Fission sv temperature rating8/7/2023 ![]() ![]() I know Arcteryx will replace it if it's defective. I had a look online at the reviews and this really does seem to be a common occurrence. ![]() I went into an outerwear store today in Toronto to check out some jackets, and according to the guy who works there, he said that the Cerium has a common issue of losing down by feathers coming out of the jacket in various areas. ![]() I guess the obvious answer would be that the SV has a bit more to it, at a $150 premium over the LT. The Theta is where the real money goes.ĭid you try the LT before picking up the SV? The only difference I see spec-wise is that the the SV has grey goose down and the LT has white goose down, even though they're both rated at 850. The price for the Cerium is actually quite decent, comparatively speaking. So warm that I usually don't have a sweater underneath anymore whenever I go outside. I've had Arcteryx's Cerium SV Hoody for a couple years now, which I pair with the Theta AR shell for when it's snowing or raining. But over here in Toronto, they sure do look appealing while I'm freezing my balls off. I naturally refused to ever buy a Canada Goose jacket in Vancouver, simply because it's overkill for our -2 degree weather, and I generally hate trendy fashion statements. I might have to shell out for a parka if those lighter weight types of jackets are no good for the colder weather. Has anyone experienced firsthand any difference in quality?Īlso, for those of you who have this lighter weight type of jacket, what temperature range would you say they're effective? Are they more of a "wear a hoodie underneath" jacket? I don't really care much about the branding, but if the Arcteryx is going to last me years longer, I don't mind paying more. I've been looking at Columbia jackets simply because of the price point (also I can't get over the connotation that North Face carries), and maybe Arcteryx if I feel like throwing down a bit more. I've been looking for something in this style. I'm starting to go back and forth between Vancouver and Toronto a lot for work, and holy balls is it cold out on the east coast right now, and it hasn't even started getting into the real "winter weather". I've had the same Adidas winter jacket for around 7 years now and I think it's finally time for a change/upgrade. ![]()
