| First off, this is a very lightweight jacket, which is quite warm for its weight. It is not windproof at all, however this is not the purpose of the jacket, so it isn't a downfall. One problem I have with it is incredible amounts of lint and pilling have developed very quickly; also attracts hair like no other. Other than that, great jacket with excellent form fit. |

| I love this sweater! It keeps me warm without getting me too hot. Here on the east coast, Northface is king. But, I enjoy the fact that Arc'Teryx makes clothes that are unique and extremely functional. The fit is good on the jacket but make sure you get a size larger than you normally would. I usually wear large but I ordered an extra-large for this sweater. I would highly recommend this sweater. |

| The sleeves are a little short and so is the torso. This was not an issue with the Regent I also have in the same size. Other than that, wow is this thing comfortabl! The fleece has a nice dense ''weave'' on the outside. |

| The Arcteryx Apache is a great piece of kit--very warm and seems like it will be very durable, even under a pack. The fleece is a bit thicker and more tightly woven than the Covert collar zip top. I ordered a large as that is the size Covert top that I wear. However, the Apache was a bit too snug, particularly in the arms. I returned it for an XL which fits more like the large Covert. These guys were great--the replacement arrived in three days and they gave it to me at the original sale price, even though the sale had ended in the interim. |

| This jacket is very warm and comfortable. I can wear it to school and around the house and not overheat, yet at the same time, wear it outside in chilly fall weather and be fine. Great jacket and something you should definitely have in your cache. |

| very good piece of clothing, warm and light and suprisingly water repellant. Fits very well however you may have to go up a size, I know I did. I haven't used it for anything technical, but I'm excited to use it skiing this winter. Overall great buy. |

| this is a solid fleece. it is light and very warm. It is definitely a 200 weight fleece and nothing less. Very soft inside. it is cut a bit shorter than I was expecting which means it will work great under my shell. I am 5'8" and the L comes just below my belt. A medium fits me but since I weigh about 190 (all muscle of course) I usually go with a L in arc'teryx gear. I think it is worth noting that this fleece is very solid construction wise. I have had some bad experiences with cheaper fleece in the past (columbia, TNF) and I think this is worth the extra money. I was also looking for a fleece that breathes real well, windproofing was not important and I think this one does the trick very well. |

| so i took the apache on an offroading weekend trip in the mountains and if it were not for this glorious product i prolly would've froze to death! it poured down rain the entire weekend and it didn't even penetrate! i was in an '87 xj with an 8 inch lift and we went through some pretty killer deep muddy water and my window was down and it went alllll over the inside of the jeep..and me. haha..i didn't even notice. it wasnt til later on that i realized i sprayed the complete back seat and all my camping gear in the jeep and that it got all over me. i brushed it right off! super durable, breathable, and high quality. kept me warm when i was outside in the rain on top of the mountains. the buckwheat looks great and i loved the fleece so much i'm gonna order another one. i wear my stuff slim fitted and i am 6'2 168 with a long torso and i'm a skinny lad and the small fits me great. i wish it was a tad bit longer cus i ride my pants low, but it still hangs a little bit over my belt. if you like slim but not too slim and have my bodybuild then get the small..otherwise go medium. it looks great on and holds up even better. i'd recommend this to anyone! |

| i love this fleece. it is very warm and decently breathable. the fabric is tough and dose not pill. the zipper is fairly long for a chest zipper and the chest pocket is on the bigger side. their is only a few things that could be changed. the "DWR" finish is not water resistant at all and it looks more like a sweater than a fleece which allows you to wear it in more formal settings..... very warm and very good |

| Favorite Fleece 01-20-09 |

| Absolutely my favorite fleece to wear in almost any fall/winter conditions. The design is unique and the construction is top notch. It always seems to keep me warm, but never lets me get hot. It doesn't block wind in the least, but on days as cool as 30 degrees (f) this sweater and a t-shirt keep me warm. On windy and cold days, layering with a windproof jacket create the ultimate combo. We recently had double digit sub zero temperatures in Chicago and a t-shirt, this fleece and even a light wind blocking jacket (Beta) kept me warm enough to help shovel walks and dig out neighbors. Just a tremendous piece of clothing. |

| I got this as a gift and couldn't be happier (gf got it on sale I hope!). Usually I take a small (5'6, 150lbs), but I had to return this for a medium so definitely size up. The medium fits perfect, though, and it layers great underneath my WindStopper fleece and hardshell as a mid layer. It's Polartec Thermal Pro so don't expect it to stop even the slightest breeze - that's not what it's made for. It will keep you very warm, though, when layered with a windproof shell. I highly recommend this if you don't mind spending the money for a quality pullover that'll really keep you warm. |

| I love this gear. It fits me very well and i've had no promlems with it thus far. I'm about 6'1'' and 200lbs, athletic build, got the large and it fits pretty snug to my body, which i like. It's not like wearing under armour, but it fits snug. If you like a looser fit, go up a size. I usually wear a base layer under and have the Arc' Teryx Alpha SV and Stinger jackets to go over which works great. I am not a cold natured person, but this top breathes well and I don't get too hot or too cold. Any person that wears this gear knows its pricy, but WELL worth the price. Would def. recommend this for others. |

| Mediocre 01-16-08 |
Anonymous:
|
| pros: looks, construction, warmth, venting
Cons: too short in the sleeves and not long enough in the torso
Bottom line: I got this piece for Christmas, and while it looks good and is warm, it fits too goofy for my liking. I'm 6'4" so i need something that is not going to sit above my belt. Seriously consider your height before getting this piece
Update: Exchanged for Arcteryx Tau (will write an update as soon as i get it)

