Why Choose the Atom LT Jacket?
The Arc'teryx Atom LT Hoody is an iconic jacket and hands down, one of my most essential pieces of gear. It is a lightweight, synthetic insulated jacket that is perfect for hiking, snowboarding, and everyday wear. I picked this one up from ReGear with a professionally repaired sleeve, and it's one of my most heavily used items. Its compressible Coreloft 60 insulation traps insulated air and provides me with a ton of warmth without bulk, while the Tyono 20 shell offers wind and light rain protection. Breathable and stretchy fleece side panels allow for unrestricted movement and release heat during all outdoor activities.

How I Use the Arc'teryx Atom LT Jacket
- Hiking: This Arc'teryx jacket's lightweight insulation and breathability are great on cool, windy trails, keeping me warm without bulk. It’s comfortable down to 25°F with proper layering, but a warmer jacket, such as the Atom AR, will be required for colder temperatures.
- Snowboarding: I take this on all snowboarding trips, but it does not make it up to the mountain the majority of the time. If I blow through my fleeces, I can use the LT as a midlayer under a shell. It has taped seams and provides adequate insulation for cold slopes while maintaining mobility. It's what I take out when I'm not sure what conditions I'm about to face... a great all-arounder.
