User Review: Arc'teryx Men's Gamma MX Hoody

I own this jacket for 2 years now. It's very light and easy to roll and put away in a bag. The pockets are well placed and can fit a lot of stuff. I never tried it by itself as I always have a hardshell over it whenever it rains, or just looks like it could. It keeps you warm when it's not too cold but is not a good jacket to stay around without moving in the cold. I put many layers so I can survive my snowshoeing trips.

My jacket is blue and wherever my Gore-Tex coat rubs against, the color went to almost white, which is a bummer because this jacket is very classy and now I can't really use it for anything else than outdoor stuff. It's a really reliable jacket but not warm enough for me, my other jackets are way warmer for a lot cheaper.

Bottom line is, this jacket is very versatile, well made, slick, light and perfect for the layer before the hard shell. I would recommend it for 3 and a half seasons.
