Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Laina Sweater

This has become my go to sweater. I find it to be extremely comfortable and versatile. I wear it casually and can also be comfortable going to a nice lunch or dinner in it. It washes well and still looks great. No shrinkage. I have received many compliments while wearing it. I have purchased it in two colors.

I now have 2 of these sweaters - they are wonderful. They are the perfect weight and if it is a little colder then a simple long-sleeved undershirt or base layer is perfect. They are not bulky at all, look nice can wear for casual or even on camera for WFH.

This is a beautiful and lightweight sweater. But don't be surprised that it performs great when it comes to warmth. Unfortunately, I ordered my usual size in S and it's too big. I will be exchanging/ordering size XS. Can't wait!

I absolutely love this sweater. I hesitated spending so much at first, but not once I put it on! It is so comfortable.... I don’t want to take it off. I got it in an XL, since I wanted it oversized. I’m 5’10 and weigh 155, its long enough in the sleeves and length. Love love love!

I only got this sweater a week ago and I've already ordered another. I sized up because I wanted the back to cover my behind so I could wear it more like a tunic. Really cozy but feels tough. I wear it around the house, to the climbing gym over leggings, out to dinner over a long dress, anywhere and everywhere. Wish there were more colors!

I have 2 turtleneck & 2 crew versions of this sweater - they are as pictured & priced. The symbiome is a pretty olive tunic. The material is light, soft & warm. It does fit large. It washes well & doesn't itch.

LOVE this top, and the color Whiskey Jack Heather. May buy another, but I haven't experienced the snag problem yet so am thinking about it. I do wish it was made from recycled poly and I'm trying to be more conscious of the environmental footprint of my purchases, but I'll keep it for long enough (probably years and years) that I accept buying virgin poly. I love the cut of the neck... not too tight, not floppy.

Comprado como regalo. Ha sido un acierto en color, estilo... El tejido es muy suave y de calidez moderada, ideal como segunda capa para tiempo fro. La talla tambin se corresponde con la habitual talla M de Arc'teryx.

Finally found the perfect top to wear both indoors and outside in chilly PA weather. I can throw on my arcteryx hoodie over my Liana sweater when running outside to feed the ducks, chickens, or letting out the dogs. If I'm outside for extended length of time I add a thin layer underneath my sweater and use my hoodie as my outer layer or even add a shell if it's windy.

Love this sweater! I bought it last year in the black sapphire and loved it so much that I wanted another - but it sold out online and throughout most of the US. This year, I bought the whiskey jack heather and am wearing it right now. It definitely runs looser and bigger than most arcteryx clothing. I am usually a S, but sometimes a M in the more fitted items - in this, I wear an XS. I usually wear it with jeans, but last year, I threw it on with skinny pants and heels and wore it on Christmas Eve. Great item of clothing! I wish it came in more colors.

I love this sweater so much that I now have three, Whiskey Jack, Pegasus and Adesine. The fit, although boxy, is very flattering and comfortable to wear. It looks great with jeans or tight fitting pants. The fabric is very soft and drapes nicely. I like how the neck folds softly and doesn't stand up. These will be my new go to sweaters for the winter.

purchased two Laina Sweaters (Black Sapphire, Merbau) at the end of season after wearing my Laina Cardigan daily through the Winter. the sweater is even cozier than the cardigan with a high funnel neck. extremely soft fabric and comfortable, relaxed, yet flattering fit. purchased the same size in both the sweater and cardigan. fit is more important in the sweater due to the stitching in the shoulders. looking forward to the new grey colours coming in Fall 2019.

The higher price is justified by the quality of this "fleece". It's not your standard fluffy fabric. It's smooth to the touch, beautifully finished, and feels breathable. I am often between a medium and a large in this type of top, and ordered the large. I could just as easily fit into a medium, but I kept the one I received, so I will be able to layer under it. The cowl neck keeps my neck warm without being too tight, or too loose and fussy. This is a cold-weather basic that will always stay in my closet. I wish Arc Teryx was made in the USA, but it can't be beat for comfort and performance.

Other than the sleeve being a little longer than I like , the sweater fit quite well. I was surprised the colour ran when I first washed it.

Very large - is really a 2x

Too large. Fit a woman who wears 2x shirts

This is a cozy, well-fitting top, which I would have given 5 stars to if not for a small issue. I was wearing it the other day while walking though some brush and it caught on a branch, totally pulling a huge thread and creating a snag. This came as a surprise as it felt fleecy and not exactly conducive to snagging, but it happened. I'm 5'7" and 135 lbs and the small fits perfectly.

I happened by chance to find this sweater at one of the local sporting outdoor shops. They had the black sapphire colour and were offering it at 20% off. Since I have a number of Arcteryx hoodies and jackets, I didn't think I would be disappointed in trying this sweater out. It is more of a looser fit than the form fitting hoodies. I bought a medium as that that was the only size available. I wear a medium in the form fitting jackets and hoodies. I like the sweater and like that it has a high collar.

I like this so much I have 2 now, great casual wear with a relaxed fit and easy to add layers. Only downside is I got a catch on one with first wear but this could just be my dog getting jealous:)

Far too expensive for what it is. Its a bit bulky and the fit, even in a small is quite loose, meaning all that warmth its to provide will escape on the sides!
