Atom Hoody Hombre

Troisième veste ATOM commandée et je suis toujours satisfaite. 📌 En revanche, le transporteur est à déplorer. Le produit m’a été livré une semaine après la réception sur la plate-forme, après de nombreuses négociations auprès de la plate-forme de livraison. Conseil: changer de transporteur !!!!

Light, warm and stylish. Perfect jacket for almost any thing. A first choice piece of gear.

I recently purchased the Atom Hoody for my Hike on Mauna Kea. I took a pre-summit acclimation hike on March 9th, 2025 and I had too much gear on. It was a warm and sunny 51 Degree F day and I had on heavy duty insulated pants, boots and a heavy coat that ended up in my daypack. I came back the next day (March 10th) with my new Atom Hoody and Cronin pants for my summit attempt, and it was raining, cold and extremely wet. None of this was in the forecast! The forecast was for 45 Degree F Sunny day with 10% chance of rain. At the Vistor Center - the temp was 40 degrees and raining. I had on enough layers on for no rain, but I didn't think I had the right gear on for rain. I hiked for 6 hours getting 2.4 miles from the summit before turning around. I felt a real change in the weather temperature and it started to Sleet. There were only 6 of us hikers on the mountain this day. When speaking to the Rangers back at the Visitor Center - the Park Rangers confirmed a temperture at the Summit of 20 degrees, and Sleet starting at the 5 mile Mark, right where I turned around. The Atom Hoody is very much the real deal! I was very pleasantly surprised how well the jacket performed in horrific mountain weather. Super Light weight and dried very fast. There were none of the normal cold spots from wind (up and down the zipper and around the cuffs). Because of this performance, I am already looking at getting a True Shell Jacket from Arc'teryx. Awesome Product and company! I am now a huge fan and will be a customer for life!

What a weird jacket. Nothing really makes sense about it but I still kinda want it, maybe only bc it’s called black sapphire instead of navy blue and I really like the muted versatile color. The pictures on here make this jacket seem way puffier than it actually is. The way this is pictured is what this jacket should actually be, especially since they have an SL line that’s even somehow thinner than this jacket. The jacket has virtually zero insulation, it’s just the two layers of outer shell with what seems like maybe a piece of paper between them. There is no puff to it at all except for the hood which adds to the comedy of this jacket. I understand this jacket is meant to keep you cool, actually, not warm as you’d easily think otherwise by the medium puff shown in the pictures. The ventilation on the sides makes this jacket not capable of warmth in wind or breeze. For what this jacket to be as versatile as it claims to be, the jacket of all jackets in your own words, this should be a smaller permanent ventilation zone with a zipper opening under arms. The hood contradicts the entire jacket but it also adds a ton to the style appeal. The only puffed insulation in the entire jacket is in the neck and hood which makes it a little out of place in warmth that the body of the jacket is built for. The size is what it is but I disagree with it. This is cut like the now kinda fading t-shirt trend, which is meant for mediums to fit 6’1 170 lb models perfectly. Narrower shoulders and long torso. I personally don’t understand how this ever became such a standardized cut but it is. I’m 5’11 190ish lbs. Athletic lifter, not body builder. The medium is unappealing, tight at shoulders and not too long but just narrows me out in an unflattering way. The large is too long and looks sloppy especially when unzipped.

This is my third Atom. I am obviously a fan. It’s a true multi tool. It is perfect as a stand alone jacket or as an insulating layer underneath my shell. The colors of my 10 year old Atom are as vibrant as my new model. Grab one. You won’t be disappointed.
