Thursday, August 4th, 2011Atom LT Pullover
Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011In my opinion, the Arc’teryx Atom LT is their best value for performance and cost. It’s comfortable and stylish, but not flashy. It can be layered or worn as an outer garment, depending on conditions. And now, it’s available as a pullover. Insulated with Coreleft 60â„¢, the Atom LT Pullover also incorporates underarm stretch panels made from Polartec® Power Stretch® with Hardfleece® Technology. The softshell is wind resistant with a DWR coating. So long as you remain active it can work as an outergarment in all but downpours. The 1/2 zip front opening helps regulate your temperature.
Like all Arc’teryx garments, it features an articulated fit and is lightweight as well as compressible. The 1/2 zip only improves its packability. Unlike the standard Atom LT, the Pullover only has a single internal pocket. Available size Small – XXLarge in Black only.

New Arc’teryx Color?
Tuesday, July 19th, 2011Just like Arc’teryx developed Crocodile as their Green shade, word has it that they have developed a new LE shade called Wolf that is somewhere between Black and Grey. Few outside the outdoor market know that Arc’teryx has the largest and most extensive color shop in industry and are known to set the palette for the coming season. In fact, Arc’teryx has to be on the lookout for knockoff artists at major trade shows. In one case last year, they confronted a “fan” carrying a portable spectrometer attempting to take readings of their upcoming color palette.
The new shade is still a couple of seasons off but we look forward to this new option.
