Arc'teryx  Emblem Fleece Hoody - Men's

I bought this a month ago and it already looks washed out after the first wash. The surface looks fuzzy and

I personally can't justify the amount of returns I need to do because of sizing issues. Decline of quality has killed my perception of this brand. My latest hoody ordered in large is cut for someone at least 20kg heavier than the three large exact same hoodies i bought a year earlier. I can't replace my Proton AR because the new cut sucks and the large is now meant for shorter/fatter people. Same for my 10 year old cerium. Magnus and Therme would be nice to replace, but I know i won't fit unless I gain weight.

What I don't understand is why Arc chose to use a fabric as soft as this. For me, it doesn't make any sense. The inside of the fabric is lined with fleece, so the comfort is maintained regardless of the softness of the outside fabric. Therefore, I wish that they rather went with a fabric that is tougher on the outside, instead of using a super soft material at the expense of durability. I've had mine for three months, worn occasionally under no demanding circumstances (office, leisure...), and I'm observing it has already started to pill. Even my slightly older Covert Cardigan is holding up better than this! At this price point, it is really disappointing. Fit is great. Medium fits me comfortably without any excess. I hope that the next iteration addresses the durability issue.

The Emblem Fleece Hoody exceeded my expectations in every way! The plush fleece material is incredibly soft and cozy, making it my go-to choice for chilly days. The attention to detail in the emblem design adds a stylish touch, making it a standout piece in my wardrobe. The fit is perfect, providing both comfort and a flattering silhouette. Overall, the Emblem Fleece Hoody is a top-notch addition to any wardrobe, combining style and warmth effortlessly. Highly recommended!

[Employee of arcteryx] Just received my Emblem Fleece Hoody last week and literally have not taken it off. It is the perfect hoody, the material is super thick and cozy. I am a female and wear ladies size XS-S but wanted a more over-sized hoody and I love the arm and hoody logo so decided to go for the mens XS. It is exactly what I was hoping for and fits nicely like a womens M/L (or like a unisex XS). I am excited to keep wearing this all winter long.

This is what I reach for on an early winter morning before the heat comes on. The fleecy inner is super cozy and makes getting up and around to make coffee a cheerful task. Also, good for layering over a merino wool t-neck and covering up with a windproof layer before heading out for a walk. The hood is well designed and protects my head when I choose to wear it and the body of the hoodie fits comfortably close to insure warmth.

Bought XL . I am 5’11 and weigh 180. XL is a little too big and roomy . Could try and make it work but going to exchange for Large to get the right fit for this price . Let you know how the Large fits . Wish people would add their height and weight it reviews as this helps in deciding correct size . The quality and fabric is great that’s why I am sticking with it . Really comfortable and warm .

Had it about a month now, perfect size and comfortable fit. I was a bit worried it would be to thick/warm, but it's perfect for what I wanted, ideal for a Scottish Spring, Autumn and the 3 days of summer in between. The Multiverse colour is cracking, the more pastels the better IMO. Liking the emblem on the sleeve, a nice variation.

This hoody is amazing for casual wear. The material is soft and smooth, a good overall standard fit, and mine has held up fine so far in the washer (3 washes and dries and no pilling whatsoever). Please make this hoody in more colors options. Would love to purchase Navy/Darker Blue colorway please!

Comfy and high quality hoody. The fabric has a nice weight to it, which hangs well on the body. Fit was on the looser side, but not incredibly oversized. Purchased in the colour Multiverse - hope there's more products in this colourway in future, it's very unique and nice to look at.
