Arc'teryx  Skyline Shirt - Men's

My husband bought 6 Skyline shirts for a trip. He has worn these shirts for quite a while, and we can't say enough good things about them (they look smart for work or social events, they are comfortable and lightweight and they breathe). The new ones arrived, and on all 6 shirts, the snaps don't line up, especially at the bottom, resulting in a puckered appearance, where the hem lies at an angle on both sides, instead of lying flat. I hope that Arcteryx fixes this problem quickly. We are left in the lurch with an upcoming vacation and no shirts.

This shirt just arrived at my door and I like it so far, however, the buttons are plastic, I hope they will last and withstand swift unbuttoning, the color is not a standard black is definitely more towards matte black like norvan 9” shorts, overall it meets my expectations, we will see about those buttons.

I have 20 twenty of the old style skyline shirts with only a couple new ones as back up remaining and have worn them on cruises for semi formal dining in the Mediterranean to hikes In Machu Picchu. Since Covid19 have worn them to work and get compliments on the nice style. Good thing I got so many of the old but in my opinion from trying on the new design at shops the pockets, the fabrics and the buttons have been either styled down, cheapened and cut altered and from reading other customer reviews Arc’teryx got lost on the trail on this one. I would gladly pay for a more costly version of the old style shirt with the same fabric, style, buttons and loose the cheesy zipper!

This is my first Skyline and I'm really enjoying the fit and finish of this shirt. The material is very comfortable and the fit is just right, maybe a bit on the looser side for Arc'teryx. It would be a great shirt for travel, with its comfort and zip pocket for your passport, and its comfortable, light-weight and quick-drying material makes it ideal for summer hikes. An interesting thing I also noticed is the fabric doesn't retain smells like some of the other polyester pieces I own. After a night on the town I hung it to air out and in the morning it smelled like new.

I own a bunch of these in black (short sleeve and long sleeve). It seems like a lot of people are complaining about the new style, cut and zipper. Personally I find the new style an upgrade all around. It’s more contemporary. I wear a lot of Veilance and I feel this shirt has DNA from that line. My rating is a solid 5 stars. The only thing I would change if I was designing the next iteration would be to lose the front pocket entirely. For me I use pant or jacket pockets and never use a chest pocket on a shirt.

At 47 I stepped away from my norms and this was the first product I purchased from the company. As an outdoor enthusiast and office Exec. I love clothing that I can use all around... very cost effective. I'm willing to pay more for the versatility in look and fabric tech. I found it here. I've used it for work, hiking and going out to dinner. The material and fit are great. I'm seeing that I missed out on a previous model, but I do have to say that I'm a fan of this one. You have earned another customer.

I ordered three of these shirts, one blue, one cinder, one black. They were all size large and that's what the tags on the shirts said, but they each fit differently. Like Goldilocks, I tried them and found which worked. The blue was tight across the stomach but slouched over my shoulders, like a polyester shirt might fit after it was run through a hot dryer and shrank. The cinder was easily the size of an XL! I swam in it. Only the black fit well, which is lucky because I badly needed a black button down shirt. The immediate need is why I didn't return it with the others. None of this would be a big deal except you charge a lot of money for these shirts. These are supposed to be high quality, but it is does not inspire confidence when the same "large" is actually 3 different sizes. You really need to look into how these are made.

I own about 15 short-sleeve Skyline shirts in most of the available colors (plus a few long-sleeve). Nearly half were purchased recently as part of a last-ditch stock up of the old design. As many others have mentioned, the character of this shirt has significantly changed. The new design is much lighter and has a zipper pocket. This would probably be preferable in very hot environments where style is less important. I, however, mourn the loss of my beloved "wear it to work every day, go straight to the climbing gym, take it on a trip to Iceland, wear it almost constantly while filming the "Return to Tuvalu" documentary in the South Pacific, save paper towels by drying your hands on a shirt that air dries in 3 minutes, do anything" shirt. I truly hope you bring back the old design in a rainbow of color options, perhaps as part of your urban/city line.

I just don't get it. Arc'teryx is a company that prides itself on high-performance outdoor gear, and this once great shirt is now a lemon! The metal snaps were the bomb. They never opened accidentally, sounded solid, and looked cool. The plastic snap are absolute garbage. They open accidentally, they are not secure, and are of are made of cheap plastic. I have at least 8 of these new shirts. What gives Arc'teryx?

The Skyline shirt has a distinctive design. I like the hidden buttons and zip breast pocket and trim fit. I bought mine to wear in my hospital job. Its cool and drys very quickly. Take care when ironing, l would not iron directly onto the material just to be on the safe side.. I have spotted this shirt being worn on an American TV program about the paranormal by one of the team, (physicist) in the series!
