Delta 1/2 Zip Neck Herre

Beau coloris, belle matière mais coupe vraiment pas terrible. Je ne sais pas si c'est la matière du tissu ou la coupe, mais je pense plus ka coupe, le haut de cette veste est très ample sous épaules. A moins d'être le Popeye gonflé aux épinards, je doute que cette veste convienne à quelqu'un de normalement constitué. Très déçu de cette coupe, et dommage pour cette belle veste.

The Delta 1/2 was one of my favourite fleece layers for many years, unfortunately my old one finally succumbed to years of abuse so I replaced it with the new incarnation. The similarities pretty much end with the name. The new fit is baggier than the last and the material used is far inferior to the polartec fabric of the previous. The pocket on the front makes no sense for rock climbing, the shoulder pocket was much more useful. I've searched high and low online for the old style but it seems it can't be found. Here's to hoping the previous formulation returns in future seasons.

I’m wearing this now. I’ve worn it basically every day since I got it. It’s great. I like it because it is so versatile. It can be used for workouts, or unpretentiously with jeans and a t shirt, or ostensibly for rock climbing because you’re wearing Arc’teryx. It blends in in outdoor or urban settings. It looks good. It’s comfortable. What else is there to say.

Having over a dozen various Arcteryx shirt and jackets, I’ve come to know the sizing quite well with this company. Or so I thought. This is my second piece that I have ordered and the size medium was quite off. The first piece was this years model Gamma Lightweight model in a medium, and Tan color. I actually went to an REI and tried another medium in a different color, and it was completely a different fit. The salesperson and I were shocked that a company known for their fit would be so off. Now onto this Delta piece. I have the previous model deltas jacket. Fit is stellar, and as stated is fitted. I wanted a more simple and lighter weight piece so opted for this pullover. Having received it, the material is cool. Harder wearing than my current delta( also medium). But here in lies the “fitted” fit. It is not a fitted fit. The medium fits more like a large, with super saggy arms made for Popeye’s forearms. And in the shoulders the material just lays there all loose, and not slightly form fitting like it suggest. I’ll try for a small, but having bin at the Seattle arcteryx store and trying the jacket version. The small was too small, and the medium was even baggier than the pullover. Not sure what’s going on…but hope things get fixed.

The delta 1/2 zip FINALLY returned after many seasons...unfortunately, they moved away from the polartec that makes this the most well rounded pullover. The new material is too thin and doesn't quite live up to prior models
