StormHood vs DropHood

Last updated: October 4, 2022 by Canberk Koksal

The difference between StormHood and DropHood is that with the DropHood the hood is separated from the collar, whereas with the StormHood the hood and collar are sewn and move together.

90+% of Arc'teryx jackets are equipped with StormHood.

Summary

The consensus with StormHood vs DropHood is that the DropHood is more comfortable than the StormHood when the hood is down and vice versa.

One is not better or worse than the other.

They simply have different best uses and different people like different hoods, which is why they manufacture both.

The best way to settle this is obviously to go ahead and try each of them on. But if you can't do it for some reason, then follow this advice.

Pros of StormHood:

Higher comfort when using the hood
Better coverage of your head
Simple design and lighter weight due to leaner nature

Pros of DropHood:

Higher comfort when not using the hood
More protection with the hood down
Makes up a better mechanical ventilation during high output activities

Most people get their hardshells with a StormHood because most people use their hardshells when it's really inclement.

Are StormHoods uncomfortable when skiing?

I felt like answering this because I started to see it more often. I don't agree with StormHood coming uncomfortable when skiing or snowboarding, and I honestly never saw anyone having any problems with it.

From what I can see, the usual complaint around this is StormHood getting in the way of your eyesight. But since you'll have goggles most of the time, this doesn't become an issue.

The only scenario where I can imagine this being a problem is when the person wearing the StormHood doesn't do any adjustment at all by tightening any of the cords.

What about helmet compatibility?

Both are helmet compatible and both are very comfortable with the helmet. When wearing a helmet, the DropHood again gives a bit more coverage around your neck when the hood is down.

So I recommend disregarding helmet compatibility in this regard.

Reviewing Arc’teryx Fall & Winter 22/23 Gear

Last updated: October 4, 2022 by Canberk Koksal

What's going on with arcteryx.com? Why does it look unorganized?

Well, because for the first time in years, Arc'teryx decided not to release the update in full, all at once. Rather, they're practicing a 6 step launch now. Full catalogue update is not expected to roll out completely before early-mid Jan.

The plan is to spread out the update over 6 months, releasing the revisions and new products of the catalogue at the beginning of each month.

We still do have some information as to what to expect from the F22 update, though. Which is what you'll find out in this post.

Table of Contents

1- Evolution of women's counterparts

Naming scheme

Updated fit

2- Focus on hiking and skiing

Strong marketing on Micon Litric

3- More products on ReGear

1- Evolution of women's counterparts

This is the most striking news of all.

Naming scheme and fit of women's counterparts are changing dramatically. I'm excited and anxious about this at the same time. Let's see how this plays out.

Naming scheme

Suffixes (e.g LT, AR, SV) in insulated jacket names are wiped off for women, with the exception of Cerium SV (expected release is early 2023).

Following is the full naming changes on the making. Only applies to women's counterparts, including vests.

Atom LT (read my review) → Atom
Atom AR (read my review) → Atom Heavyweight
Cerium LT (read my review) → Cerium
Kyanite AR (read my review) → Kyanite
Proton LT (read my review) → Proton
Rho AR (read my review) → Rho Heavyweight
Rho LTW (read my review) → Rho Merino Wool
Thorium AR (read my review) → Thorium
Sentinel LT (read my review) → Sentinel
Sentinel AR (read my review) → Sentinel
Sentinel IS (read my review) → Sentinel Insulated

With Arc'teryx putting more and more focus on fashion day after day, this might not be all that surprising when you think about it.

From what I can see, this isn't going to remain limited to women's either. Men's counterpart has slowly been undergoing the same evolution, and we can also expect seeing similar changes with men's department soon. Maybe as soon as F23 update.

My guess is that this new stance will do some harm on the performance and technicality side of things. Let's hope that I'm wrong, though.

Still, even if that turns out to be the case; Arc'teryx is still very, very likely to keep up with its "best winter outerwear brand" reputation in the market by a large, clear margin.

