair in its future when the time comes, because it has come to be like that childhood emotional support item that you couldn't get rid of! Also the Arc'teryx colorways always ROCK! Pick something bright to be a statement piece!

The MX really does stand for mixed weather. Just did a few weeks in Norway with this jacket and it became my go to. It handled light rain well, warm, and wind proof. A GREAT all around must have.

This is my go to jacket for our ever changing canadian seasons. I've had this specific style for years amd it lasts which is why I'm trying to get newer models whenever possible to have a life long quality product.

Really warm and comfortable for the cool seasons, also it is water and wind-repellent. For the size, I am 165 pounds, M is ok fit, but if you prefer more rooms, go 1 size up.

I have had this soft shell for couple of years now and it is my go to piece for skinning up the skin track on cold days and layering underneath a hard shell for the descent down. The shape and cut makes it look great on its own, but also for layering underneath hard shells or down jackets when it gets really cold out. Being a soft shell it breaths terrific for the ascent and repels moisture and water droplets.
