Arc'teryx Tau Pullover - Men's

Item #ARC0221 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good but not Perfect

By Ranked #2102 - Men's Fleece Jackets December 4, 2009

When I bought this, I expected a much more trim and athletic fit, however, the pullover is admittedly somewhat baggy (I'm 5'11'' and 130 lbs and a small is still a bit large). Furthermore, it's far from wind or weather proof. The upside is that it is substantially more wind resistant than a typical fleece. However, because the Tau isn't much cheaper than a light jacket such as the Gamma AR, it's difficult to recommend this product when a light jacket will perform better in most conditions. Use the Tau as a high-end layering piece, but don't rely on it to fulfil the role of a jacket.