Updated fit

Seems like the delta between the cuts of men's and women's counterparts is growing. I no longer recommend wearing cross gender products, not even just to a minority.

This isn't a negative, though. I never truly recommended wearing cross gender Arc'teryx anyway. So from my point of view, this is a step forward for women.

2- Focus on hiking and skiing

Activity sharp point through fall is fast and light hiking. Through winter, it's ski & snowboard.

Expect to see new products and revisions for both activities.

Strong marketing on Micon Litric

We're going to hear about this a lot this winter. Seems like Arc'teryx decided to fill the gap in "high-end avalanche packs" space.

Arc'teryx partnered up with Ortovox (ortovox.com), a high-end brand centered around wool expertise and safety pioneering. Together, they designed what they call the highest quality avalanche pack in the market, that is, Micon Litric.

Sales handled on litricavalanchesafety.com. Yes, the backpack is sold on a whole another website.

3- More products on ReGear

As you can see on my 5 things all Arc'teryx newbies should know post, a revision doesn't always equal to a better product.

As you can also see anywhere on the web, but mostly on arcteryx.com, the price tags of Arc'teryx are often staggering.

This is where ReGear comes into play.

It offers older models, at much lower price ranges. They are used, though; hence the name ReGear.

ReGear is not something new. It's been around for years now. But the amount of models were usually limited there. I hope the effort delivers and we see start seeing more products by the end of this year.

I'm excited for this because there are many cases I can think of where I'd recommend a cheaper ReGear product over a brand new Arc'teryx piece.

5 things all Arc’teryx newbies should know

Last updated: August 10, 2022 by Canberk Koksal

There are some things should be considered before getting an Arc'teryx. While these things are widely known by the Dead Bird enthusiasts, most of it is verbal.

To my knowledge, there's no one well organized write up out there that takes this verbal information and puts it on paper. Which is my purpose with this post.

By the way, as you read further...

Keep in mind that all you're getting is a new jacket. Don't be like me and treat this process as if you're getting married. It really doesn't have to be that complicated.

Let's go.

Table of Contents

1- If it's your first ever Arc, then you're probably better off getting one of the flagship products

2- Arc'teryx releases new season gear on February and August every year

3- Colors you see on arcteryx.com are displayed brighter than they actually are

4- Most Arc'teryx products aren't discontinued permanently, but only temporarily

5- A revision doesn't always equal to a better product

1- If it's your first ever Arc, then you're probably better off getting one of the flagship products

Arc'teryx is centered less around fashion and more around technicality and performance. This leads to a very wide variety of products in their catalogue with some of them offering quite niche uses.

Take ski & snowboard jackets, for example. Arc'teryx classifies them under 3 different departments: Freeride, touring and resort. Most other companies don't go the extra mile for stuff like this.

Or take climbing, as an another example. Even if you niche down to something like "mountain climbing during chilly summer mornings" then you'd STILL have 3+ options, such as Atom SL, Proton FL, Nuclei FL, etc...

These options would correspond to different needs, differing from one another in aspects like wind resistance, breathability, packability, durability and fit.

You get the picture. In short, the abundance of the number of choices end up paralyzing you.

So what can you do? How do you decide without having to research for hours?

Well, you can read my Best Arc'teryx Jackets article. You can also give JacketFinder tool (arcteryx.com/jacket-finder/) a try.

But as you do so, keep in mind that below products are Arc'teryx's flagship pieces. You're probably better off with them considering this is your first ever Arc.

Hardshell
- Alpha SV
- Beta AR
Softshell
- Squamish
- Gamma SL
Synthetic insulated
- Proton LT
- Atom LT
- Atom AR
Down insulated
- Thorium AR
- Cerium LT
Fleeces
- Delta LT
- Kyanite AR
Base layers
- Motus AR
Vests
- Atom LT Vest
Pants
- Gamma MX Pants
- Levon Pants

Now that your choices are narrowed down, it's easier to make up your mind.

