The Arc'teryx Kyanite Hoody scored exceptionally high marks in every metric we'd expect in a top-performing midweight fleece. It has a great weight to warmth ratio and most importantly, is incredibly comfortable to wear. The brushed fleece lining feels great against the skin, and while the cut is slim, it accommodates wide-set shoulders without creating any hotspots in the armpits or shoulders. Our testers loved climbing, skiing, and hiking in this piece. The scuba-style hood fits underneath climbing helmets and does a great job at keeping cold air out while trapping hard-won body heat inside. 
This piece really only has a few downsides. For high output activity in the spring and summer, this fleece might not offer the breathability you want when early morning and evening temps are rising. Our only other complaint is the lack of thumb loops built into the cuffs. Using this as a standalone piece is inconsequential, but when you're sliding it underneath other layers, thumb loops keep things from getting all bunched up. This fleece hoody is ideal for cold-weather pursuits where thinner gridded fleece just won't cut it.

 We have a review on their beta ar gore-tex pro show. The new pro show we have a review up on the trino sl and then this guy, the kyonite lt from arctarix, hopefully the sizing representation and the layout. The features is helpful for you deciding if this is the right thing for you. If you have any questions

 I feel, like that's, a very good, buy and a very useful jacket if you're looking for strictly breathability soft comfort, absolutely super quiet and a little bit less. My things is about 160 for this guy right here then yeah. The kyanite lt is where it's at men's and women's available, of course, different colors i'll put that below yeah. It'S a very it's good

Arc'Teryx Kyanite LT Jacket Review - Sean Sewell of Engearment.com

Hey this is ultra multigear, and this is my video review on the arterix kyanite ar a new fleece jacket introduced in 2021. I first showed this piece when i was illustrating how to layer with the arterix beta ar and now that i've had a full season to really try out the kyanite ar and get my thoughts formulated. I wanted to share my impressions on this piece. It is part of arterix's essentials line, which means it's meant to be used in a variety of applications, uh mid layer outer layer

 But let me go into what makes the kyanite ar special by arterix in terms of temperature range you're. Looking at a rock solid, 30 degree jacket during the day, provided you are active and generating enough body, heat 30 degrees, you're gon na be very, very comfortable uh. I felt just fine with this jacket at that temperature range at night. You may want to pair with something a little bit bulkier like a practitioner ar to make sure you get that body, nice and warm, but during the day sun's out, 30 35 degrees are going to be just fine

 It will fit over a helmet, not something you would ever do under normal circumstances, but in an emergency emergency situation you may resort to whatever you need to resort to to feel warm. But you'll you'll be happy to know that if you have to hunker down the hood will fit over even a bulky ski helmet. The zipper is buttery smooth. The the outside material is very comfortable and soft against the skin overall, just a really just comfortable jacket

 If you let it air out. Your body heat is enough to get that moisture off your skin, but just know it does take a little bit longer to dry. In addition to the inherent wicking abilities of fleece, you also get ventilated pockets which helps get that warm air from inside the jacket and help cool you down and get the the moisture off your skin a feature i always appreciate. Ventilated pockets are always a welcome feature in terms of durability

Arc'teryx Kyanite AR Impressions!

 The grid pattern helps to keep even more warmth in. If you get too hot, this fleece also wicks away moisture and has an added bonus of odor control built in. The shoulder seams sit a little lower, which allows you to comfortably carry a backpack without pressing the seams into your skin. Similar to the Kyanite, this material is soft and feels great next to your skin

 On a hike or in a backpack, it will not weigh you down.  What makes this item even more comfortable is the articulated patterning and the gusseted underarms. Both of these additions improve the mobility of the jacket. Reach, jump, stretch, and more without feeling trapped or exposing your torso

 Both of these additions improve the mobility of the jacket. Reach, jump, stretch, and more without feeling trapped or exposing your torso. One other important comfort feature is the zipper chin guard. Because the collar is high, it touches your chin sometimes

