Here's what other sites are saying:

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Arcteryx Men's Maverick AR Jacket (Spring 2008) The Men's Maverick AR Jacket by Arcteryx is a warm layer constructed from plush Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead textured fabric. Streamlined design exudes simplicity and a trim fit layers up nicely for outdoor activities. Specifications: Weight: 18.7 oz (530 g) M Features: DWR finish Full front zip with interior wind flap Hem Draw cord No-lift gusseted underarms One laminated sleeve pocket with laminated zip Two hand pockets with laminated zippers and pocket facings Fabrics: Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead We are not able to ship Arcteryx products outside the US because of that other thing."

From Backcountry.com:
"Recycle that boxy old fleece and get into something that actually has a little style the Arc'teryx Men's Maverick AR Jacket. Arc'teryx gave this fleece a trim fit for a streamlined look and to make it easy to layer. Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead fleece refuses to pill, dries quickly, and breathes well, so you stay comfortable and warm on the trail or in the city. Since it's not windproof, wear the Maverick AR as an insulating layer under a shell or an outer layer in cool weather. *Available for US shipment only."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"Ideal insulating outerwear for hiking and climbing on cool, calm days, this Arc'teryx Maverick AR Jacket has a streamlined profile that easily layers beneath your skiing and mountaineering shells without jamming up your mobility with extra fabric. Like the Arc'teryx Maverick SV Jacket, this one uses a slimmed-down gusseted underarm sleeve construction to enhance your range of motion. Beneath the front zipper is a wind flap to minimize breeze penetration on blustery days, but the Maverick AR Jacket lacks the same wind resistance as the SV--although you shave at least six ounces off on the overall garment weight. This is a great technical front zip jacket for cool dry conditions and it's indispensable when paired with a waterproof shell."

From REI:
"A warm layer constructed from Polartec textured fleece fabric--streamlined design exudes simplicity and a trim fit layers nicely. Polartec Thermal Pro Nailhead is a patterned low-pile version of Thermal Pro, with two-way stretch mobility and excellent warmth. DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish helps shed water. Sleeves feature no-lift gusseted underarms. Features two hand pockets with laminated zippers and pocket facings and one laminated sleeve pocket with a laminated zipper. Adjustable drawcord hem keeps the warmth in. Full-length front zipper with slim interior wind flap."

"This is probably the most expensive fleece I've ever purchased. It looks great when you buy it and it fit me REALLY well.

The ironic part of this fleece is that Arc'teryx says they used the finish they did to prevent piling (or balling) that happens to fleece."

"Great looking, form fitting fleecy jacket. Was looking for something that was more flattering than the North Face Denali Jacket and found it in this jacket. It's hard to find something that cuts nicely for women and Arc'teryx makes it just right.

But note that it is not windproof."

"I love this jacket. Yesterday I braved mid-30 degree weather with 20-30mph wind in a cotton shirt and this jacket and was only midly cold standing around outside. I'm always cold, so that's a compliment. After working out in a gym and going back outside, I was fine."

This is by far the best fleece I have ever owned! It is warm, soft, comfy. No, it's not wind or waterproof, but the comfort it provides makes those little nuances go away. If you have an athletic build it seems to fit like a glove. I wear it over all other fleeces for everyday wear and highly recommend this to any one looking for a great looking great feeling jacket just to tool around in or as a very warm baselayer.

"I have had experience with two Arc'Teryx fleece jackets the Delta Shearling Jacket and the Maverick AR. Both are lightweight, tough, goodlooking and WARM. The Maverick AR is warm almost to a fault. In fact, I have never needed to pair a waterproof shell with my Maverick except on one occasion with 40 mph winds in below-freezing weather."

"This jacket is well made, good looking, warm, and tough. Not water or wind resistant, have a shell along. As a fleece jacket, it rules. Great collar, really nice sleeve, and wrist comfort. The Nailhead fleece is pretty smooth on the outside, pill resistant, quite thick, yet weighs less than the Mt."