2- New season gear is released every year on February and August

But they never release the new/revised products entirely at once. It's mostly a slow process that almost always takes (at least) a few weeks to roll out completely.

My recommendation would be to wait until these months are over and then get the new products to be safe. Since the ends of these months are cross seasons, chances are, you don't need your jacket immediately and you have a few weeks to wait it out.

3- Colors you see on arcteryx.com are displayed brighter than they actually are

In reality, they're more muted.

In terms of fashion and looks standpoint, this is actually a pro if you aren't Kanye West. Still, most Arc'teryx users tend to use them in at least somewhat extreme sports like backcountry skiing, mountain climbing and trekking.

This brings us to the question of security. Some users rightfully argue this as being unsafe, as the rescue squads would have a harder time recognizing your not-so-bright-and-colorful jacket.

While this argument definitely has its place and should absolutely be considered, do keep in mind that most Arc'teryx ski jackets are equipped with Recco reflectors - a transmitter that allows the rescue crews to locate your whereabouts in such case.

Just make sure to consider what you're planning to do with your jacket, do read its specs and then act accordingly.

So yeah, a muted color might not necessarily be a deal breaker.

4- Most Arc'teryx products aren't discontinued permanently, but only temporarily

Arc'teryx is almost never satisfied with how far they come with their technology and catalogue. They're always on the lookout for further improvements (which is one of the primary reasons why they're at the top of performance focused tech wear).

This causes them to discontinue/reintroduce/revise their products extremely often. Sometimes these temporary discontinuations only take 6 months like it did for Beta LT and Dually Belay in the past. Other times it takes years like it did for Nuclei FL.

It's not impossible to find previous models, either. I'd recommend you to check out following pages:

This, however, also has its downsides.

Which brings me to my last point.

5- A revision doesn't always equal to a better product

The products Arc'teryx manufacture are real deal. They're nothing but R&D products. We all know how Windows XP and Windows 7 outperformed their successors.

Same goes for Arc'teryx.

I've seen too much Arc'teryx products that went south with the revisions. Maybe close to a quarter of all revisions? And I'm NOT exaggerating that.

One of the most infamous examples of this is Beta LT. Together with Proton LT and Nuclei FL, it was my long time favorite. Fast forward to Fall 2020 revision and they literally almost butchered it.

There had been some improvements along the way up to now, but the absolute unit of that pre-2020 version is still being missed.

Let me tell you that it isn't often for Arc'teryx to mess up the revisions this much. Even when the revisions fail to live up to our expectations or we end up liking the previous versions for the better, the new versions are mostly still A class.

The Ultimate Arc’teryx Size Guide: Jackets, Pants, and Shoes

Last updated: August 3, 2022 by Canberk Koksal

In summary, you can find your most accurate fit by comparing your body measurements to the Arc'teryx size guide. But, as you know, Arc'teryx features different product models having various fits. That's why products' sizing and some tiny details might vary slightly. I'd say you should know them exactly before buying an Arc'teryx product. So, in this post, I've put Arc'teryx size charts and other parameters that you should pay attention to together.

Keep reading to learn how to opt for the right size Arc'teryx jacket, pants, and shoes.

Table of Contents

Arc’teryx Jackets

To find out your Arc'teryx jacket size, you'll need to take measurements of your sleeve, waist, chest, and hip. But how?

Sleeve: With your arm slightly bent and relaxed, run the tape measure from your center back neck to the wrist.
Chest / Bust: Measure under your arms, wrapping the measuring tape around the fullest part of your chest or bust. Don’t wrap too tight.
Waist: Take a measurement around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hip: Measure around your hips at the widest point while standing with your feet hip-width apart.

If you know these four measurements, excellent, you can compare them to the Arc'teryx jacket sizing chart. And then, just choose a jacket that fits you perfectly.

But if your measurements are between sizes on the chart, then round up for a looser fit or vice-versa.

