Cárdigan Covert Hombre

I wear this to work with a button down underneath all the time. Very professional and functional

Bought this about 2 months ago as a lightweight option in and out of the office and on my adventures as a soft layer. In that role, it's good. My only issue so far is the pulling that has occurred around the zipper. I'm not wearing it under any layers very often, but it started fairly quickly. So be aware you might need to take action once a season.

I bought the full zip and loved it so I requested the 1/4 zip as a present.

Love this thing!! I can use it as a warm baselayer or a light sweater. Arc'teryx for life!

Vor über einem Jahr gekauft. Unglaublich viel getragen, weil sie so angenehm ist.

This is my go to for a jacket or sweater as it fits perfectly and has great functionality

For travel this garment is versatile and comfortable. Doesn’t wrinkle if you stuff it in your backpack!

The covert is cozy, and I pretty much wear it all day at home. I really appreciate the inner mesh front that allows for venting/temperature control, especially with the hand pockets open. For my body type, it fits a little loose. This is considered a "regular" fit under Arcteryx, and I'd definitely say it's not form-fitting. The cuffs aren't as tight as I'd like and often cover parts of my hands, unlike my other Arcteryx jackets in the same size. If you're planning to layer under this and you have small/slim build, then it will likely be fine. I'm 5'4"; 122 lbs; got a size small. Probably should've gotten an XS, but that wasn't in stock at the time.

Was shocked. Thought I was seeing things. The fabric felt great, then first day noticed pilling on the underside of forearms from resting on a bar. The jacket is now so pilled I only wear it under a shell as warmth.

I bought this jacket back in September, worn indoors during lockdown. It fits well, very comfortable and warm. Now the bad bit. It pills. A lot. I've not been wearing it with a pack (or even outdoors!), and it has pulled badly in some areas. For the price, this shouldn't happen. I agree with other reviewers that this should be withdrawn from sales until the material issue is sorted. Very disappointed.

I was waiting for months for the whiskey jack colour to come back into stock, as I have owned this sweater in the past in other colours with amazing wear. Unfortunately, the fabric has changed and there was major pilling all over the front of the sweater with casual wear, all in less than a week. After contacting Arc'teryx support I was advised that pilling is normal during the lifespan of the material. I am extremely disappointed not only with the quality of this fabric, but also with the response I received. Save your money and purchase a cheaper brand... you will probably get a better fabric and customer aftercare.

Loved Arcyteryx because of the longer sleeves. Owned a Covert Hoody before buying this Covert Cardigan and now there is an inch difference in sleeve length between the two. Has Arcteryx changed their sizing to make their sleeves shorter? This is a size L.

I bought this fleece a few months ago and did not read the reviews before I got it. I washed it inside out and everything seemed to be fine. It is nice enough for a Friday casual at the office, and warm enough for a hike during the fall and being around the campground. The true test came just last week that I had to carry a backpack for a few hours. Sure enough this thing pilled as mentioned in other reviews. It is very noticeable in areas where the backpack or straps were rubbing. The functionality of it has not changed, but now it looks like a cheap fleece you would get anywhere else. That is too bad because this is not the quality you would expect from the brand, I might have to trade it in for some credit at the store next November.

Love the fit and look but it started pilling within the first week that I got it. I had to invest in a de-pilling device which helps but the cardigan now requires regular maintenance for it to look nice. Not practical for regular wear, I would spend your money on something else.

I own three of these and they are durable, warm and fit great. Issue is the zipper gets stuck on the small flap at the chin, making it difficult to zip completely.

I have the same pilling issues as others. Paid a lot of money and take great care of it. My last one lasted 10+ years without pilling. This one started pilling almost immediately. Crazy, and very dissappointed. I have a lot of Arcteryx stuff but this will make me rethink the brand.

I have two covert cardigans. The form, fit, and function are perfect for me. I love the material, fit is snug (I am 6'2", 180, and lean), and it keeps me warm on cold days. Primarily wear as an extra layer in the home and for nights out. To me, too nice for trails. Despite the close fit, I go with the Large as the XL would be too long in the sleeves and body.

This cardigan was my ‘gateway drug’ into the brand, and I’ve bought multiple since getting hooked. More stylish than typical fleece jackets, and constructed with an impeccable eye for detail and finish, it is astoundingly warm with just a t-shirt beneath it.

I just bought this for a relative and I am incredibly happy with this purchase. The covert cardigan is very soft and warm. It's sleek design allows it to look professional in the office and in the outdoors!

bought this about 8 months ago to replace a Patagonia one that I have had for a couple years. Loved it so much I have now purchased 3 others from the outlet! perfect for chilly days heading to the office, great for some fall yardwork, and a great midlayer for a good hike.

I have a Covert full zip which was from a prior season (2018) as well as one that was recently purchased. I am not able to always get Arcteryx gear and fit in person as many stores do not readily stock what I'm looking for. This was a purchase made online based on measurements and my size. What is unusual about this cardigan is the tight fit of the sleeves and the tight underarm. If I wear the sweater with anything but a thin T shirt, the elbows are far too tight, and the underarms wick moisture occasionally. I'm 6'0", 190 lbs with a 34" arm, and the sleeves cover my knuckles. The body fits okay across the chest, so I would hate to go up a size and have even longer sleeves! Not sure who these sweaters are designed for. On the positive side, the garment is extremely well made. I don't seem to experience the pilling described in posts here, though I'm also not machine washing the sweater. Earlier Covert sweaters were wool blend (yes, very high quality), the new versions are woven synthetic facing with liner. I do see the collar has been redesigned for 2020 to a more cuff-style instead of the older structured panel design. Personally, the new cut looks ordinary and doesn't present as a high end garment. I could compare with other brands, but was advised not to do so. Let's just say it's a disappointment, given the usually high standards from Arcteryx. I appreciate the high quality of the garments, but a bit of attention to the fit and collar for 'normal' people might be something to consider.

Fit and feel are great, but this product should be recalled as the material started pilling within a few wears (inside only during lockdown and before i washed it) and has only gotten worse. Looks super shabby now. I’ve been told by Arc’teryx that this is to be expected if i wear it as an outer layer (!) which seems ridiculous. Like many other recent reviews, my suspicion is cost cutting has lead to an inferior material. Buyer beware!
