Arc'teryx  Kyanite Jacket - Women's

Incredibly comfy and immediately warm. Fabric is super soft and fits really well. Good for a chill bike ride or fall walk. Layered it with my atom heavyweight on a night at the boulders and it felt like I was hanging out in a comfy sleeping bag, it took the warmth to the next nevel on a cold night.

The jacket started peeling on the sleeves only after couple weeks! The quality is not the same, so disappointed. My two year old Kyanite jacket looks better than the new one.

This revised version is perfect. The fit is more attractive. It is not so fitted that it clings, but fitted enough to look tailored and to work under another jacket as a mid-layer. It is that great length that is not cropped but not ridiculously long like so many of the other fleeces (For reference, I'm 5'7" and a size S). The fleece fabric is soft and a nice mid-weight that I can wear both outdoors and indoors. I took it to Europe as my only hotel/dinner/walkabout sweater, and with vest and rain jacket, it worked for everything. Please don't change the fit of this. Please please don't change the fit/length. The hooded version is too long for the purposes that this weight of fleece is perfect for!

I like the thinner material. The cut lays well on me. However my complaint is they dramatically shortened the torso length. I’m 6’ and previous models of the kyanite at least covered the top of my hips and waistband. This current model is cropped really short and barely reaches the top of my waistband. When I bend over, it rides up. I won’t be taking this into the mountains with me….it would be too annoyingly short to layer. It’s going to be a yoga pants soccer mom outfit instead. Please consider bringing back some length in the torso.

This is my fave arc piece...i have so many and add every time they release new colours. Whatever they have done to the fit is crazy, why would you make a fleece cropped? For perspective, I'm 5 feet tall and this new cut is too short to be used as a decent midlayer. It's also boxy but cropped so super unflattering. Wild that they did this! On a taller person it would actually be showing their stomach

This is hands down my go to fleece jacket. Thank you for making the length just right for the high waisted look and those of us who have to tolerate the longer torso. The hoody version of this line is longer and hip length. I can’t wear that style b/c it just doesn’t look right and bunches up under my layer. So THANK YOU, for designing something for us shorter women.

The fleece is very soft. However, it is too short. It is significantly shorter than the hoodie version (and the half zip Kyanite), which I don’t understand. I generally prefer jacket versions of mid layers rather than hoodies, but this is so short it’s unwearable. Very disappointing. And the hoodie has the opposite problem - it’s too long (and I’m 5’9”).

Love how warm this jacket is. Fit works for me. I do not mind that it is a bit boxy. But sleeves are waaay too long. Someone has an odd idea of how long a medium women’s sleeve should be. And I have long arms. To make do — I just roll up the sleeves and am happy. I am 5’3”, 130 lbs and I ordered a medium. Got the purple — a great color.

I returned the product as i was unhappy with the finish. You could see the back of the logo embroidered through the material. The finish felt cheap.

I love this jacket and color [Azalea] I bought is so beautiful. Soft matermail and warm. Everything is so perfect, lenght, fit an style.
