Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Rho Crew

Agree with other reviewers that this is a great shirt but the 2025 version fits smaller than previous versions, recommend sizing up to fit like on the models. I am usually between a small and an XS in Arcteryx shirts, I bought this in a small and it is tight. I would exchange it for a medium but sadly they are sold out. The aster azealea colour is spectacular, true to the photos.m

I'm a big fan of Arc'teryx and want everything they make! I really wanted to love this base layer, but I still prefer the older version. It was super lightweight and versatileI could wear it comfortably in both winter and summer. I wish Arc'teryx would bring the old version back. As I always say: if it's not broken, let's not fix it!

The new winter 24/25 fit is really uncomfortable - too tight around the ribs and gaping at the waist. I have to constantly pull it down as it rides up, despite sizing up from my usual small to a medium but it is still really unpleasant to wear. I am really disappointed as I love the Stratus colour and would buy 4 or 5 of these base layers for the winter if the fit was the same as last year's version - the fit for winter 23/24 was perfect.

I brought my Rho Crew Neck Long Sleeve with me to the Big Island and it quickly became a go-to piece. I wore it on the plane, around Hawaii in ~24C weather, and all the way up to the Mauna Kea summit at nearly 14,000 ft with strong winds and temperatures around 0C. What really impressed me was how breathable it is. I never felt overheated in the warmer conditions, yet it kept me comfortably warm at the top of the volcano when the temperature dropped. The fabric adapts incredibly well across a wide range of conditions. I also love the stretch, it's comfortable, moves easily with you, and layers perfectly without feeling restrictive. This is a versatile, well-designed layer that performs just as well in travel and everyday wear as it does in extreme environments.

My absolute favorite base layer! Kept me warm on snowy days!

This is one of the best base layers I've ever owned. The materials is very warm, but breathable and lightweight! I even feel good about wearing this just as shirt.