Though the brand name and material may both be new to the scene, the two are working in conjunction to set a high bar when it comes to lightweight, technical clothing. The NW Alpine Spectra is just one piece in a line that is the first in the world to incorporate Spectra fiber &mdash; an innovative material that is engineered to be lighter and stronger than Kevlar. This highly technical, highly breathable, ultra-lightweight layer is able to easily withstand normal abrasion, rips, and tears, yet it is as soft next-to-skin as merino wool. No longer do mountain athletes have to sacrifice durability to save weight, nor do they have to substitute comfort for performance.
Though it is a versatile, lightweight option, the Spectra won't provide you with any of the insulation you may need to make it through the coldest days of winter. Despite all of the advances this top is making in the world of base layers, it still falls victim to some common pitfalls of full synthetics &mdash; even casual efforts leave this top smelling as if you just pushed for an FKT. So while you may find yourself washing this top more than usual, you can rest assured knowing that the Spectra Long Sleeve won't wear out quickly. This ultra-durable lightweight base layer is built for the rigors of rock climbing but performs equally well as a trail running top or for working hard in the skin track when backcountry skiing. If you're looking for a lightweight base layer, this is the best we've tested.

Best Base Layer of 2022 - GearLab

ValueI’m prone to spending $20 on a pound of fresh-roasted Kenyan coffee and $15 for a sixer of my favorite local IPA, so take my rating here with several grains of pink Himalayan finishing-salt. The Fast/Light is on the heavy side. Its hood could use improvement. It costs a bit more than many other softies of similar performance

 It does not want to hear about how sometimes you’ll wear it with your nice corduroy pants. It most certainly doesn’t give a single shit about where you like to carry your phone.

Mobility/Comfort While the Fast/Light moniker isn’t the most apt for this jacket, I totally get why the NW Alpine crew decided against more descriptive names: Unencumbered/Cozy or Snug/Fluid just don’t have the same ring, somehow. Names aside, this long-armed and close-cut piece delivered outstanding comfort and flexibility during even my most gymnastic efforts.

Weight Considering its trim fit, single pocket, and simple design ethic, I fully expected the Fast/Light to be, well, lighter.  Once I’d experienced its warmth and general burliness, however, I felt that the extra ounces were well-spent.

 While the DWR-coated ripstop nylon won’t keep you dry long in a deluge, it also won’t keep you soaked in your own sweat since it breathes like a fiend. The cut is baggy and unflattering, but we assume you’re not out there for the looks.Buy now: $120  This content is created and maintained by a third party, and imported onto this page to help users provide their email addresses.

 We put it on at the beginning of a three-day hike in the White Mountains and didn’t take off until we stepped out of the woods. The PowerDry material is just the right weight on its own for comfort in the 40-60 degree temperature range during high-exertion activities. It pulled sweat away effectively and warded off the chill above tree line. The pocket was perfect for an energy gel and the hood was great when the mountain breeze picked up and while sleeping at night

 One of those is NW Alpine, based in that outdoor playground, Portland, Oregon.MORE HANDS-ON REVIEWS: Bontrager Aura 5 TLR | Brazen Coffee Brewer | Billingham Hadley Shoulder BagRather than trying to be all things to all people by selling board shorts and running shoes, NW Alpine focuses only on making minimalist, durable mountaineering and rock climbing clothing. Its lineup is small but covers the basics of base, insulation and shell layers with a theme of brutal minimalism — less pockets, toggles and elastic, all of which means there’s less to break, rip or snag when you’re facing an overhang 1,000 feet off the deck. We’d like to think that this is how the big brands used to be: climbers making gear for climbers with an obsessive eye for function and quality

Tested: NW Alpine

 This type of Polartec fabric was new to me and it is really comfortable worn directly over skin. The thumb loops are welcome when slipping my wind shell on and the hood has a nice snug fit that works great under both my ski and climbing helmets. The zippered chest pocket was a great size for my iPhone (and convenient to keep it close and warm). Summary

 The zippered chest pocket was a great size for my iPhone (and convenient to keep it close and warm). Summary

I went with a size large which was an athletic but not too snug fit for my 5’9″ 180 lb 42 inch chest. It was a more casual but functional fit for Erik who is 5’8″, 160 lb. To select the right fit just use the size chart above and the best measurement to refer to would be chest size.

Gear Review- NW Alpine Black Spider Hoody

NW Alpine products measure up price-wise with other high end clothing companies: A Polartec Black Spider Hoodie is $110; climbing-inspired Mens and Womens Fast/Light softshell jackets cost $220; and the 4.9 ounce Eyebright Jacket (the company calls it “the lightest fully featured waterproof/breathable jacket on the market”) made with Dyneema and eVent membrane is $600.

The gear has been through tough conditions such as the ascents of the Northwest Face of Mount Dickey and the 6,400-meter Hispar Sar in Pakistan.
