Cerium Hoody Men's

Long time user of ARC’TERYX gear. Recently purchased first puffer and absolutely love it. I’m 5’11” 190lbs and the fit is perfect on the size L. I can wear something as light as a T under it or a light fleece/pullover for extra warmth. Make no mistake this jacket will keep you WARM and TOASTY at least into single digits F and maybe beyond but haven’t tested it further.

I bought this to use out on the fire line during the Palisades fires in California. It gets chilly at night on the coast. I used this jacket everyday for 2 weeks and it not only kept me warm, but it was breathable and stood up to some harsh use. I love this jacket would recommend to anyone looking. It has become my gi to.

In a blatant cost-cutting exercise, they decided to use one of the most weak and feeble zips I've ever seen on any item of clothing. I gave it the benefit of doubt, but it failed after only 4 days use. Returned for a refund and bought a different brand. They really should know better...

Everything is good, warm and light. The only thing is that the small size is too small for me and the medium is a little big. The outer jacket can't fit because it is a small size.

I purchased this jacket on December 2024, and after only six weeks of barely using it, the down is already leaking. The feathers are settling in odd areas of the jacket, and there’s barely any left at the back, leaving me exposed. This is extremely poor quality for the price. I deeply regret purchasing it, as I was hoping it would last a good few years. I do not recommend this product at all.

To say the least, this jacket is disappointing and not at all what I would expect for the price tag and from the brand. I have owned it since August 2023, and have worn very infrequently over the year and 4 months (I have 6 other jackets I wear and have a work coat that I wear daily). - the insides of the pockets have basically started to disintegrate. All I carry in my pockets are my phone, my wallet occasionally, and my fob to my flat. - the zip pops open in the seam. This means I have to tug it out to do it back up again. It can be extremely embarrassing when I’m out and about and this happens. I bought a medium, and it is by no means tight on me. For some perspective I wear small T-shirts. - the front of the jacket now has around 4-5 holes in them. I genuinely believe this is from the feathers themselves poking their way through the material as it is that fine and delicate, I say this as one of the holes I did notice the feather and I tried to poke it back in and noticed that it has caused a tear. - the shoulder area has two large rips also in different places, again I believe from the same thing. - the threading down where the zip connects to the material has began to fray all the way down. If Arc’teryx try to resolve this issue with me I will update this review.

I'm really happy with the Arc'teryx Cerium jacket. It strikes a great balance between functionality and design without going overboard. The first thing you’ll notice is how incredibly lightweight it is, making it perfect for both everyday use and outdoor adventures. What sets this jacket apart is that it doesn’t just keep you warm—it actually helps regulate your body temperature, which is a game-changer when you're moving between different environments. The hood adjustment system with the zip is another highlight—it’s simple but effective, and I didn’t realize how much I’d appreciate it until I used it. I also love the idea of having a separate pocket to stow the jacket—it keeps things neat and organized. That said, if the stow pocket itself had been waterproof, it would’ve been even better. Overall, it’s a thoughtfully designed jacket with excellent performance and a few minor areas for improvement. Highly recommended!

Great jacket, slim fit and super warm. The only note is just about the zipper which could be a little bit bigger.

2.5 stars really, based off longevity not function. 3 years into use and the zipper, specifically the insertion pin, is blown and jacket will not zip. The jacket would still be in use otherwise. While it was well used in wild places, I expected a longer life. That said, up until that point, the jacket preformed great. It’s light, warm, and highly packable. It provides a reasonable amount of wind protection. It keeps it’s loft with light to medium saturation. I took it everywhere. While the jacket preformed, and with me admitting that I put the jacket to the test, I will be shopping a different manufacturer when replacing and hoping for a longer life of working parts.
