It seems like every active wear manufacturer has at least a half dozen hoody offerings but Arcteryx made their Covert Hoody strikingly different with an innovative Polartec Thermal Pro sweater knit fabric. The fabric looks like wool but it's easier to launder and doesn't have the permanent stretch concerns. Beneath the sleeves are underarm gussets so you can extend your reach above your head without feeling exposed down along the hem. The Arcteryx Covert Hoody is functional outerwear for hiking, running and camping in cool weather.

In fact, I have owned one this fleece jacket before I get this black one, So I know its advantages. As for me, it can provide me any function in this cold winter, warm and windproof. It looks so fashionable, moreover, its hood could protect my head in some condition, Most of all, it touch so soft and I like its materials.

A-1 Quality
I bought one of these for my teenage son, and he was really happy about the style and warmth. The only bad thing is that he's outgrown a medium and now needs a large - and my wife wants one too! It's expensive but worth the price.

Excellent Layering Piece
As mentioned in the other reviews, this jacket is not great at stop wind. It is a bit too thin for that. However, it has a very athletic fit and provides considerable warmth. Overall a very stylish outer piece for the upper 40's low 50's temperatures, or a great layering piece underneath a wind stopping shell.

Great light jacket
This Arc'teryx jacket is great-- it's warm but breathable, light and comfortable. I'm 5'10" and bought an extra large, and it fits fine. It's perfect for a cool spring or early fall day or a light hike.