Men's sizes for Arc'teryx jackets range from XXS to 3XL, while women's sizes are XXS to XXL.

If you want to buy a product from Veilance (Men's - Women's) or System A (Men's - Women's) lines, you should check out their own sizing charts.

See other Arc'teryx size charts: https://arcteryx.com/us/en/help/sizing

If you have more questions about fit or sizing, you can consult them to a Arc'teryx Virtual Advisor.

Bear in mind that Arc’teryx jackets have different jacket fits, hems, and lengths for different models. So, you should also pay attention to them while buying a jacket.

Arc’teryx Pants

Before buying Arc'teryx pants, you should know various of your body measurements. They're your waist and hip circumferences and the length from your groin to the floor (a.k.a. inseam length).

Waist: Take a measurement around your waist at the narrowest part.
Hip: Measure around your hips at the widest point while standing with your feet hip-width apart.
Inseam: Measure from your groin down the inside leg to the floor while standing. To get an accurate measurement, I'd recommend asking someone to do it for you.

Now compare your measurements to the Arc’teryx pant size chart below.

As with Arc’teryx jackets, if your measurements are between sizes, select the larger size for a looser fit or vice-versa.

If you want to buy a product from Veilance (Men's - Women's) or System A (Men's - Women's) lines, you should check out their own sizing charts.

See other Arc'teryx size charts: https://arcteryx.com/us/en/help/sizing

If you have more questions about fit or sizing, you can consult them to a Arc'teryx Virtual Advisor.

Arc’teryx uses two different size ranges for the pants models: Numerical and Alpha. And some pants feature regular, short (S), and tall (T) inseam length options.

So, when you check jackets’ size options, you can see letter-letter or number-letter combinations on their product pages. The first shows the size, and the latter is the inseam length symbol.

For example, M S = Medium Size, Short Inseam Length or 36 T = Size 36, Tall Inseam Length.

But, if you see only the size symbol, it means that the pants have a regular inseam length.

That said, the inseam length of various models might vary. So, I suggest you find out this measurement for the product you'll buy. And of course, you should know its pant fit.

See the comparison table below to stay on top of Arc'teryx pants’ inseam length, fit, and more.

Arc’teryx Footwear

Buying the appropriate size for your feet while shopping online might be challenging. So how will you ensure you buy an Arc'teryx pair that's the right fit?

Easy peasy... Just measure your foot length using a ruler or tape measurer from the heel to the tip of your longest toe. Like in the image on the left. Then find your foot size on the Arc'teryx footwear sizing chart below.

If you can't see the length value you measured on the conversion chart, look at the nearest large value to it.

Speaking of which, Arc'teryx footwear products have a standard width. It's categorized as "D" for men and "B" for women in the North American system.

CLO Values Explained: Primaloft, Coreloft, Thermatek & More

Last updated: August 9, 2022 by Canberk Koksal

In summary, the CLO value of synthetic insulation shows you how warm your jacket is. Sure, it’s not the only parameter affecting your warmth. But, almost the most important one and, unfortunately, the hardest to achieve... Because producers rarely share CLO values for their items. And trying to find them on the Internet is really time-consuming. So I decided to create a detailed table with publicly available CLO values of synthetic insulations. Also, I calculated these values for insulated jackets made of them.

If you need more info about synthetic insulations’ CLO values and other characteristics, keep reading it.

Data Set: CLO Values of Synthetic Insulated Jackets

Important note: CLO values of synthetic insulators are based on several forums and manufacturers' technical data sheets. And they aren't the results of scientific studies.

Remember that jacket's other features like shell fabric, bagginess, and length might also affect your warmth. Plus, your thermal comfort can vary on your metabolic rate, activity level, and weather conditions.

For more information, see my other article.

Conclusion

Synthetic Insulations

Synthetic insulators are typically designed to mimic down's properties.

Ultra-fine fibers in their structure create heat-trapping air pockets, keeping your body heat... though not as good as natural fillings [1].

