It is truly a shame that the inside key pocket was removed from a current Kyanite hoodie while the price went up. I used that pocket on my old kyanite hoodie every time I wore it, for keys and wallet. The fleece is nice and I love the color (I got neon orange this time) but I can't help feeling disappointed as I thought I was buying the same product in a new color. It is not.

I usually wear XS in sportswear jackets and XXS fits me best in this style. Unfortunately, while the shoulders and waist fit well, the arms are way too short for both warmth and style. If Arcteryx made this jacket with longer arms it would be perfect.

I bought a Kyanite jacket in boxcar (green) in January. It's my favorite color and I loved the jacket so much, I bought another one right away. I recently took the Kyanite on a two-week fishing trip in Patagonia-- I wore it most days on the river and then often wore it to dinner at the lodge. Amazingly, the jacket still looks nearly new. Note that I typically wear a medium in sportswear (athletic build, 5'4", 125-130) but a small fits me perfectly in this jacket. The lower arms are usually snug on Arcteryx jackets, but this is a little looser and fits just right.

I do really like this. I went with the other reviews and sized down and it fits well. The arms a bit short but otherwise despite its light weight it is warm. I was unsure it would be warm bc of how thin it is but it’s lovely soft quality and warm. I wear it at work to the hospital.

I absolutely love the fit and style of this jacket, but I'm very disappointed with the fabric/quality as it pilled after only a few wears. I've had it for 3 months, with minimal use, yet it looks old due to the pilling. Perhaps I got a defected one or quality has just gone down. My husband has an older version of this style in men's and his hasn't pilled at all.

I Love My Kyanite! This is my second one. It's my go to when I just want a little bit of warmth. I do notice a little bit of a difference between the previous version and this new version. I love it as a layering piece under my Atom. The Kyanite is a versatile jacket!

I bought a black Kyanite LT hoody (the old version) in November 2022, and love the cut, which makes me look 5 lbs skinnier. So I purchased this one with no hoody. But this revised version is a disappointment. Same size M no longer fits. It looks like size L on me. Waist and shoulder areas are more loose than the old version and the sleeves are too long. I am 5’5” and 138 lbs.

I recently bought this jacket, and I have worn it many times. It is warm, but a comfortable warm where I don’t overheat. Also, I wore this during light California drizzles for 30-45 min walks, and my jacket did not feel damp or affected really. I did size up for a looser fit, but I feel it would still be comfy if I had gotten my recommended size (true to fit).

Super cozy fleece that fits perfectly. I'm 5'4" 125 lb and ordered the XS which is fitted and not baggy. Love Snyth color. It is bright fuchsia and looks good on almost everyone. Will be wearing this every where.

[Employee of arcteryx] Got a size down from my shell size and it fits great. Very comfy, cosy and warm. Super soft inside. Great midlayer under a shell or standalone for everyday use. A tiny bit long at the back on me but otherwise a perfect fit!

I got this as a mid-layer for colder scrambling, hiking and climbing. And literally the first time I put it on in store I yelled "wow it's SO warm!", I was so impressed! The inner is so soft and warm, the outer is quite durable - I have put this jacket through so many washes already and it's holding up super well! I'm slightly obsessed with the phantasm colour too. Now in the snow season I've been wearing it as a mid-layer while skiing. This might be one of the Arc items I wear the most!

Stylish and warm. Love the longer fit. Why or why is it sold out! Please make more STAT

I have the Kyanite LT hoody and wear it all the time. I wanted the same fit and performance but a little bit more fleece. This is it! The jacket move with you. It fits slim, but is not restrictive. For reference, I am 5’2”, 112 lbs. and the xs fits great in both the Kyanite Lt hoody and this jacket, the Kyanite AR Jacket. I normally go for black, but decided to try the crystal fern. It’s a real nice color!
