If you are going to battle the cold, having the right weapons and knowing how to use them is the key to victory. The Arcteryx Hercules Jacket for Men is a musthave piece when building your arsenal. Longshag, comfy fleece lines the inside of the Hercules, holding in body heat while the smooth external face fabric, with exceptional breathethrough capabilities, keeps moisture under control. This formfitting midweight insulation layer can be worth under your shell to add a powerful punch in the face of the cold, or alone on a day when you just need to fight a light chill.
great jacket
Very warm and cozy. Sizing runs large - if you normally wear a large I recommend sizing down. Works for just bumming around or as a layer in extremely cold weather. Highly wind resistant.
great, perfect
I love my new Arcteryx Hercules, very lightweight Jacket but at the same time warm protection, slim design, not so heavy and so large, same stretch and shortly design like a Easy Rider Arcteryx Jacket that I have and love, but little less warmer than this. The Cactus color is much more intense than on the product images, less vibrant or brilliant and more darkness green, really beautiful. Simply: all I expected from Arteryx on this piece of gear. Thanks to Altrec, always a good shopping experience, one of my favorites on line shops.
nice jacket
Nice jacket, but the color of the cactus is really a lot darker than in the picture. I was expecting this jacket to be just as warm as the Mountain Hardwear monkey jacket but it definitely is not. Although, when it comes to water resistance, abrasion resistance, and wind resistance, it smokes any other fleece jacket. This jacket is not considered wind "proof" but it apparently blocks about 98% of the wind. I would consider it wind proof though. All in all its a great buy and I definitely recommend it if you have the money or find it on sale.
