Awesome Arc Product, Like Always

This is a hard-core fleece. Fabric is sort of stiff because of the tight knit on the outside, but super soft and comfortable on the inner side. The tight knit cuts the wind very effectively. Because of high wind resistance, it can be layered as outer piece to if no precipitation. I wore a light (Rho LT) baselayer under this when climbing Mt. Washington last weekend and was plenty warm during 10-20F windchills. Fit is not tight like many Arc products, but articulated elbows and the cut in general are very nice, designed with layering in mind. Shoulder pocket is handy for 2-way radio, camera, cash + ID, or keys. This fleece is also great looking. Like all Arc products, this is a top of the line piece, at a top of the line price -- but if you will use it for what it is intended (any type of mountain endeavor), it is well worth it. It is so well constructed that I have no doubt it will last for many mountains and many years, and for that reason it is worth every penny.
