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.
Hubby's Favorite Hoody
Bought this for my Hubby and he loves it. He wears it all the time stating it is his favorite jacket. He takes it on every hike and backpack trip so far. He leaves it in his car just in case it's ever cold or for me when I forget a jacket. It's soft, comfortable, warm and light. I'm jealous. I think I have to get one for me.
The best Hoody I have ever bought!
This hoody is just as good as it looks. I've worn it during skiing it as a second layer under a shell, late summer during long walks in the evening and down town as a casual great looking sweater. It's the best, and I looks just like new even after several times in the washing machine!
warm,but not great in the wind
I like this hoody as a warm sweater, but don't expect a lot of wind-resistance from it, as it was not made for this.
