A favorite : )
I love the Delta Jacket. I have the Kyanite LT, Kyanite, Proton's, Atoms, vests, and shell's, and they all serve their purpose, BUT the Delta jacket is my favorite. I love how light it is, but still provides warmth, but in a way that feels well regulated - it breathes just the right amount, has a fit that stays close to the body but with a tad bit of room that allows for comfortable range of motion, layers well, and feels sooo comfortable. Overall, it has great functionality, is a pleasure to wear, yet retains a good style I can wear at work or around town. I wear this the most out of my Arc'teryx clothing (I do live in Southern California). I hardly write reviews, but I had to write one about the Delta Jacket
“Marry, marry, ho!” A Magic Jacket !!!!!
“Marry, marry, ho!” Winner Me... me.. A must have Arcteryx piece. I have been wearing for many years now. The fabric is nice and unique. Super Light weight. . I liked old style that Logo on the side(a sense of lowkey :P) I wish it comes with Half Zip style in the future. and mostly Please Arcteryx Want to Win Arc’teryx Gear? YES YES YES.. 777 LUCKY 777.. 369 “Marry, marry, ho!”
Awesome Mid-Layer
I picked up the Delta Jacket as a light layer for early spring runs and chilly mornings, and it’s exceeded expectations. It’s also been perfect for climbing at higher elevations and works great as a mid-layer in colder temps. Some reviews knock it for being too light, but that’s the point—this jacket shines when you’re active and need breathable, low-bulk insulation. The fabric breathes well, the chin guard adds comfort, and the chest pocket is a nice functional touch. Plus, the Soulsonic blue color looks awesome. Well worth it if you’re using it for what it’s built for.
Genius fleece!
Weight to warmth ratio is amazing for such a lite jacket. The layered fleece pattern holds an impressive amount of body heat. This jacket is obviously not an outer layer for super cold or windy conditions. But as a mid-layer over a long-sleeved tshirt and under a decent shell, you can maintain body heat with activity in cooler to cold conditions. I have been wearing mine since early fall and into our cold midwest pre-winter. All that has been required is a change from an uninsulated shell to insulated to manage the temps from 30s to single digits. I love this jacket!
Not a wow item, just okay
I own a few Arcteryx items, and they all feel amazing worn. I didnt find the same enjoyment from the Delta jacket. In comparison, I found the fit to be a bit too large (it should fit more snug), and I found it, in comparison, more stiff and constricting. I think there are better mid-layers on the market from other brands, including from Arcteryx.
Need to Revisit the Previous Delta Jacket Specs
I am a long time Arcteryx gear user. In my opinion, the fabric was superior as to comfort for previous generations of the Delta jacket, with pockets. Sleeve length of the size medium was at least 2" longer than the sleeve length of a size medium, superior Kyanite jacket. Body length of the current Delta jacket in a size medium is approximately 3'' longer than the size medium Kyanite jacket. The current version of the Delta jacket seems to be designed for wearers over 6-feet tall.
Hi there. Thank you for sharing your feedback on the Delta Jacket. We appreciate you highlighting the differences you’ve noticed in fit and fabric compared to previous versions. Your insights are very helpful as we continue to refine our designs to better meet the needs of our community.
Looks nice, not very warm.
It is really too bad that Arcteryx designers decided to move away from the warm polartec fabric that they used in the Delta for so many years. It was such a great, versatile product. I have several of the old Delta's in many different colours that I wear constantly, over a tee shirt in the house, when going out for urban activities, and it is a staple when I go hiking. If the temperature drops, I just put an Atom hoody over the old Delta and tee shirt and it is perfect. The new jacket looks nice but it feels too thin and cold on my skin and any body warmth gets removed quickly because it is so permeable to air. There are already lots of thin Arcteryx products for running and other outdoor activities so they needn't have changed this one. Please bring back the old Delta, maybe as a "retro" product. A lot of people would buy it.
Hello, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We’re sorry to hear that you’re disappointed with the new Delta Jacket material. We understand how much you appreciated the warmth and versatility of the previous Polartec fabric. It’s clear that the old Delta was a perfect match for your needs, and we appreciate you highlighting how it worked in various settings, from casual wear to outdoor activities. We will definitely pass your thoughts along to our design team for future consideration as we continue to innovate and refine our products. Thanks again for sharing your experience!
basically tissue paper, not a "jacket"
I bought this to replace an older Arc'teryx softshell jacket, which has been my primary skiing and climbing and ice and everyday jacket for years. I think it was a hooded Epsilon, but not certain. My old jacket has several patches, and sewn holes from sharp rocks and branches (I play hard). Started getting threadbare in places, time to upgrade. I keep the hood rolled up and barely use it, so don't need it. Figured this Delta looked about the same, though it only has 3x pockets instead of the awesome 5x of my old jacket. The old jacket rocked, wish I could just buy it again. I couldn't find this in the store, and it was way too busy in there, so ordered online. I was in a hurry to get a replacement jacket, if I had felt this thing, I never would have bought it. Certainly returning it. Didn't even try it on -- it is like a flimsy long underwear top with a zipper. The material feels like tissue paper. Hold it up to the light and you can see through it. You can blow air through the material with no resistance. I would shred this if I wore it outside, and it would do nothing to block the wind. Water or snow would go right through. Not at all what I was looking for, and not at all what I would consider a "softshell" outer layer jacket. More like a very expensive and very thin long underwear top, with a bunch of zippers. If I bothered bringing a mid layer, I'd bring something substantial and warm, like a fleece or micropuff, not something so ephemeral and pointless. I have a few heavy short sleeved cotton tshirts which would be warmer than this Delta "jacket". Maybe this is for those skinny runner types who can't carry an extra ounce but are cold all the time, where a tiny amount of extra coverage goes a long way. But it is certainly not for me, and is not at all what I expected. Particularly for $200. Back to the search for a new jacket. Hopefully find something with enough pockets...
3-season staple
The Delta Jacket is a nice weight for everyday use, and a nice lightweight layer for active use. The fit is a little roomy, but not at all oversized. I think the more casual fit is why I led with "everyday use." I've worn it a half dozen times, but now that winter has hit southwest Colorado, I expect it will become a staple piece in the coming months.
Too light.
I have an Arcteryx fleece from 10 years ago that I wear as a mid layer and outer layer for many occasions and absolutely love it. This fleece is not a mid-weight IMO, it is a very light weight. If you hold it up to a window you can see through it. Also, it's tough to pay this much for recycled water bottles.
Hi Jake. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Delta Jacket. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the current version and that it is too light for your needs. We appreciate your comments and we will make sure to pass them to our team.
