Arc'teryx Tau Pullover Fleece Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC0888 | 73 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Oh, yeah

By Ranked #174 - Men's Fleece Jackets November 9, 2008

This is another really nice Arc'teryx product. I wear it has a base layer, and it's warm and comfortable. The material has good wind resistance and fair waterproofing, sort of a 'best of both worlds' compromise which means it does breathe well yet works for most activities. The material itself is a little strange in a good way; it feels a bit like like soft foam rubber. Thee torso length is long; it goes down almost to the middle of my butt. With a pack on, my lower back sweats where the hip belt rests, but I feel totally dry. If I place my hand there, I can feel how wet the shirt is - all of the moisture has been absorbed away from the skin. Full retail price is tough to take, but they go on sale once in a while, and then it's well worth it. I have two, so I'm convinced.
