Wow wow wow
Hands down one of the best hoodies I own! I recently went to Utah and it kept me warm and comfortable all the time hiking and climbing the rocks! Thinking to get another color that’s how much I like it! It’s long enough without being uncomfortable when hiking/clombing. Pockets feet your phone and othressenials. The hood is everything, not big and not small! Perfection!
Soft and Cozy!
Absolutely love the soft and cozy fabric. The sleeves are the perfect fit, neither too short nor too long. When zipped all the way up, it hugs the body just the right amount and is surprisingly quite warm.
shorter than previous versions / thick zipper
Love the feel and quality. Dislike the shorter length than the previous versions. I pray this crop style dies soon. It's just not functional. I at least like a hoody to cover my hips.. The arms sleeves are shorter which is a plus more me since I'm short but taller girls beware.. Their kyanite jacket is even shorter. I'm 5'2 124 lbs and the medium is really too small. The thicker zipper makes the jacket bow out like a man's fit. The model wearing the black color looks like the hoody is long but it barely hits my hip bone. I guess it depends on your sport but if a jacket covers my hips while hiking I'll feel warmer. .
Nice fleece but style didn’t work for me
I have a kyanite hoody that’s several years old. It’s a medium and a bit big and I would say I almost always end up in a size small in jackets and pullovers in Arc’Teryx so I decided to order a small this time around. It did fit but they have changed the pockets so the zipper is more rigid. I have bigger boobs (34DD). The rigidity of the material around the zipper basically wouldn’t allow it to follow the curve of my body and it essentially caused the fabric to pucker out below my chest in a strange and unflattering way. Sizing up *might* have solved that problem but I think it would then be too big. The green is gorgeous in person and the fleece interior was super soft. The current version just didn’t quite work for my body.
The ideal hoody!
The Kyanite hoody has been my favorite addition to my Fall wardrobe. This hoody is incredibly soft, light and absolutely warm. I wear it as a base layer under many Arc shells, it just pairs well. When outdoor bouldering during chilly Fall/Winter months or camping days/evenings year round I find it most useful but the Kyanite hoody also gets frequent wear not just for outdoor recreation. I'm looking to buy multiple colors!
Great hoody to climb in
Excellent fit and quality. Has lasted several years worn mostly while out climbing and the fabric and seams still look pretty new! Very happy with this purchase and would buy again. lt's a very lightweight fleece layer, perfect for layering when you need something more than a sun hoody or wind breaker, but don't yet need a jacket. Great as a backup layer for chilly multipich and very comfortable to climb in.
Great design, minus pockets
Great fit and nice change to the hood profile. Bought and returned the dark teal colour: love this sweater and have 2 I swear by, but this newest version has reinforced pockets. Great for protecting the pockets, pain in the butt to open - you need to hold the material with one hand and open with the other. Not super practical so returned it. If you're not fussed about this, highly recommend the sweater.
Not the same
Received my 3rd Kyanite hoody for Xmas. I bought my first one in 2019 to wear while hiking the Camino de Santiago. I fell in love with this jacket and bought an additional one a few years ago. Both super high quality, comfortable and with a perfect hood. The one I just received seems much thinner and not as high quality. I wear the original two constantly, but not thrilled with the new one.
I don't like fleece, and I love this fleece
I wore this as my middle layer all ski season last year and it changed my layering system for cool days (0 to -20C or so). I normally wear a Proton Lightweight or similar for bc skiing, but find the Kyanite to be a really nice alternative for those warmer winter temps with just a synthetic T underneath. Fit is also really nice and it's super comfy and soft.
Excellent Essential
I’m so thrilled with this jacket. It is the softest thing and is so incredibly cozy to the point where I actually get hot sometimes, I consider this a fantastic thing because everything else I have is nowhere near as effective. I’ve already recommended it to several friends who are now buying them. Big fan. Excellent mid layer while skiing as well.
