Veste à capuche Atom Homme

I'm using this as an insulating layer under the Alpha shell as well as just a normal layer around town on moderate days. I am 5'9" 175lbs and went with the large as this is the "fitted" cut. The large fits fine but I could probably go with the medium for a tighter fit. Very warm but also lightweight and soft. If I were just looking to use this as an insulating layer, the medium might be a better option. I love the jacket, I find it being my go-to when I run to the store. It will get more reps as the insulating layer as ski season ramps up.

This review is only really going to be relevant if you fit into what I would consider a fairly standard sizing block for apparel. At 5'11" with a 42" chest, I sit exactly in the middle of medium and large in Arcteryx sizing. A medium is just that little too snug, a large is ridiculous. In my case, Arcteryx helpfully suggests I decide "how I want my product to fit." How about you just make a product that fits as you intend it? When you look at a size chart, a medium equates to a EU 48 and a large to a EU 52, so Arc has just skipped an entire European size. I have a few Arc pieces and face this dilemma continuously. Sometimes, in the case of my recent Veilance jacket in large, everything fits except for the arm length, which overshoots by about an inch. With no velcro fasteners I find myself having to cuff a $700 jacket which is unacceptable. Sizing issues ruin what is otherwise a stunning product here. The Atom is incredibly versatile, and equally at home as a mid layer or outer layer, and the insulation is perfect for milder Autumn days. Layer up a bit and it could take you through the winter, although you'd need to size up to fit anything under it which would put you at risk of stupid arm length. I ended up going for medium in my Atom. It fits better than a large and although it's tighter than I would want, the stretch in the side panels is quite forgiving. But please Arcteryx, introduce a size that's equivalent to an EU 50 so we don't have to forever compromise on fit.

I'm a huge fan of the Atom Hoody, especially for those days which are especially frigid. This is my go-to jacket whenever the temperature drops below ~50 degrees, since it's lightweight while providing plenty of warmth and protection from the wind. The fit and feel are great - it's snug enough to keep me warm but not so tight that I'm uncomfortable. My only (minor) critique is that the sleeves are a bit long for me. Excited to bring this on my next camping/backpacking trip in the fall/winter months, since I know it'll hold up and keep me comfortable.

I love the fit, contour, design and overall feel and insulation of this hoody. The issue is the fabric is horrendous durability in regards to abrasion. After extremely mild usage of biking 2 miles 3-4 days per week with a backpack on for not even 3 months, the shoulders are wearing through and piling, the fabric is thinning. After purchase support was not helpful whatsoever and insisted it is normal "wear and tear" and not covered under the warranty. It'd be understandable to consider it wear & tear if id had it for even a year and used it frequently under certain conditions. Unusual abrasion that developed rapidly is not what I expect paying $300 for an Arcteryx product. Fortunately a store manager was very helpful and escalated the issue, but ridiculous that the after purchase associate still needs to suggest its a "one time exception", instead of recognizing the fact that the durability is poor.

As expected except the zipper is the cheapest zipper I’ve ever seen used. Less than a month after I purchased my Atom Hoody, wearing the jacket a total of ten times mainly for 15 minute dog walks, the zipper’s bottom catch fell off. It’s YKK but made of plastic, not metal. I’m now required to pay for shipping and give up having a rain coat in November for them to fix it. While it’s nice they’ll fix it, there was no apology, or effort to keep me as a loyal Arc’teryx customer. Pretty poor quality experience to be honest.

Love the fit and feel of the jacket. I'm 6'5" and 200lbs, and it fits amazing. Not too tight, it moves with me, and doesn't get all baggy or bunched up under other layers. Material is very comfortable, the jacket is pleasantly warm.

Hopefully this version is more durable that the Atom LT Hoody. I had my LT since September '22 and wore it maybe 2 months per season. I stopped wearing in Spring this year since it has abnormal wear in the back. I rarely had a backpack while using but I wear other light jackets like this one with it and they all have no issues. I tried to open a claim with Arc'teryx and I can't send the form (how convenient). The store manager where I bought it told me Arc'teryx would highly unlikely do anything about my issue. At $360 for a "hoody", you'd surely want it to last more than ~8 months in 2 years.

The most versatile piece I own. Perfect for cool and cold weather. Super stylish.

Great product, have bought 2 already and would buy more if I could!

Have had the Atom jacket for several years, I even own two! Perfect as a daily jacket for winter where I live, great mid layer for ice/rock climbing. Has held up well and has few patches but I love it !

A classic arc layer with a classic fit and style. Love this, fits well, durable and reliable. No quibbles here, worth every penny.

Versatil, everyday hoodi, under shell, hiking. I love it !

Fit of the older version (2018/2019) was perfect. New fit is so long for no reason. For this reason I don't wear it much anymore.

Lightly insulated weather resistant hoody type jacket. Good enuf for 0 degree days I would say. Maybe even less. Slightly fitted. Looks good enough to own two. I’m 5’8, 175lbs, 43” chest and medium fits perfect.

Benutze die Jacke im Alltag und auch teilweise beim Sport. Die Jacke ist für viele Temperaturen geeignet und kann bei kaltem so wie auch bei etwas wärmeren Temperaturen genutzt werden.

Love the comfort and versatility of the jacket. A small increase in water resistance would be useful but perhaps would affect the other great aspects of the jacket

Love this jacket! Packs down nice and very warm! Fits a bit slim but can still have a sweater underneath.

Le manteau polyvalent ..Un super manteau passe partout ,la taille et la coupe parfaite ,

Such a great product. Not too warm, not too cold. Perfect for mixed conditions in a temp range from 5 to 15°C or as an insulation layer below that temp.

I have an Atom Hoody (XL) from 2018 that is still my favorite jacket of all time, and I wear it constantly during the colder months. It fits me perfectly with a t-shirt or a sweatshirt underneath. I wanted to get a second Atom Hoody in Vitality Blue, but unfortunately the new sizing does not work for me: The Large is too tight around the middle and the XL is too roomy with arms too long. Very disappointing!
