Good stuff

November 10, 2009
I've had this about a month now and overall its a great jacket.
Its very lightweight and has been keeping me warm in 30-40F weather just walking around town without any other layers. It vents really well, so I didn't overheat after some fairly strenuous hiking at around the same temperatures.
I did not get wet with light rain, but this would not be the jacket for heavy downpours.
It runs a little big. I'm 6'0 180lbs and size large felt a little loose, good with a fairly thick layer under it, but a little baggy over a t-shirt.
Overall I'm pretty impressed. This was my 1st arcteryx and based on my experience so far I'd do it again.
