Review for the Arc'teryx Atom LT

As my new favorite article of clothing, the Arc'teryx Atom LT boasts features the will keep you comfortable in a wide range of environments and activities.

Men's Atom LT Jacket

Women's Atom LT Jacket With Hood

The Atom LT, available with or without a hood, uses Polartec® Power Stretch® with Hardface® Technology to provide a 4-way stretch fabric with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to bead water and repel harsh winds.

A great DWR fabric.

In addition to wind and water repellence, this insulated jacket is lightweight, packable and excellent for athletic endeavors in both mild and cold climates. Its breathable and stretch side panels do not restrict movement and help to maintain a comfortable body temperature.

Both the jacket and hoodie offer two hand pockets, internal chest pocket, and can be packed into its sleeve at about the size of a Nalgene bottle.

At a price that is consistent with most other Arc'teryx products, both the Atom LT Jacket ($199) and Hoodie ($219) offer top of the line technology that is guaranteed to get you through your greatest adventures in the years to come.

If you want to take your outdoor activities to the next level, but lack the necessary gear to do so, the Atom LT is a great start, and I am sure Santa Claus would love to bring to one this Christmas.
