Description of Arc'teryx Maverick AR Jacket - Men's:
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.
Bottom Line: Wear the Maverick AR as an insulating layer under a shell or an outer layer in cool weather.
I ordered this jacket to be a little bit more of a fitted fleece to go under my shell more comfortably, and it has worked out excellently. However, when they say it is fitted, they mean it. Don't order it intentionally too fitted. However, it has kept me incredibly warm, especially for its size. Definitely a good jacket to have.
Only other thing would be that it seems to attract hair and lint like substances very well.
i love the coat. i live in houston, tx and it's perfect for the winter months here. with a shell on top it's a great for layering on the slopes. as some have reviewed, it does not offer much in the way of wind protection. as another reviewer also said, the fabric is unique. mine has pilled somewhat in the year and a half i have owned it. the worst part though is that i own a white dog that sheds. this jacket absolutely soaks up dog hair and it's a pain to get it out. other than that, great jacket that i hope to keep rocking for awhile.

This jacket is snug, but doesn't feel contraint. The fit and movement is perfect. The only negative is that the collar is too stiff. It pokes underneath my chin when look down slightly. They should have made the chin part a little softer.
