Atom Hoody Hombre

My Atom Hoody has become a go-to in my gear rotation. Whether I'm running or commuting. Its versatility lets me layer up or wear it solo with confidence. I’m also a big fan of the SoulSonic colorway. For fit, function, and range, it’s a top pick.

Have the Black/Soul/Electra jacket in XL. Super comfortable and versatile. But not impressed with the overall quality. Already noticing discolouring in the interior neckline of the jacket. This has only been worn on walks and everyday use. Not for climbing boulders. Not impressed overall and would appreciate a generous discount code and exchange for a fresher piece. Considering the price, I am disappointed. Photos can be provided upon request.

Jacket is great for any season as it can be worn in the summer on cool mornings or on days as an insulation piece when it gets close to freezing.

Excellent jacket from a materials and quality perspective, but the revised fit has hurt what made the old jacket special. I get that you've modified your clothes to offer more inclusive sizing, but as an individual with broad/muscular shoulders and arms I find it incredibly difficult to find clothing that actually fits comfortably in the chest/arms without looking like a dress around the waist (even with the cinch cord). The old Arcteryx Atom jacket was perfect, and I know that there are many people out there who came to love Arcteryx for that very reason, the uncompromising fit for those athletic individuals who use the gear for its intended purpose (climbing, skiing, mountaineering) and I feel that the old fit is what truly set the brand apart from the competition. I know that there are many others who feel this same way. I understand the difficult position whereby the brand needs to design a fit that will sell product, however in my opinion with the rise of weight loss drugs such as Ozempic and the increasing prevalence of gym culture among today's youth, I believe there will be more people who share my opinion in the coming years. A potential solution: Offer your best selling pieces (Atom, Proton, Cerium, Alpha, Beta, Thorium, Gamma, Delta) in both a revised fit (regular) and the old fit (slim). That way everybody can get the fit that works for them in the product they want, and I'm confident you move enough volume in those pieces (certainly the atom) to justify the additional product line. Thank you for hearing me out.

Second Atom - seems to be sized a bit larger in the XL than a few years ago but still a good fit. Cuts wind better than you'd expect. The 2-tone looks way better in person than I thought it would, pretty boss colour combo.
