Gamma MX Hooded Jacket

Outstanding product, I picked this up somewhat unexpectedly after it was recommended for me by someone in store. This jacket does not disappoint, it’s durable comfortable super functional and has a great fit. I think most people would be better off buying this jacket instead of the atom lt. I’ve worn it for 3 seasons and it works well even on warm evening. It’s not waterproof but will keep you dry enough, good on windy evenings. Initially I had thought it would be better with a smooth sleeve liner for better layering over a fleece but after wearing it with a tshirt I don’t think I’d change a thing anymore. Exceptional product and probably the jacket most people should buy. Though expensive I’d buy again in a heartbeat even at full price. I am 6’4” 190lbs and the large has a perfect fit for me, sleeves are long enough and the body has some room for layering without being boxy feeling, I also really like the cuffs

I’ve been waiting for a decent blue-grey Gamma MX for seasons. Finally, the "Dk Stratus" color looks amazing on the Jacket version. But why, for the love of design, did you add those bright blue contrast pockets to the Hoody? The Jacket is sleek and monochromatic, while the Hoody looks like a DIY patchwork project. The contrast is jarring and cheapens the aesthetic of an otherwise high-end piece. We buy Arc'teryx for the minimalism and technical look, not for random pops of color that don't match. Please, give us a monochromatic Hoody option. This was a massive swing and a miss.
