Arc'teryx: Men's Hercules Hoody - 3 Reviews

Ronald Copley - 2008-12-25
Quality gear, if a little pricey I have to admit that I was taken aback at first by a $350 hoody with a "Made In China" tag, as I was buying Arc'teryx by reputation only. An inspection revealed that the construction was acceptable. I've had the Hercules for a few weeks now and can say a few things about it. It is very warm for its weight. I was able to replace a military surplus parka that I'd been wearing. With proper base layer, the Hercules was easily able to endure a few 10F nights without missing a step. Again, very light and very warm. It sheds a decent amount of water and absolutely stops almost all wind. I sort of wish that the main zip was taped, but that is not a major complaint. All in all, if you catch it on sale (as I did), then I can recommend this soft shell as a solid buy. The fit is spot on and it will also draw some comments from its looks.

Quality and fit excellent I was pleased to see the usual quality and attention to detail that I have come to expect. I purchased a medium and it fit perfect with room for a layer or 2 underneath (I'm 5'10 & 160lbs). I wore it to ski on a windy day at Killington Vt and it was warm and comfortable to wear. It blocks some but enough wind got through to make me re-think what I am going to wear as mid-layers next time out.
