Arc'teryx Covert Hooded Fleece Jacket

Love sleek design lines that compliment your curves instead of covering your torso with the dreaded box look? Welcome to the Arc’teryx Women’s Covert Hooded Fleece Jacket. The clean, casual cut of this hoody goes easy on the eyes, while the Polartec Thermal Pro fabric insulates on winter days. Gusseted underarms keep the hem of this jacket down when you lift your arms, and unlike some gussets, the design also reduces bulk so you won’t feel like you’re smuggling gerbils in your armpits. Pull up the close-fitting scuba hood and let the fast-wicking performance take care of you when it gets hot on the mountain or in town.

There is much to love of the Arc'Teryx Covert Hoody. I absolutely love the fit, the soft fabric, the warmth, the color.
It isn't a lint magnet like many of my other fleeces, and just looks nicer than traditional fleece. But don't mistake it for a softshell or great outer layer. As described, it has no wind protection. I just layer a light shell over it for those days. I could easily wear mine every day and get tons of compliments on it.

I bought this hoody in a Meduium green tea. It is quite lovely - professional enough to wear to work, yet warm and functional for the weekend. I would give it 5 stars if Arc'teryx had stuck with manufacturing in Canada not China.

Rating:*****

This is a great fleece for outdoor anything. I love how cozy it is and warm even in the below zero temps up in the mountains. Moves well with activity.

Yikes

I had to send this fleece back as it wasn't warm enough. Also, it was made very cheaply. The other arcteryx products I've seen have always been made beautifully, but this one is made in China and not consistent with the usual Canadian quality. It was also too short for wearing it for anything but casual use, and wouldn't be very good for even layering because of lack of warmth and length. In the end, this fleece isn't worth the money for active wear, but is cute for casual use, and the colors are truly beautiful.

Breaking the bank.

Yeah, they look great, are cut well, and are very flattering..... until they go through the wash and start pilling. I have two. I put one in the dryer and only line dried the other. They both pilled - the line dried one may be a bit worse. For the price, I would expect these to last forever in great condition. Kind of a bummer.

I bought one of these 4 years ago and it looks exactly the same. I bought this one with a hood and it is already pilling, after only 3 weeks. This was a great disappointment and shows lower quality when moving your company from Canada to China. Even worse, its more expensive than my first one.
