Offering four times the wind resistance of traditional fleece, the Arc'teryx Men's Sniper Zip is not only a great choice as a second layer on cold days, it also serves as a superb outer layer in milder weather. The warm and breathable Polartec Wind Pro Herringbone pile fabric has a tight knit face that repels rain and the beautiful look and feel makes it a tempting choice for casual urban wear.
Great layer
Great fit, great quality, great weight to warmth ratio. Wears well over a T on chilly days and really insulates a mid layer. Seems pretty windproof, not sure about 20mph+ gusts. If you get too hot, the long front zip opens up just enough to vent, yet not lose too much heat. Has a hard outer finish and a soft inside - really "sticks" to cotton. Worth the price.
Exceptional shirt
Had the covert shirt for a year and wore it everywhere. Bought the sniper shirt for the zipper and wind stopper. It was worth the cost and have worn it close to three months with winter hiking and down hill skiing. Great shirt.
Very good product
I got the garment that I expected and am very pleased.
