Size is suitable for me with good experience
Versatility plus!
I want a softshell that breathes first and foremost. This Gamma Lightweight is excellent in this. That makes it a 4 season jacket- more layers in winter, less in summer, but it wears all day long because it breathes (IMHO). After that, the fit is a perfect Medium- 5'11" and 180lbs. Can layer a bit, but fine with a light layer too. Stretch and comfort are best in any of the many jackets I've had. And the blue color is a favorite of both my wife and me. Two chest pockets are awesome and the handwarmer pockets definitely come in handy! Hood is perfect and fully adjustable. This is likely the most versatile jacket I have ever owned, all things considered!
Amazing windbreaker.
Unbelievably great fit. Slight contouring, but with all the room you need in the arms. I didn’t intend on spending $260 on a windbreaker, but I don’t regret it at all.
Nice jacket, not breathable for high output
Great fit and form, nice pockets, helmet compatibility. Good wind and abraision resistance. Not adequate breathability for high output activities. I bought it for ski touring as a leave-it-on layer and have found it too warm unless temps are below ~15 degrees F, which it's not often in Utah. As another commenter mentioned, when you sweat in the jacket, it retains odor much more than other apparel. I literally can't wear it three times without washing it, and I do not generally make clothing stink.
great in-between piece
I bought this not knowing that I needed it. I have an atom hoody, an atom sl hoody and other jackets that I use all of the time but this one fills that void on the lightweight side of things. Fit on point just as it always is with Acrteryx. The jacket has a nice bit of stretch built in and provides wind resistance and light water resistance as well. The fabric is lighter and I don't expect it to be as durable but Arteryx always surprises and I know that the piece will last for years to come.
Smell transfer
Love this hoody but if you sweat in it, the smell transfers to the coat easily. In this day and age when companies can use anti stink fabric, why didn't they here. I would wear it a lot more.
Great lightweight jacket
Near perfect for early summer mornings when it’s just a little chill. Wore it today early on, and a very light drizzle was coming. Very comfy on my 2 mile walk.
It is a lightweight and durable product
I use this product during my work as a Mountain Guide and when practicing activities such as climbing or approach
