Therme Parka Men's

I bought therme yesterday , I started to wear today but it looks very old. I have a parka which I bought in 2015 looks newer than arc’tryx therme. I will return if they accept. When I wear that I feel I just done with construction jobs , looks that much dirty and dusty.

The coat fits very large. I am 6'3 220 and athletic, I bought the Xl assuming it would be a good fit as I'm XL in most things I want room in. As it turns out the Large is a bit big on me and the Medium is a bit too small and short in the sleeves. Also another frustration is that the coat has now adjustable hem or baffle at the bottom to keep in air and warmth, even in a size that fit me it would't have kept me warm at the temperatures its designed for without wearing another coat under it to create a seal for this one. Overall disappointed, everything I own for skiing, rock climbing and outdoors in general is arcteryx or other premium comparable brands and was hoping their high end athletic background would translate better to the city..... I ended up selling it for a loss and ordered something i like the look of less but functions better.

Jacket feels amazing, the sizing seems a bit large, but that's expected for a winter coat meant for layering. Perfect length for someone 180cm tall. Small size was good, and I weight around 150lb (70kg). Unfortunately I cannot recommend this jacket due to its many shortcomings. I wore the jacket for a few days with weather from -7c to -10c. The jacket kept most of my body warm, with the exception of my neck and face, which would get really cold after about 10min. Note that there was almost no wind during these days, and I was wearing a winter beanie, but no scarf. If you wear the hood up, all it does is to direct all the cold to the inside the jacket, as the hood is too large and the collar doesn't wrap around the front of the neck. Wearing the hood down, this isn't so much of an issue, as the opening for the neck gets pulled back by the hood a bit, closing the big gap. The front zipper for this jacket is missing a proper wind flap, where as other jackets, such as the Thorsen, also have a flap behind the zipper. However, I consider the Thorsen to be too long for my height. One way to alleviate some of the issues I encountered would be to wear a big scarf to close the gap around the collar and to keep it hanging in front to guard against any wind that comes through the front zipper. But I do not like that idea very much, as it adds weight and bulk when not wearing the jacket (think walking inside a shopping place). If you are willing to live with these shortcomings, and don't mind your face and neck freezing without a scarf, then go for it. Otherwise look elsewhere.

I bought this coat for my husband. Even at -23 with the wind blowing he says he stays warm. I tend to believe him because I’ve owned an arcteryx coat for over 4 years and it still keeps me warm in these cold Alaska temps. Best coat purchase ever made!

Jacket started soaking in the snow/rain and not waterproof nor water resistant anymore after a year or two of usage.

Me gusta mucho el diseño, el ajuste, como me queda, su tacto, igual la posición de los bolsillos y tamaño no están al nivel de la chaqueta para mi gusto, pero no quiere decir que estén mal, si no que no están tan a mi gusto como el resto. Lo único malo que tiene ésta parka para mí es el precio. Aunque una vez que la he pagado, sólo me queda disfrutarla usándola. Y ya no me duele el precio.

I managed to swap to this jacket after finding that the Magnus was simply not warm enough for a UK winter. I have been wearing this jacket now for the past few weeks in temperatures ranging from a few degrees centigrade up to around 12c. It does get too warm towards the top end of this range if you are moving around and if the sun comes out you're going to sweat. But at the lower end it is very comfortable and I can easily see it providing enough warmth below zero. The last few days we had some very high winds and the GoreTex does a great job of keeping this from penetrating through. Yesterday I was out and about for four hours in driving rain and stayed perfectly warm and dry underneath. The hood, although large, does a superb job at keeping out the wet. The overall quality of the parka is clearly high and it is certainly well made. This brings me to the cons. All of the pockets are a little bit on the small side. The new, larger iPhones don't fit in the outside chest pocket. Although hands fit easily into the side pockets, why not make them a little deeper? Inside stash pockets would be ideal for gloves and a scarf, and this brings me onto the collar - you are going to have to devise some way to seal out the wind at the neck because the collar is laughably big. When it is properly cold I will wear a sleeveless fleece with a high, zip-up collar to seal the neck, but at the moment I have resorted to cinching in the hood elastic to effectively narrow the opening. This however is not ideal as the hood then rubs against the back of your head and the GoreTex rubs against your neck and chin. Only other option would be to add a snap fastener at the internal collar which I may well end up doing. A scarf would work but, as I mentioned, with nowhere to stash it when not needed, I would find this annoying. One other small gripe is the lack of a decent fleece lining inside the pockets and at the neck/chin area to prevent chafing. Overall though, very impressed and the pros certainly outweighs the cons.

Was torn between Camosun and Therme. In the end I opted for the latter. Maybe I would be just as happy with the former, can't say. But, I got the Nerus (Blue) and not available in the Camosun. And the color is great. I am 5'9, 180, but a 44 chest. Large definitely correct size. It fits great, and looks really good. I am in Chicago. It has been a very warm winter so far. But the first test was Saturday. Though the temp was not very cold (between 27 and 30), the wind was blowing about 40 - 50 mph (measured, no exaggeration). It was precipitating, a mixture of snow, freezing rain, feeling like icicles piercing my face). I went for a walk with my dog to the lakefront to see the 20 foot waves. Just a cotton long sleeve t-shirt underneath. I was toasty. Did not feel one bit of wind or rain. Hood was up over my hat. The only part of me feeling any weather was the exposed part of my face above the coats color, basically my cheeks and nose. Stayed dry throughout. And while it's next test will be this coming weekend when temp is predicted to be between 2 and 12 f, based on last weekend, I foresee this being the nicest, warmest coat I have ever had (I am now 65, so I have had a lot).
