Horrible construction

Bought this jacket 3 months ago and it’s already got holes in it from everyday wear. Expected something at this price point and built for outdoor sports to last much longer than this. Disappointed.

No, I do not recommend this product.

Nice bit the Atom AR is better and costs less.

2 years ago
I was expecting this Thorium Hoody to be a major step up in warmth and comfort after reading its reviews and price tag. Sure, it's nice but at best only slightly warmer than my two Atom AR hoodies. My principal gripe though, is about the cuffs. The Thorium lacks the extended elasticized cuffs and instead has a 1/4 inch elastic band, allowing cold air to enter the sleeves at times. The elasticized cuff of the Atom AR (and LT) is one of the best and smartest features of any jacket I've ever worn. This feature should be on every Arcteryx jacket intended for warmth. No excuses.

Nice jacket

2 years ago
I haven’t had the jacket for long but so far it been really good. I am 5’9” and 175p the Large fits me great. I bought this jacket to be my around town mid range down jacket. And if need be throw it under my Rush jacket for cold days riding. The weight/warm feels nice for those cold but not crazy cold days. I’ve had a Thorium in the past and my only issue with that jacket was I would get wind up the bottom. This new one seems to of been redesigned and that no longer happens. Pros- fit, high collar, fleece lined pockets, cell chest pocket, warmth, zipper and pull tabs work smoothly Cons-no fleece lining on the collar. Nice to have for warmth and keeping the colour from getting discoloured. Arcteryx prob has a reason why they didn’t include on this model but for my intended use I’d prefer to have it.
Q: Pros:
A: fit, high collar, fleece lined pock

A: No fleece in collar

Amazing multi purpose jacket

2 years ago
I recently purchased the Arcteryx Thorium Hoody and I am thoroughly impressed with its quality and performance. It is incredibly warm and durable, making it a great option for low output outdoor activities or a daily urban winter jacket. The materials and construction are top-notch, providing a cozy and comfortable fit. The lined pockets, hoody and hem sinch are thoughtful features that add to the overall practicality of the jacket. If layered properly I can stay warm in the extreme Canadian temperatures, down to -20/-25 with a light base layer and a fleece. Even with just a sweater underneath, the jacket performs well in temperatures around -10/-15. Overall, Like with most puffy jackets some cold air might go through the seams that separate the down chambers, I mitigate this by wearing a soft shell or fleece underneath or my Beta LT when there is a lot of wind. I highly recommend the Arcteryx Thorium Hoody and believe it is worth every penny.
Q: Pros:
A: Warmth and build quality
Q: Cons:
A: Cold air goes through the seams
Q: Activity
A: Casual city, Low output activities

Yes, I recommend this product.

Fit and Quality problems.

2 years ago
I just received my Thorium Hoody to replace Alpha Lightweight jacket because Alpha has thin lining and relese down to fleece and this Thorium is so tight, I can berly bend arm and fit hands in to pockets and also loose thread and actually some of trim not sawn on to jacket, its possible that this jacket was pulled to control and dumped back to wrong pile before tags were insawned, but still there should be no loose or unsawn parts. This goes goes back today, I am very upset, Im gonna have to wait for refund and order again. This is third time I have to return items for quality issues in last 3 months
Q: Pros:
A: Down

Durable!

2 years ago
I have been wearing this non-stop here in Aspen. My favorite feature is the fleece lined pockets. They are really nice on the hands. The good is also very good. Zippers? Top notch. I'm 5'8" 160 lbs and I like the way the large fits. I have the Thorium Parka in Medium but prefer the larger fit of this jacket. It's not a huge difference in size between M and L for the Thorium.
Q: Pros:
A: Great hood, internal pockets
Q: Cons:
A: Nothing that I can see
Q: Activity
A: Everyday wear

Shoulders good, waist not good

2 years ago
So it seems pretty warm considering it weighs nothing, though yesterday was -7 and it wasnt super warm. But the waist and lower back design is not comfortable, its too tight, feels like I’m wearing a corset. Its kind if a ridiculous aspect of the coat. I got a Medium, I feel a Large would be too big in the shoulders etc. I cant wear a thick shirt under this, I can barely zip it up as it is. Considering a return or an exchange. I’m 5’11, 197Lbs athletic-ish build.

No, I do not recommend this product.

you should def get a large. i am 5'7 180lbs and i got a medium bc i thought it fit better than the large (but i did consider the large) give your 20lbs extra and more heights. sounds like L it is.

TLDR: Some nice upgrades, but too many issues for the price to keep. I ordered the new Thorium Hoody in the Forage color in size small which I ended up liking a lot better than the black that I ordered 2nd. Problem is, I was sent the size Medium instead of the size I ordered. That's alright though as these things happen - no big deal. Since the returns site is non-functional, I purchased the small in size black since it would be a faster process than waiting for an email with a return link, but when I got the jacket, the first was virtually identical to the size medium that was accidentally sent to me the first time. In fact, the fit and feel of the jacket in black is somehow worse: the sleeves are too baggy for someone of a slimmer build, the cuffs don't form a seal around the wrist to keep out drafts, and in the body of the jacket the fit was identical to the medium - virtually nothing felt different. I do like the face fabric as my main issue with a lot of down jackets is they just feel too delicate. Like the Thorum AR that came before this, I really do like how sturdy and durable it feels compared to something like the Cerium jackets, so that's great. The jacket does feel reasonably warm as well but maybe not as lofty as I was hoping. I tested the jacket for warmth in the recent 10°F cold, but since the small fit the same as the medium, it didn't feel right and it was drafty in the jacket. Also, the lining in the pockets is top-tier and it's one of my favorite new features. It's a bit strange how the fit in the smaller size was somehow worse than the size medium. I'm 5'9 and 150 lbs with a slim build, and I'm tempted to try size XS, but I think I'm done with the whole online ordering experience as things just aren't meeting expectations. The nail in the coffin too was the comment from my wife about how looked cheap for the price. The forage color does look better for sure, but I'll put this one aside until I can maybe try it on in the store. I'm done trying to make this work online, and will most likely pick up the Atom Heavyweight Hoody instead.