But, when it comes to water resistance, they don't collapse and lose their insulating power when wet, unlike down jackets. Also, their drying time is shorter.

So, I'd say synthetic insulated jackets might be good choices for damp conditions or high-output activities. And, you can clean them easier than those with down.

Plus, they're more affordable and hypoallergenic. But still, keep in mind that synthetic jackets are less packable and heavier than down ones.

How Warm Are Synthetic Insulated Jackets?

Truth be told, it's pretty tough to tell how warm a synthetic insulated jacket is.

For a start, I'd say you'll need more synthetic insulation than natural down to achieve the same warmth. It means your ultra-warm synthetic jacket will likely be heavier than its down counterpart.

Of course, you'll want to wear lightweight synthetic jackets during high-intensity activities. To offset the weight, some brands use lighter insulations in their jackets, like 40 g/m². Or only in the jacket's sleeves, hood, and neck.

These active insulation jackets sacrifice a little warmth but still can work great trapping air. Also, they're remarkably breathable. My best picks in this category are Arc'teryx Proton LT and Patagonia Nano-Air.

What is a CLO?

CLO value is an important factor in determining a synthetic jacket’s warmth. Metaphorically, like FP * FW value in down jackets…And the higher the value is, the warmer the insulation is.

Synthetic insulators provide more insulation per thickness. This is why any insulation can achieve desired CLO value after setting the right amount of thickness. But of course, your jacket will become heavier in the end.

Manufacturers rarely share the CLO values of their products. Let's say they disclosed these values; which standard did they use to measure them? To correctly be able to compare them, this info is also crucial.

Against all odds, I combed through the CLO values of synthetic insulators. And, to give you some ideas about jackets' warmth, I've prepared a detailed table.

But, I'd like to point out that I got the values from forums like Reddit and producers' technical data sheets and catalogs. That is, they aren't based on scientific investigations and aren't totally reliable.

In the table, you'll see some calculations related to synthetic insulated jackets. For example, the Patagonia Nano Puff Hoody contains the Primaloft Gold Eco having 0.92 clo/oz/yd². And the jacket's insulation amount is 1.77 oz/yd². So,

Calculated CLO of Patagonia Nano Puff Hoody = 0.92 x 1.77 = 1.63

As I said earlier, some jackets have different insulation weights on various parts. So, I calculated the CLO values considering the percentage of their body surface area covered [2].

Synthetic Insulation Types

There are three major categories of nonwoven insulations: Short-staple, continuous filament, and cluster fiber. Also, it's possible to knit synthetic insulations.

Nonwoven Insulations

Short-staple insulation

These insulators feature densely packed short fibers to trap air and keep your body heat. But, the fibers can move around and form cold spots.

Short-staple fillings provide a soft feeling. They're compressible and have good warmth-to-weight performance. But, they can lose their insulating ability faster than other synthetic ones. Meaning that you might need a new jacket after a while.

PrimaLoft, Coreloft Compact, and Thinsulate are examples of short-staple insulation.

Continuous filament insulation

These insulations are made from continuous filament fibers.

They’re stiffer and less packable than short-staple insulators. But, their web structure is more durable and retains loft longer.

Climashield, Coreloft Continuous, and PlumaFill are at the forefront of the market.

Cluster fiber insulation

There are small fiber tufts in this insulation type. They're designed for closely mimicking down to minimize heat loss.

The North Face ThermoBall Eco and Freudenberg comfortemp are examples.

The North Face ThermoBall [3]

Comfortemp® fiberball padding

Knitted Insulations

These insulations don't need to be quilted because they're self-supporting knitted structures. So, the jacket's outer layer doesn't have to be high-density to keep the insulation.

After all, the jackets with knitted insulators are highly breathable. That’s why they're convenient for high-output activities.

But, to put it bluntly, they won't offer excellent insulation performance.

