Why Choose the Kyanite AR Half Zip?
The Arc'teryx Kyanite AR Half Zip is an absolute furnace! To the point that I might start using it as a legitimate midlayer. This piece keeps me extremely warm on cold hikes and is slim fit, so it easily layers under a jacket if things get nasty. The material is very stretchy and extremely comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. I think the Kyanite-like pieces from Arc'teryx have some of the most comfortable pieces. I wish they made a blanket out of the material.
