Kenneth Bedsted - 2008-04-20Very nice jacket, very recommendable
Great jacket! I am not your average outdoor person, in fact I don't hike or ski much. I bought the jacket for driving in my 911 Cabrio with the top down on cold days and for that purpose the jacket is also very good.

When you don't need the extra warmth of the Fission SV this is the jacket to have. I have both and the Fission AR will handle the weather between zero and 30 F. If active even lower.

Ron C. - 2008-01-26This is an exceptional Jacket.
Let me state up front, I didn't purchase this jacket for any outdoor sports activities, just simply as a winter jacket for commuting to and from work and going into town. I initially balked at the price, but was tired of the poorly tailored, made in China stuff. So I plunged. Absolutely no regrets. Perfect fit - fantastic tailoring, impeccable workmanship and first rate materials. As others have noted - weight to warmth ratio is unbelievable. I would have found a pocket on the inside of the jacket very useful, nonetheless, this jacket has my highest recommendation - don't hesitate.

Hong Ahn - 2008-01-02Excellent Jacket!!
This Jacket is awesome. The weight to warmth ratio is incredible. It's it pretty lightweight yet it keeps me warmer than my 700 fill down jacket. The gore-tex material is an added bonus. Kept me warm and dry while I was on the slopes this winter. I was actually sweating while skiing with this on. I have no need to bundle heavy under this jacket.

The Arcteryx Fission AR is protective, light weight and fits as if it were built custom for me. Altrec always carries the best Arcteryx Jackets featuring Gore-Tex. I always receive prompt shipping and great service from Altrec. I always buy here and recommend Altrec to my friends.

Outstanding fit, great-looking jacket. The only real knock on this thing is the hood in the collar, but if you don't want it get the Fission LT hoody or the Fission SV. The collar is barely noticeable, whoever thought it felt like a cast must have a huge neck. Think of it as the small price you pay to have the convenience of a hood without it looking goofy, flapping around on the slopes or otherwise getting in your way. I also own the Cloudveil Zero-G (a similar jacket w/o the hood) and while it's nice jacket, it's not quite as finished and dialed in as the design of the Arc, which feels like it was custom fit for me. The Arc is amazingly light (about 1 lb.) and compresses down if you need to pack it, but it's plenty warm down to zero and below. As with most Arc, the cut is shorter than many jackets, if you like your jacket to totally cover your belt you might not like it (although it is slightly longer in the back for coverage). If you want a slightly heavier and probably more durable, longer, more casual jacket get the Cloudveil, for superlight warmth, versatility and incredible fit get the Arc.

Tin Pho - 2006-03-27Very impressive for a great winter jacket.
Arc'Teryx Fission AR jacket is very well constructed and excellent design of warmth and waterproof protection without feeling the bulky of wearing it. The jacket is very light in weight and would be even better if it has an inside pocket.

Dylan - 2006-03-01Impressed with it so far.
I got this jacket on sale and it was well worth it. Excellent construction. Someone mentioned the hood gets in the way - if I tilt my head backward I can feel it press against my neck and base of my skull a bit, but I don't think it actually restricts movement. Some people may find it uncomfortable but it doesn't bother me. Considering the price, this may be an annoying oversight on the part of Arc'teryx.
I'm usually scouring the bargain bin for clothes so I'm new to "high performance" or "technical" clothing. What really impressed me about this jacket is its extreme light weight and ease of movement. One thing I didn't like is the Gore Tex is very noisy when you're walking and your arms rub against your body.
For its weight is extremely warm. I think it's very versatile as far as temperatures go. I wore it out in -15'C weather and was comfortable - not too cool and not too warm. If it dips to -25'C or below you may want to consider some extra insulation.
I'm 6'0" and 170 lbs. I usually fit between a Large and an Extra Large depending on the manufacturer. I bought an XL and there's room to spare. I can wear some extra insulation under it if it gets really cold out. The sleeves and jacket are just the right length. If you have problems with sleeves being too short or are between sizes, go the next size up.

Stefano Lee - 2005-12-27Top Quality
Arcteryx Fission AR Jackets is mostly very high prices considering almost same uses jacket of other brands. H/ever it's unique design and very detailed and elaborate finishing considering almost every harsh environment of winter mountains did make me buy this Fission AR Jacket without any hesitation.
I can recommand this Fission AR jacket as the last and ultimate hardshell jacket for winter period mountaineering.

anil chowdhary - 2005-12-02Not impressed!
I like it however I must confess I love arcteryx stuff, however, I dont like the hood on this. If they made it w/o a hood or removeable hood, i would drop my money on it! The hood limits neck movement and it feels like you have a cast on your neck. You can't move your neck back all that much! Believe me, I am a avid hiker and skier. It looks cool but it needs to serve function as well. My suggestion you ask? Try the Cloudveil Zero-G jacket or the democratically priced Marmot TR6. These last two jackets you can save your money and buy your damsel a latte at the end of the powder day and that looks cool!

Gary Greenwood - 2005-04-04Awesome cold/wet weather jacket
Excellent jacket for when you know it is going to be cold AND wet. Makes packing easy, one peice of gear does it all. Waterproof and warmer than when I layer a fleece under a shell. Not stuffy at all, Primaloft is great. I've worn it many times all day in cool, wet Oregon weather.

Luca - 2005-03-16Great jacket for cold weather
I bought this jacket to use it while climbing or alpine touring in cold weather (not Himalaya, anyway!!!), and i'm glad to say that it is very warm, whitout being too bulky. I think that the only thing missing is an interior pocket.

Great winter jacket! Very well constucted. Definitely worth the premium price. The jacket would be even better if they addressed the following: Lacks an inside pocket and when the hood is tucked inside the collar, the collar slighlty pushes the back of the neck forward.
