Arc'teryx Men's Covert Cardigan Hoody

Anonymous - 2008-11-23

Great insulating layer
Main points for me are, 1, The Polartec® Thermal Pro® Sweater Knit is very breathable and quick drying, 2, The scuba hood fits nice and snug, 3, Works great under hard shell. If you are looking for it to block the wind, look somewhere else, please don’t expect it to do something it’s not designed to do. One of my favorite insulating layers, quality is second to none, I love this insulating jacket.

Top quality cozy fleece
This fleece is a great insulating layer, or perfect for lounging around on lazy sundays. The unique construction of the hoody makes the fleece look more like a woven sweater but with fleece feel and qualities. This hoody used with a shell will provide a comfortable outdoor experience. The fit of the cardigan is true to size. As with all arcteryx pieces the quality and attention to detail shines brightly.

This jacket rocks!
Typical Arc'teryx top quality. Nice and warm on cool days with excellent movement allowed and good water repellency. Excellent at 50-60 degrees plus.

This is a cool item
The best outerwear deal going-feels like wool, acts like fleece. The style is just right for the field or a casual night out. Good fit to your true size.

Great style
My husband finds this fleece to be flatteringly stylish...roomy but not overdone. It's extremely well-made,soft, and very light. His only concern is that it may not be warm enough, but with some type of undergarment, I'm sure it will be. It's perfect for most Florida winter weather.

A great product
I have to say that I love Arcteryx stuff, in my opinion its the best gear money can buy. It just seems like it will last forever. I am very glad I purchased the Arcteryx Covert Hoody. Its a great urban zip up, very comfortable. The hood lays just right, and never gets in the way. The pockets are in the perfect spot. All the zippers work nice and smooth. The only down side is, that it has no wind stopping ability. Even though it may cost a lot, its well worth it.

Arc'teryx: Men's Covert Cardigan Hoody
Great product, worth every penny. I use this as a mid layer for skiing. Not the best for an outer layer because it does not block wind at all. It has a very classy look and it is made with an extremely soft grade of fleece. Order one size larger than you normally would. Try any of the Arc'teryx products and you will be hooked, just be prepared to sticker shock.

Perfect
Perfect and light fitting, under for example a soft shell jacket or just for a short walk in the woods, perfect as expected

Great Jacket
Great jacket. Nice athletic fit and looks good. Favorite all around fleece to run errands around town. No wind resistance, so if a cold wind is blowing it makes a great mid-layer for warmth. Very cold weather will require a warmer fleece unless I'm skiing or other very active activity.

Amazing product from Arcteryx!
Beautiful jacket, great material, total comfort and versatility. Works on its own from anywhere between 10C & -10C. I layer it under my Gamma MX Hoody for a perfect combo in colder weather. Very pill resistant, you can throw it in the wash without fear. The only downside is that it isn't very wind resistant, so if there's a strong breeze you might feel a bit of chill. Way more upside than down though, fersure. Great jacket!

VERy nice!!
As usual arcteryx exceeds the standards with this product. Is it expensive? HECK YEAH IT IS! Is it worth it? well, i'm not really sure any hoody is worth that much but it is an incredible piece that is extremely soft and warm. you will obvioiusly need to layer under a windproof shell or outer layer but you can't beat it for insulation (except for the Maverick AR, which is by far my favorite article of clothing). the fit is right on...it fits close and athletic. I definately recommend this to anyone with the funds and the love for arcteryx.

pretty hip
Well made, casual looking, great for apres ski. Like other arcteryx this is a quality piece of clothing. I especially apreciate the zippers which are always smooth as silk.
