One of the best Arc'teryx values
The Fission SV is a great cold-weather jacket! It’s completely waterproof, incredibly warm, and blocks out the wind. The heavy duty outer shell includes reinforcement at high wear areas. The one thing to keep in mind is that it’s not versatile – wear it when it’s really cold and that’s it. Over 30 degrees this jacket is just way too much. But if you’re looking for something super warm and durable this has to be one of the best values in the Arcteryx lineup.

Warmest jacket bought ever
Bought this jacket before X'mas but have yet to wear it out as the weather has been quite warm in NYC this winter. Tried it at home a few times. Extremely warm and the fit is great. Sticking with the Fission AR jacket, a very satisfied purchase from Altrec for now. Hopefully the mercury will drop and give me a chance to wear the new Fission SV soon. If you are looking for the warmest and lightest jacket in the market, get the Fission SV, no need to look any further.

Outstanding so far, one minor gripe
I have to admit, I wouldn't normally spend this kind of money on a coat, but I really like my Gamma MX jacket, so I splurged. All I can say is WOW!
The coat is easily the warmest I have ever had. So far it has held up to wind, rain, and cold very well. I even was able to walk the dog with just a t-shirt on under my coat, and stayed warm the whole time.
My one gripe is the zippers. The are finally a little more friendly, but initially are a real pain. You'd think for the price that they would easily zip up and down. Having to remove your gloves to get it to work = not fun. As mentioned though, they are much better after a little use.
Overall, I'd highly recommend it. I was worried about the hood, but it's been a big help too with the wind. It's a keeper.

Excellent for all Winter Weather Great for everyt
Bought this jacket from Altrec and Love it! It is great for skiing and just hanging around the campfire in cold weather. The Gore-Tex Pro Shell is amazing! The Jacket wears well and is excellent against all winter conditions!

It is good work.
It was fit though it exactly put on in winter.
Warmth, lightness, the storm protection, endurance, and any are very highest.
It is likely to be able to go anywhere even in Alaska and the North Pole if this is.
It is the highest exactly item of winter.

Absolutely great insulated jacket, Since got it, I didn't fear any cold weather in this winter. Arc'teryx jacket never disappoint me , especially this jacket, extremely warm, breathable, waterproof , windproof and durable, it almost provide any features as a insulated jacket. Only one disadvantage is its weight. it's heavier than I thought, but it's not critical. I am so satisfied with it.

This coat is magic!
Other reviews were hard to believe -this coat seemed too good to be true, but they were right. Light weight, keeps you comfortable warm, but not hot. Last few weeks in Midwest have been sub-zero with feet of snow - comfortable and warm throughout. I wished I bought it earlier. XL fits perfect for 6' 220lb

best cold weather jacket
Wow, this jacket is warm. i bought this jacket to weather the cold in seoul, korea this winter and im glad i paid up for this product. i've read other reviews touting how warm this jacket is but this jacket is WARM. the weather in seoul has been around -17 Celsius(1.5 Fahrenheit) but this jacket keeps me warm. if you want a warm jacket thats light and not bulky, this is the one to get. it's expensive, but cry once and get the best.

Perfect All-In-One Shell
This is a typical jacket with insulation, and all weather protection. But what I especially like about this jacket, is it's trim fit and the pit zips. Usually, your shell has pit zips, but your insulation layer underneath, does not. But with the Fission SL, you have pit zips, all the way through, which is great for ventilation.

the ARC'tTERYX FISSION SV is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!
I was a little skeptical as to whether or not this jacket was going to be a worthwhile investment due to its seemingly expensive pricetag...however once I began to wear this finest of shells there was no turning back!!! This is by all means the warmest, most comfortable jacket i have ever owned! The styling is second to none and the engineering is simply the best!! I was however able to save a huge bundle off that hefty pricetag by writing one of these nifty reviews for a 20% code!!! sweet!! now I will be warm and toasty all winter long and well, with this next review I am about to make another major purchase on this awesome website called ALTREC, thank you very much!!

Bought this for my husband for his birthday. He says its the best ski jacket he's worn so far. Breathable, warm, lightweight, windproof, and waterproof.

Great jacket
The Fission SV Jacket is well designed and constructed. The fit is true to size and light. The materials show no wear even after extensive use. I would highly recommend this product if you are looking for a long-lasting coat.

Warm Jacket
My 1st purchase product from Arc'teryx, and I am very happy with it. Very warm in Chicago winter. the sharp cuffs are a little annoying, but when wearing gloves cannot feel them.
