Cerium Hoody Mujer

I absolutely love this jacket and get compliments ALL the time, but I cannot believe how many feathers I pull from it every day. I have only owned it since November 1, 2018 and have taken exceptional care of it, I have not even washed it. I haven't even worn it hiking or skiing as I was worried something would happen to it. I recently noticed tiny pin-sized holes on the outside of the right hand pocket and one under the left arm sleeve. I cannot imagine how these holes could have occurred as I do not wear this jacket while doing anything that can cause harm to it. TONS of down comes out of the pin-sized holes every day and its awfully frustrating. I currently own a Patagonia down jacket that I have put through the ringer for nearly 4 years while hiking through heavy brush to mucking horse stalls, and I haven't had any damage or feathers poking out. After owning this Cerium LT Hoody for barely 3 months, I have to say I am very disappointed in the quality for the price I paid. For nearly $400, I expected this jacket to not have any issues for years.

Love the colour (with two tone zipper and hood rim) and the fit and warmth.

This is a very lightweight and warm jacket. It's packable, which is great for traveling and commuting. The price point is steep which is expected given the brand's typical quality and design, however, after owning this jacket for about 3 months the down feathers are spilling out everywhere. I'm astonished at how poor the quality is, given the price, and wish I hadn't purchased.

Wonderful versatile jacket. I am someone who runs on the cold side so I needed a lightweight jacket for that extra warmth when taking breaks while hiking and skiing. The jacket packs down to almost nothing and warms me up pretty quickly if I am starting to get cold. It is also great just for everyday use during the fall and winter days I have not had an issue with the feathers leaking yet.

J’ai acheté cette veste en Norvège . Pour un très petit poids la veste est très chaude . Parfaite pour la mettre dans un sac à dos . Peut être utilisée en ville aussi car la coupe est ajustée et peu volumineuse .Donc très seyante aussi

I wore this hoody WAY more than I expected over the last year. It has had a lot of use, and still looks great. It is extremely versatile - I've used it: 1) in Victoria BC where it's an excellent fall-winter-spring jacket. Occasionally I pair it with a rain jacket, and I really don't need anything else. 2) for fieldwork in Kugluktuk/Cambridge Bay, Nunavut (November and April-June). In temperatures of about -5/-10C, I could wear this hoody with a fleece and neck warmer, and need nothing else to stay warm. In REALLY cold temperatures, it was a fantastic layer under a parka. The jacket holds up to rain and wind better than I expected. While down obviously isn't great when it's wet, I have sometimes been caught out in the rain. The hoody is somewhat water resistant, so I'm fine unless it's pouring. Likewise, it's not windproof. When it's very windy you can feel exactly where the seams are located, but that takes more wind than I expected. The pockets are great- they zip shut and are large enough for a smartphone and your hand. I wear a size M, which is typical for me.

Definitely do not regret this purchase!! It is well worth the money and will keep you warm all day

Fits well, light weight, warm, looks good, packs light and well. Love it! Look forward to use it in Nepal

Overall love the style, look, fit and warmth of this jacket but incredibly disappointed in the quality. The down feathers are leaking out the back seams. I thought this would subside after a couple wears but now I am embarrassed to put it on as it looks like I have two cuts down the back of the jacket. For such an expensive down jacket, in comparison to competitors, I expected more from Arc'teryx. This is the 5th item I have owned from Arc'teryx and the only one I would not recommend.

I wear it everyday. It is the best compromise item you can possibly wear: if it is cold, it provides perfect insulation, if it is warm, you never feel too warm. I sometimes wear it as an outerlayer when I have to stop for a few minutes so that I don't get cold. It packs super small, beautifully cut. For Chamonix, it's a must have all year around item.

I am extremely disappointed in my recent purchase of this jacket. Given the price, I would expect it to last me at least a few winters with normal wear. Instead, after using the jacket about 3 times per week for just a few months, I am noticing the down shedding and the material giving way. I wear this from the house to the car to the office or errands and cannot think of how I would have torn the fabric. No rock climbing or downhill skiing here. I do not dare to wash it for fear it will fall apart.

Hallo, ich habe die Jacke jetzt seit einigen Wochen täglich in Gebrauch und bin einfach nur begeistert. Sie ist federleicht und hält angenehm warm. Besonders gut finde ich, das die Daunenfüllung an Achsel oder Ellenbogen sich nicht verschiebt. Bei anderen Daunenjacken war die Füllung oft schon nach wenigen Tagen verrutscht und es gab kalte Stellen. Wenn ich überhaupt was bemängeln müsste - der Reisverschluss erscheint mir etwas sehr dünn und zierlich, hier wird sich noch zeigen, wie lange er hält. Im Vergleich zur Atom light hoody fällt die Cerium deutlich kleiner aus. Bei der Atom passt mir Grösse L genau, die Cerium musste ich in XL nehmen.

This jacket is incredebly light and feels cosy, and it gives great freedom of movement. I have tried on this as well as the Thorium AR and Cerium SV jacket. The Cerium LT is the lightest of those three, but it is also least warm. I get cold extremely easily and I would say that for me the jacket would be great for hiking with temperatures around 5-10 degrees Celsius. Since I wanted to have a jacket for a bit colder conditions as well I bought the Thorium AR in the end, which is only little heavier. A real drawback of the Cerium LT is the fixing system of the hood. While I loved the fixing system in the Cerium SV jacket, in the Cerium LT jacket if you tighten the strap in the hood instead of keeping the hood out of your forehead it pulls it down the forehead even more until the hoods covers the eyebrows, which I do not find comfortable. I usually wear size S in jackets, but this jacket suited me better in M.

