The Arc’teryx Men’s Fission AR Jacket is another excellent jacket from Arc’teryx, one that is insulated as well, for more warmth.

Even though its weight is kept at a minimum, the Fission AR Jacket is completely water and windproof, and all users agree that nothing can get through it.

Users would have liked to see a chest pocket as well, which would have complimented the other pockets of the jacket nicely.

The zippers are sealed and water proof, and the hood is considered excellent by all users, because it has plenty of room for those wearing a helmet.

The Arc’teryx Men’s Fission AR Jacket is a tad expensive, but the level of warmth it offers, and the complete protection from wind and rain make it an excellent choice.
