The Cerium Hoody is a fantastic garment. Though lightweight, it's impressively warm! Under modest effort in a 25 - 30 degree range, perspiration condenses in the jacket's back panel. Even so, this jacket is a beast! One area where improvement could make it even better, the hood seems anemic in dimension and feature. There is no bill as in many of my other Arc'teryx garments but rather an elastic band that isn't very comfortable. It isn't a deal-breaker for me but I"m surprised at the hood's size and feature constraint. I love this jacket nonetheless!

Light And Warm
I love this jacket. Would recommend. I choose this one on <~35F days. Today is low of 9 and high of 21 and I don’t feel cold waiting for the train (I’m also wearing an undershirt and long sleeve dress shirt). Feels nice too.

Made For Show, Not The Outside.
Serious drop in quality. Have extensive wardrobe of Arcteryx gear, typically well made, durable and lasts years under harsh conditions. This coat apparently is made for show, not wear. Outer material is paper thin and has ability to withstand contact with anything but air. Apparently I brushed up against something without noticing- at least until I looked down later in the day and found a long tear in the front of the jacket. No more Arcteryx for me, plenty of alternatives who are interested in supplying high quality products at this price point.

Almost.....perfect
Quite possibly the best jacket I've ever owned. Incredibly warm and the quality of craftsmanship is second to none. My ONLY gripe with this thing is the weirdly the sleeve opening for your arm. Its narrow. The way the jacket sits on my back, my chest, my waist, is perfect. But it's just to tight around the armpit area. Such a weird sizing thing. I do exercise and im in okay shape. I dont think I have huge arms by any means. If the jacket wasnt so warm it would be a bigger problem. I can get away with just a t shirt underneath well into the teens for temp. Layering with this would be impossible just because of the arm opening. Other than that, GREAT jacket. Fix that and I will buy in more colors. Great work!