J'adore ce manteau pour m'entraîner a la marche rapide en hiver il est léger et juste assez chaud pour cela. Très confortable et les couleurs sont superbe

Very lightweight and warm jacket/hoody. It is puffy. I own the previous season version and I found that it was lacking a few important features – a draw string at the hip – that I'm glad to see it appear on this year's version. Without a means the tighten the bottom of the hoody, it can get fairly chilly. The women's design is contoured for the hip but it's important to keep in mind every woman's body is different, so the draw string is incredibly important to have to adjust for your body if, for example, you have narrow hips and there's extra room in the jacket around your hip area. I'm also surprised that the stitching has come loose around where the cuff of my hood meets the body fabric. Not sure how this happened soon after only gentle wear (just walking)! I just taped it for now, but I'm surprised at the craftsmanship for a $450+ jacket.

My favourite down jacket ever! feels super light, and comfortable and warm at same time! & Looks amazing.

I never write reviews about clothing. Ever. Until now. I had to take the time to seek out the review section for this jacket. This is THE perfect down-fill jacket for me. The fit is spot on. I'm a rather small person. 4'11" and about 95LBS. Its almost impossible to find a down jacket that fits everywhere. I bought another brand of down jacket and it was such a weird fit even though the size was XS. The sleeves were way too long, and the body fit was way off. I had to return it. The Cerium LT Hoody fits everywhere. The sleeves are the right length not super long like other jackets. The body length is also exactly right. There is enough room when zipped up that I can wear a base layer and another medium layer (if needed). The hood also fits really well around my head. Its stays cinched up and doesn't slip off like other hoods, or get in the way. Performance wise, it is super warm. I can wear a base layer, and be warm enough running around town or doing mildly active things. It also packs down nicely into the stuff bag. The water resistant finish is also pretty nice. The water beads off and doesn't soak in right away. Enough time to run for cover or put on a waterproof layer. This is my first Arcteryx product and I am very satisfied with this purchase. The not so great thing about this jacket is that is it SO expensive. I am hoping that the price is worth it as I expect many years of wear out of this product. Next I need to find a shell to wear over this for other winter activities. But since the price is prohibitive...it may be long time before I can afford to do that. So to all the petite ladies looking for a down jacket that FITS. This is the one for you!

I love this jacket! It is very warm on it's own but also works great as a layering system. It runs a little small but I know this is because it's meant to be layered. It packs down into it's own stuff sack which also doubles as a nice travel pillow. I bring it everywhere when I travel, you just can't beat the warmth for the weight!!

This jacket is my go to for all things semi cold. It leaves enough room for me to put another layer underneath and fits underneath a shell so wonderfully. I use this jacket to belay in on chillier days to keep myself warm during rest periods. It keeps me warm and it not bulky at all. Overall an incredible jacket.

I loved this jacket for all the reasons I listed in the PROS: so lightweight, yet keeps me very warm. Resists water nicely. I loved it so much that I bought one for my daughter, who is the same petite size. Problem is, I washed it according to directions. Put it in the dryer at no heat with wool balls. Unfortunately - a bummer, really - it shrunk just enough that it is a bit snug. I tried my daughter's jacket and can feel the difference. But at this price and for all the PRO reasons, I won't give it up. I just have to be careful what I wear underneath - nothing bulky. I would recommend that drying directions be: air dry. It will dry in a jiffy!

I got this jacket for Christmas and so far I love it. It's great for ski touring which I find is what I use it most for. I do find it almost too warm if I am moving, though, and not quite warm enough during transitions especially if it's colder out. It is not enough to really bother me that much though because as soon as I start moving again I warm up. My one issue with this jacket is in the inner elbows and the armpits. The down will simply migrate out of those areas as soon as I bend my arm. The synthetic insulation seems to be in a strange spot as well, more toward the back rather than closer to the chest where a backpack strap might sit. This might just be my body but in the future I would love it if there was a larger patch of synthetic insulation in the armpits and maybe some different baffling in the elbows. As well I found the torso to be a little snug across the chest. I'm 5'8 and 150lb and am usually a very solid medium but I would almost consider getting a large. Best to try it on with what layers you think you'll wear first.

I was so excited to get this jacket at Xmas. The reviews were good. However it does not keep me warm. We have had such a mild winter (Toronto). I can't imagine how poorly it would perform it was a normal winter. Even with a wool sweater underneath, it is not adequate. A shell would provide the same protection. I would not recommend this brand nor will I buy again. For the price point, the performance is very poor.

I have only great things to say about this jacket. It has become my every day winter go-to. It's extremely comfortable and lightweight, not heavy, cumbersome or constrictive like other winter jackets. The design allows for flexibility and movement. It's warm and breathes extremely well. I live in Minnesota, so I'm no stranger to the cold. Having a jacket that I can go out into the elements on a daily basis and be comfortable is essential to enjoying winter in our state. This piece is great as a stand alone or midlayer. My favorite aspect is the ease of movement and no constriction, while staying warm and cozy.

I purchased this hoody on December 2015. I trusted Arcteryx's quality, since I have very positive experience with the hardshell jackets and middle layer. However, this Cerium LT hoody, keeps leaking down. I'm not sure whether it can maintain the same level of warmth as promised after several months. Quite disappointed!!
