Comments about Arc'teryx Covert Cardigan Fleece Jacket - Women's:
The fit is perfect for me- not strangulation type form fitting, but not bag like either. I used this jacket in the winter as an indoor top layer over short sleeved shirts. It fits easily under winter coats when I have to head outside for errands or chores. For the fall and spring it has worked as a light weight coat by itself as long as it is not windy. Packs nicely in or on a day pack depending on size of backpack. Great for around town errands and evenings by the campfire.
I have to emphasize it is NOT WINDPROOF. The wind cuts right through it. Also unfortunately it is inclined towards pilling. And while I have yet to find a true fleece that doesn't - it is worth noting that that this coat happily attracts dog hair like a magnet attracts nails. Not convinced it's worth the full retail price but on sale with smartly managed discounts to boot it is nice.
Still despite the few downsides, it is soft, machine washable, has a nice cut and good large pockets that are easily large enough to hold smart phone, keys, ipod and a portable seagate hard drive all at the same time.

Comments about Arc'teryx Covert Cardigan Fleece Jacket - Women's:
This cardigan (sweatshirt?) is extremely comfortable, warm enough to use as a good mid-layer if you're not expecting any wind protection (you can see through the fibers). Unfortunately it is a lint magnet and the fabric is pilling. I'm not sure it's worth the price but I got it on sale. I love the twilight color, and I have no complaints about the comfort at all.

Comments about Arc'teryx Covert Cardigan Fleece Jacket - Women's:
I was looking for a comfortable fleece jacket that was not horribly baggy, so the fact that it runs a bit small made this jacket work for me. The jacket has a nice shape, but it is a bit short, which works well for me, but maybe not for the average torso. The biggest pro of this jacket is the look of it. It is fairly warm, but not at all windproof.
Even at the sale price, other jackets offer significantly more functionality. Unless you're highest priority is finding a good fitting/cute jacket, you may be better off with another jacket.

great layering piece for skiing and everyday in cold weather. It's snug but not tight. It's not heavy but very warm. I love this under my ski jacket and my winter coat.

Comments about Arc'teryx Covert Cardigan Fleece Jacket - Women's:
This is a great everyday jacket, warm comfy and very cute. Fit is perfect, not bulky or shapeless. If it gets really cold, I shift over to down sweater or add a wind jacket. I wear it in the house during winter just because I like it so much.
