I had this jacket a few months, but returned it when I noticed that compared to the rest of the jacket most all of the baffles on the backside had little to no down in them. Unbelievably terrible quality control for this jacket to leave the manufacturer with this shoddy workmanship. This especially should never be the case for a jacket the sellers expect the customer to pay $400 for.
Took this jacket to sunrise hike to Garibaldi and Panorama Ridge and it was more than enough to keep me warm with just a T-shirt underneath. Only one thing that bothered me was the breathability and wearing during high intense activity even with just a t-shirt underneath, I did sweat quite quickly and made it very difficult to take the jacket off after. Other than that, I loved how it packs itself in the bag from the inside pocket of the jacket, extremely lightweight and very comfortable. This is my first ever down jacket and it may have to be my only one because of how versatile and warm it is.
Very nice light weight warm packable 700 down jacket, would have given 5 stars except my only gripe is inside pocket is extremely shallow so much that if not zipped or if zipper was work its self-open you can easily lose contents, in my case have had wallet fall out on more than one occasion, last time was in a store luckily store employee found it and returned to before I left store, if had been out in the woods different story! pocket has built-in stuff bag nice but bag also wants to shove things out if not zipped, I also have a NorthFace down jacket that has a real deep inside pocket where you can throw your phone, wallet, Keys and never worry about losing anything!
Jacket material is so flimsy that it rips easily with anything g that is even remotely sharp. That’s not even the worst part, the zipper is horribly made and will get stuck or not zip up correctly half the time. Jacket ripped up after a couple weeks, then 2 months later the zipper completely fell off. Was definitely expecting something better quality because of the high price.
Love this new green colour. I am always cold and this Cerium Jacket solves my problems. Super lightweight yet warm. Love this. Already looking at another one in a different colour. This size fits me perfectly so that helps.
I have been using jackets from Patagonia North face and spider but this stands way too good. It’s light but give you the perfect comfort and warm mess. I love it and I’m gonna order it for my family too too good
A great warm jacket with the worst zipper imaginable. Way undersized. It only fault but it is a big one.
(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) As the fall season has come around again, I have pulled out my Cerium jacket and am always pleased to wear it. Like all my other Arc’teryx gear this jacket is simple, stylish and high quality. It keeps me warm even during the cold -30C days and is fairly wind resistant. If you need a little more wind resistance and extra warmth just throw a light shell over top. Lastly, this jacket performs well in the city and also during a variety of activities such as hiking, skiing and etc… Fantastic overall
Got this jacket on offer at a local retailer and am very impressed so far. The jacket feels much warmer than my synthetic insulation jacket of similar weight. Having the pockets behind the insulation is very nifty for keeping electronics and their batteries warm. My only niggle is that there is no "padding" behind the front zip which means that the wind chill at the chest is very noticeable when not wearing an outer shell.
I have several garments from this firm and have been very pleased with them all. This is no exception. Build and fabric quantity are excellent, fit is appropriate for the size, zippers excellent. The way that the down insulation is managed as well thought out and effective in providing a very warm jacket. Highly satisfied. Highly recommended!
