Sizes Are Too Big And Long

Please go back to the smaller and shorter sizes for those of us who are petite. Even the XXS is too big and too long in this version as well as many of your other jackets, like the Atom and Beta. I really miss the older sizes and cuts that you used to make. Disappointing.

Wishing It Was Not Revised

I agree with the other reviewers who say the fit and comfortability compared to the previous version of the covert cardigan has declined. I loved my old version and unfortunately lost it. I bought this as a replacement, it feels much more rigid and heavy than my older version.

Awesome New Style

Awesome shape, fit and styling. Love the new colors. Arcteryx typically ran tighter on me but I can size down in this jacket. Beautiful - just the layer that I need for an upcoming vacation in the Alps.

Stylish And Warmth

This is one of a many I have owned over the years bc of the fit, warmth and weight. Had to return the size medium ( which has been my usual size in this style)/and exchange for a small due to sizing. I find that the small measured against a series of years (2025-2022) medium is identical maybe an inch difference to the now revised 2026 model. The size small is still loose and provides ample movement in motion and fits comfortably under a down filled vest. FYI my height is 5’3” and weight of 123 ibs with an athletic frame. Purchased the mongoose Heather in Canada and love the military/ olive green heather shade.

Great Durability

I bought the covert cardigan in 2019 and it is still going strong. Very little pilling, no snags and it is still warm and comfortable. It looks very smart and can be worn as a jacket and as a layer under a coat. By comparison I bought a very similar top - a Better Sweater - last fall which has pilled very very badly in only a few months and looks shabby. If you are on the fence between these two tops, I definitely recommend the Covert over the Better Sweater

Stunning Color

The Mallow color is show-stopping. Very comfortable cardigan. Perfect for spring and fall. I don't think I would wear it in the winter.

Beautiful Mid Layer

The color is very beautiful, 174cm 75kg L size is nice. I like to wear it as a jacket with my t-shirt in the spring time. But when there is wind it let the wind in so kinda cold, but yeah it’s a mid layer so it’s normal

Beautiful Midnight Frost

First of all, I love the Midnight Frost color. It is my favorite Arc’teryx color for some time. The sweater itself is just a little stiff, but still comfortable. The inside fleece is soft. I find the fit pretty flattering. I like it and I find the style casual but nicer, although I prefer jackets more.

Very Good

I chose it because the material is very soft, comfortable to wear, flattering, and very warm, which is perfect for the climate in my region.

Great, But...

My only complaint is the lack of locker room hook to hang this cardigan. Otherwise, top notch is many ways.

Too Tight In Sleeves

Looks professional and sleek. Unfortunately, the sleeves are way too tight and cannot be pushed or rolled up the arm. Seems like a minor issue, but since the jacket is so warm I quickly overheat. I cannot move the sleeves to fix my bike or work on any projects. I will be returning it because of this. While I may be forgiving if this was a natural fiber, but it’s just polyester so where’s the stretch? It’s highly obnoxious. I love my old jacket and I wish the newer line was of the same quality.

Sleek, Unique & A Great Fit

I just got this in the mail. I really love it. I love the minimal look to it. Very sleek. The quality is really nice. And the fit is perfect. I wish they had more colours too. A brown would look amazing as well as a dark grey

Great Fleece

I absolutely love this mid weight fleece. I actually like the boxy fit oppose to more fitted one from couple of years back. I find it really comfortable to wear rather short sleeve or long sleeve underneath and still having some room. I wish there were more colors to choose from, hoping they are coming this fall/winter season!
