Arc'teryx Atom LT Hooded Insulated Jacket - Men's

November 18, 2009

I emailed Arc'teryx about the Atom LT and this is the response they sent me.........

Coreloft is a fabric that we have made for us. It's similar to Primaloft, but we have tweaked a few things to try to get better performance.

Core Loft is constructed of a double strand of continuous polyester filaments. The finer yarns (1 denier) are "crimped" to help trap air molecules which in turn help trap body heat while the larger yarns (3.5 Denier) provide loft and resilience from compression. The fibers are siliconized to help add resistance to moisture and decrease drying time.

The Atom is a lightweight insulated shell for more active pursuits in cold/wet weather that offers more breathability than a belay jacket while still offering enough wind/water protection.

Let me know if you have any other questions,

Arc'teryx Atom LT Hooded Insulated Jacket - Men's

Ok so what is Luminara Nylon weave and Coreloft insulation? I'm guessing the coreloft is like primaloft, but maybe an outdated version that lost its patent?

This towel is compact, soft, super absorbent, and fast drying even in humid weather. It was a perfect choice for my trip to Costa Rica.
