Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Kyanite Pullover Hoody

This is now my mostest favoristest hoody in the world. So comfortable, so warm, so everything I want a hoody to be!

Great hoody. Really comfortable and warm. Would difinitely buy again

best fleece I have ever owned---warm. comfortable. and it has pockets---soft. and amazingly warm

Great hoody as I would expect from arcteryx nice and warm also the material feels amazing but I have decided to keep this one for more better wear or mid layer as it does feel a very soft material feels like it would bobble quite easily if I had my cordura shoulder straps from my pack on it over time so going to stick to the delta hybrid for that . All round great hoody though and my normal size large fits perfectly. Cheers once again arcteryx

This hoody is perfect for comfort and fit. I use it for everyday wear and as outerwear for my fishing and the easy wear just lets me forget I have it on until the wind or showers appear and it keeps me warm and cosy. The material is soft to the touch which makes it adaptable as a mid or next to the skin layer. Although the fit is true to size I did order the next size up to allow for my less than flat stomach. It will fit perfectly I'm sure, after a wash and low heat drying

I used it as a first layer love it, warm and used it for casual

This is a great pullover hoody .... excellent weight, and fit. The Fleece feels soft but warm. Really purchased the full zip version, due to a better selection of colours, but happy I decided on this. That said, I wish there was a better selection of colours.

So far I've only worn this on my commute and around the house. It's incredibly comfortable and warm. I was slightly concerned regarding the sizing when purchasing but I'm very happy with the size given my 'unusual' dimensions (long arms!). It's a very versatile top that would make a great mid-layer for proper use, but as I've found, it's actually fine just running around town, even with a fairly strong windchill, it has kept me warm. The open pocket is great to put your hands in and the hood, when down, keeps your neck warm. I haven't noticed any material issues (piling, etc.) yet in a month of wearing it. Overall, very satisfied, and a lovely Oxford blue!

This is an excellent midlayer which outperformed my expectations. While not specifically designed for it, I played golf in 45 degree weather with just a tee shirt on underneath and was very comfortable. The warmth is beyond what I expected and is very comfortable inside. I'll wear this not only as a midlayer, but a stand alone around the house and outside for cooler days.

I have been using this mostly as a second/third layer for skiing resort and backcountry. I wear it over merino and under some sort of insulated jacket/shell combo. Surprisingly warm for its weight, breathes better than wool, the pocket works great for unfreezing frozen goggle lenses. Dries faster than wool, does not collect snowballs, hood fits under a helmet but isn't restrictive and collar is the perfect height. The updated fabric is noticeably softer and stretchier than previous versions. Fit is comfortable, not trim but not loose, great for layering. Low profile zippers go unnoticed until I want to use them.

Recently purchased and wore it over a light weight synthetic base. Amazingly comfortable and warm, kept me warm and without sweating on a winter hike in NH White Mountains. I take a size medium and the fit was spot on. Going to buy a second and use as my go to mid layer for winter hiking

Love it! Perfect under the atom jacket. The frontpocket makes the hoody 100%

Great fabric! Perfect for travel or a chilly hike.

Warm and great fit. Excellent for fall hikes and when it's not too windy.

I love this pullover for car camping. Its the perfect relaxation piece for hanging by a campfire or to throw on to make coffee/breakfast on a crisp camp morning. The brushed inside is super cozy. Fits true to my usual size for mid layers and is not too tight in the forearms (a common problem for climbers...). I have long arms and it fits me well in the sleeves. Only thing I do not love are the zipper pockets, but that is because I use it to lounge in. If you are wearing it to the crag as a midlayer, the zips might be nice.

Ran small. Otherwise it was greatly designed and warm. Had to return as Medium was too short in the torso/slightly too tight, and the large was too baggy in the torso.

I normally wear an M in Atx. I am 5'8" 175 (I lift). This hoodie fits more like a base layer and was a bit restrictive across my chest in that size. I return it and bought an L then washed and dried it once with heat. It lost a couple of percent of its size and now it fits perfectly for a hoodie (a bit loose with the option to stuff a base layer underneath). If an M normally sits close to skin for you, you may need to size up.

Love the comfort and warmth of this. Have had this since 3 months , the only issue I have had so far is that it started pilling immediately after my 2nd wear. This started on the underside of the arms and has started to show the same issue on the chest.

I have particularly mixed feelings about this garment. I ordered it to replace an Arc'teryx fleece that's nearly thirty years old. My first disappointment was the fabric; it doesn't fit my definition of fleece, and my definition was formed by wearing your old producta model of excellence. The same goes for the cut and the placement of the seams. Disappointed, I gave it to my son, who didn't want it and instead rushed to get my old fleece... I've decided to keep this new garment anyway, even though I don't particularly like it. I'm 72 years old, and at this age, appearance isn't all that important anymore.
