User Review: Arc'teryx Gamma MX Hoody

Arc'teryx Gamma MX Hoody
Above: The current Gamma MX Hoody, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Reviewed January 17, 2008 by spicytuna

Rating: rated 5 of 5 stars

I've had my MX Hoody for a few months and I have to admit that it's quickly becoming my favorite piece of outerwear.

It's just that the MX Hoody is so versatile. It's very light and supple and yet its fleece lining keeps you very warm. It's highly water resistant and practically wind proof so it can be used in all conditions - from a hike in the fall to cross country skiing in the winter.

The fit is very close which gives you great mobility but keep in mind that it may be difficult to layer underneath this jacket.

The only minor complaint I have is with the hood. It's so huge! Of course it was designed to fit over a helmet but it's just too big for regular use. The hood will flap around in the wind with its huge volume.