Polartec, Octa Loft, and Pontetorto are well-known knit insulations.

These are only approximate values assuming:

you only have a shirt under and no shell over,
during daily use (strolls, power walks etc. at most - no high output activities),
with enough wind to cause an umbrella to twist in your hand,
and when it's dry out.

If you think you run warmer or colder than the average person, then shift temperature ranges accordingly.

What Kind of Synthetic Insulation is Best for You?

As I mentioned above, various synthetic insulation producers are on the market. And each brand features a lot of varieties in their product range.

Let’s look at the most widely used synthetic insulations in a little more detail.

After that, it is up to you to choose!

PrimaLoft

PrimaLoft is a well-known brand in short-staple insulation. It has three main categories: Gold, Silver, and Black.

And they've tons of subcategories...

PrimaLoft Gold insulators have the highest CLO values among others. And that way, they might maintain your warmth even in harsh weather.

Generally speaking, PrimaLoft Silver ones display slightly worse insulation performance. So I'd say they'll be appropriate for wearing in a little warmer climates.

And the PrimaLoft Black is the most basic insulation. You can opt for a jacket with this insulation for everyday use.

PrimaLoft also designs insulators in collaboration with some outdoor clothing brands. LifaLoft (Helly Hansen) and ThermoBall Eco (The North Face) are some of them.

By the way, I'd like to say I have been impressed with PrimaLoft's cross-core technology. The aerogel used could enhance your warmth without increasing your jacket's weight. Patagonia DAS Parka and L.L. Bean Primaloft Packaway are examples.

Climashield

Climashield produces continuous fiber insulations made of long and hollow fibers.

Filaments in their structure allow recovery after applying forces during stretching or washing. So, they might help maintain the insulation performance of your jacket for a long time.

The company has a wide variety of insulations like Climashield Apex, Contur, Prism…

Each insulation has a prominent characteristic. For example, Climashield Apex is touted as lightweight warmth. And Climashield Prism is a high-performance insulation material produced using AquaBan technology. So, it can repel water effectively.

Speaking of which, Arc'teryx ThermaTek is thought to be a rebrand of Climashield Prism.

Coreloft

Coreloft is synthetic insulation used exclusively by Arc'teryx. There are two kinds of this insulation: Coreloft Compact and Coreloft Continuous.

The Coreloft Compact is thought to be a rebrand of Thermore Classic. And the Coreloft Continuous is of Climashield APEX.

The Coreloft Compact is made of staple fibers in various sizes that are crimped to trap air for more warmth. It's compressible and soft but might lose loft faster because of short fibers.

As you might guess from its name, the Coreloft Continuous includes filament fibers in the structure. That’s why it features higher integrity and more durability. But you can compress it less. Also, I'd say this insulation has some limits on its weight.

You can compare Arc’teryx synthetic insulated jackets using its comparison page.

FullRange & PlumaFill

Exclusive to Patagonia, FullRange is a product of Toray Mills, Japan. This is why it’s believed to be a rebrand of Toray 3DeFX+.

FullRange, which is quite stretchy and breathable, includes multi-denier polyester fibers. For now, Patagonia uses this insulator only in Nano-Air products.

PlumaFill is another innovative synthetic insulation of Patagonia. Microfilaments in this insulator spiral a central fiber to mimic down very well. It’s pretty warm and compressible. You might want to check out this page for more info.

Conclusion

Your synthetic insulated jacket's warmth is mainly related to its insulation's CLO value. And the higher the value is, the warmer you feel.

But, companies infrequently share their products' CLO values. And finding them is a bit challenging and time-consuming.

So, I prepared a table with publicly available CLO values of synthetic insulators. And I added the calculated CLOs for synthetic jackets to the table. Also, you can find some details in the post about the common synthetic insulations in the market, like Primaloft, Climashield, etc.

I hope this information will help you when choosing a synthetic insulated jacket.

I recommend you also check out my other post, "Best Synthetic Insulated Jackets".
