Arc'teryx, as always, are taking their time for the new update. My expectation is that it won't end until late fall.
I say this from the conversations I'm currently having with the reps and Arc'teryx's updates in recent years.
Another noteworthy result of this slow rollout is the discontinued items. Some flagship items (like Atom AR and Nuclei SV) are currently not listed on arcteryx.com. But I'm positive they should show up in a few weeks. They do this often.
For very warm synthetic items I'd hold on until early fall and only buy then.
I check arcteryx.com daily. I'll keep revisiting and editing this article accordingly. But always keep an eye on my data tables, since they are the ones that are updated the quickest.
Full list of updates
The highlights of Arc'teryx's FW24 catalogue update is in the naming scheme changes in some of the flagship lines in men's counterparts: Atom, Proton, Cerium and Nuclei.
This wasn't unexpected at all.
In FW23, it was the women's counterparts that has seen the same evolution. Arc'teryx had long been hinting the same changes for men's as well.

If you're confused now and don't know which jacket best corresponds to your own needs, then follow the advice given in https://arcteryx.com/us/en/shop/jacket-finder/.
The temperature ratings in this list are intended to represent the lowest temperatures you can wear each jacket without feeling uncomfortably cold.
Keep in mind that these are only approximate values, assuming:
- worn over a shirt only and no shell over,
- during daily use (strolls, power walks etc at most - no high output activities),
- with light wind,
- and when it's dry out.
These values applicable to your torso only. Your hands, legs and feet are still subject to their own additional insulation.
The best practice is usually to use this table for comparing each jacket to one another, rather than pinpointing their ratings.
Also, ratings will best respond to males. As most women tend to run colder than men, for women, shifting these ratings a bit is recommended.
Always opt for the warmer option when in doubt. For jackets with Atom AR level warmth and beyond, recommended is almost always the hooded models.
