This is the most versatile shirt/sweatshirt/jacket I've ever owned. I love wearing it as a layer skiing (it's quite thin), when it gets cold in the office, and as a jacket in the spring. The fit is true to size and considering how much I've worn this, it has worn extremely well.

Like all of the other reviewers, I found the quality of this fleece to be superb. The cut is a bit different than that of their zip neck Covert - I find that this one fits more like a general (if technical)sweater than a purely technical piece. The extra small is perfect if you're a 32b/34a type. One thing I really appreciate about Arc'teryx in general is that they are good about sizing between their shells and fleeces - the fleece is fitted enough to wear under a shell of the same size with no difficulty. One of the best pieces that I own!

One again another great piece from Arc'teryx..Runs small..order one size up..if you wash in warm water the piece shrinks in the arms and overall length. Tends to pill after repeated wearings..But love the warmth, fit and performance. Will buy again but larger.

This is by far my favorite fleece (from a technical wear junkie and Arc'Teryx enthusiast, this is saying quite a lot). It's nicely tailored for a flattering fit, so it's not too bulky to layer under a shell or a poofy. Also surprisingly windproof, and my dog's hair is invisible against the basmati color.

This cardigan is great. It is not windproof, but incredibly warm for everything. Sizes run small. Order up.

This jacket is GREAT! It's incredibly comfortable and warm - it has a great fit. It does run small though! I am now buying one as a present! I love it.

The Covert looks great, however I have worn mine a lot and it pilled quite badly, making it look very used. Also if you are looking for a WARM jacket this one may not be the way to go, it is a little thin and in order for me to stay warm (if I am not doing something aerobic in it) I have to layer. I have actually just returned my covert to Arc’teryx in exchange for something that shouldn't pill. Arc’teryx customer service is absolutely awesome they have been more than helpful in my exchange.

My first Arc’teryx purchase. I am not disappointed! The quality is outstanding. Attractive feminine design, looks good on the trail and in town. Plum is a really nice color. My favorite fleece jacket now!

Arc’teryx definitely designs things well: this fleece fit GREAT, is very high quality and the brown color is superb. Alas, I ordered the small and it is too tight over a sweater; fine over just a shirt (I am a 36B, size 6). I also didn't find it very "sweatery." The woven fleece is cool, but not all that different from regular fleece. I returned it to buy a medium in one of Arc’teryx's more basic fleeces.

Great shape. Amazing weave to the fleece—looks like a sweater, feels like a fleece. I've purchased a lot of garments that talk a lot about 'wicking' properties in their fabrics, but this is the only thing I've owned where it's true. Wearing it for warm-up on a hike for example, I sweat easily and normally I might even sweat through a thin fleece a bit, but when I took it off, beads of sweat had been mysteriously redistributed elsewhere, and the armpit fabric remained cool to the touch. Flattering shape, long enough in the torso, wicked zips.

This jacket does run on the small side, so if your planning on wearing a shirt under this, be sure to order a size larger than you normally would. I actually tried this jacket on at another store to make sure the size was right for me—I would recommend this before buying. The jacket turned out to be my favorite of all my casual wear jackets.

I love this Covert Cardigan. It is lightweight but very warm and fits absolutely great, like all Arcteryx gear does. It is also extremely well made. The sweater knit look is very nice, and a nice change from the usual fleece look. I liked mine enough that I bought my boyfriend one.

This is a super-designed cardigan, with the top notch quality I'd expect from Arc'teryx. It’s unbelievably soft and the jacket I grab first whenever I go out. It works well for outdoor activities then does double duty as a casual sweater too. My only complaint would be its tendency to pill on the outside surface. All in all, it’s highly recommended!

They fit small. I bought a medium for a girl freind. Had to give to my sister instead. The XS must be tiny.
