Why Choose the Arenite Jacket?
The Arc'teryx Arenite Jacket 16234 is a very warm fleece with a very slim athletic fit. It is made from Cobblecomb fleece, which has a very tough twill face and shows no signs of pilling after nearly a decade of use. This piece is a serious furnace that traps a lot of heat while still keeping me cool under exertion. Articulated patterning, gusseted underarms, and stretchy fabric deliver unrestricted mobility. The athletic fit hugs my body; it is one of the Arc'teryx pieces that fits me perfectly. It's great for layering or wearing on its own. It has a tall collar for wind protection, a zipper hood for comfort, and the laminated zip pockets open to two very generous chest cavities for storage.