| This is by far the most used piece of gear I own. It's very warm and layers great. My only...I wouldn't say complaint...we'll say 'thing'...is that the cut doesn't really work for the long torso'd crowd. this goes for most outdoor gear as a lot of clothing is cut for harness use. I just don't like my belly button exposed every time I reach up. The stitching is unraveling a tad in the cuff also, but that's more attributed to the beating I give it. No holes have come of it. |

| Just recently received my Apache fleece--by far the best investment I have ever made for cold weather, relaxation gear. Extremely soft and warm--obviously well made and durable. Kept me warm in 25 degree weather with only a t-shirt on. Strongly suggest the investment! |

| Great mid layer pull over 11-30-06 |

| This is almost the perfect mid layer. Not only is it lightweight, compressible, and warm Polertec, it has several key features in a pullover that I considered prior to this purchase. The laminated vertical zippered chest pocket keeps my ipod close to my core to preserve battery life and provides easy access under a shell even with gloves on. I also liked the reinforced elbow pads and flatlock triple stitched seams to insure long life. Looks great too. Simply put, when you want the best, go with ArcTeryx. The only brand still made in North America. ArcTeryx: next year include a hem drawcord, hand warming pockets, a curved zipper or chin guard and I'll buy 3.
I rate you guys BEST IN CLASS and highly recommend due to pricing, customer service, fast shipment, and return policy. Simply Awesome. A+++

| Apache AR In Real Life Usage 05-27-06 |
|

| I got an Apache AR fleece to replace an aging Columbia fleece. Arc'teryx had an excellent reputation for high quality items, reviews were positive, and I liked the style of it. Having now used it for several weeks over a few light hikes and mostly day-to-day living, my impressions are very positive.
It is a thin layer compared to many other fleece tops, but insulates quite well despite it. The zip neck is surprisingly effective at moderating temperature by simply zipping up more or less. The brushed collar and flatlocked seams worked by preventing any chafing regions and I find the trim cut very comfortable overall. The chest pocket is a good place to stash a wallet, and the zipper on it (and the front zip) are both high quality and slide easily, even when pulled from strange angles.
The only annoyance I have discovered with it is from the brushed fiber ends of the sleeves; the way they are stitched on makes it slightly thicker than the sleeve material itself. Thus if you rest your arms when typing (or some similar activity) it creates an uncomfortable pressure spot on your wrist, unless you pull the sleeve down or shove it up a little. Of course the Apache is designed as outdoor gear, so I doubt this was a design consideration, but just about everyone uses a fleece for day to day life too, and at this price point I expect damn near perfection.
So overall, only one very minor complaint about an overall excellent product. If you don't have a gut, and are looking for a nice fleece, it gets my thumbs up. |

| I am sorry to report that the Apache AR Zip was not one of the greatest purchases my husband has made. We LOVE Arc'teryx and my husband loves this pullover however it pills up something fierce and looks terrible. As far as what it claims to do performance wise it lives up to every expectation only it doesn't survive the washing machine. |

| Probably the most comfortable ski shirt I have ever owned. Does not have any wind protection so it dries very fast. Also keeps me cool when I'm climbing. |

| I love other Arc’teryx stuff I have, but have been really disappointed with the Apache AR Zip. Despite the tighter weave of the fleece, it has started to pill after only a month of normal wear. This is made even more noticeable because the fleece has a slight pattern to it. Doubt I'll buy another Arc’teryx fleece again. |

| The service was great. I live in Europe and I had to confirm my credit card number. I did it with the online chat and it worked great. This fleece is very good. I have used it with my Arc’teryx Theta jacket. I normally have a T-shirt, the Apache fleece, and my jacket and it works very well. It is a very light fleece that you can have in your backpack. When it is very cold (-20C) I have this fleece under my Arc’teryx Maverick fleece and I don't feel any cold.

| The Arc'teryx Apache AR Zip is so nice that I've bought more than one. It's warm, has a unique look and feel, and it is made with quality craftsmanship. The only drawback is that it has a very slim profile, so if you are overweight, the sizing might not work for you.
Yes, Arc'teryx products might be a little pricier than other brands, but they're worth it! |

| An old friend of mine was head jacket designer at Low Alpine and she said that these were industry renowned as the best in the world. She was right, this wind topper fleece is outstanding, it is just too good to be true, fabric is comfortable, warms and is fine in moderate rain. Wash it and it is perfect again. Expensive but worth it. |

| As you'd expect from a top manufacturer like Arc’tery, this is a very nicely designed garment. It has clean and simple lines, is lightweight, and looks great. It seems like it should be durable too, although I've not yet had time to assess this. My only tiny gripes are these: firstly, the sizing is a little on the small side. If you're used to generous American sizing, you might be caught out. I'm used to buying medium sizes, and the medium here turned out to be a little snug, particularly around the underarms.
Secondly, the fleece was slightly thicker than I expected: thicker than a conventional lightweight fleece, but thinner than heavyweight outerwear. Still, I expect that as winter rolls in, I'll appreciate the extra warmth.

| Good investment. The best half-zip jacket I've even encountered. The material on the interior of the jacket is soft and keeps you very warm. The jacket fits well, and can employed for a pleathora of roles, inlcuding base layer, jacket inside a rain shell, or the final layer in on a cool day. |
