Customer Reviews Arc'teryx Konseal Zip Neck

One of my favourite fleece jackets. In fact I like this even more than Konseal hoody because the sleeves are shorter (and no thumb holes). I don't miss the hood because I usually wear this with other hooded layers. Fit is overall perfect (size M, 179 cm / 73 kg slim, athletic build) and the color tangent looks nice. The jacket is breathable enough and doesn't restrict your movement. Konseal offers reasonable amount of warmth but not too much (like R1 sometimes does). I hope we'll see the full-zip Konseal in the future too...

I wear this for: - spring and fall golf as a 2nd layer - around town during spring, fall & winter under shell - a base layer skiing - a mid layer for warmer skiing under shell - a second base layer for very cold skiing - a base layer for fall & spring walking under a shell - a base layer for colder day walking under a Proton LT this is a must own if you do multiple outdoor activities in various cool or cold climates because it has so many uses This is in my Top3 must own Arc'teryx items

The Konzeal zip is extremely comfortable and warm. I just wish it came in other colors such as the dark red that is in the hoody version.

I really like this piece. It fits true to size and offers great warmth for its weight. The quality of Arc'teryx products is just superior.

Well some folk think that the brand is expensive (in the uk) but since being wooed by the superb quality you are getting, I really do think you get what you pay for with Arc'teryx...and a lot more! This top is just amazingly warm for its thickness and more versatile than the normal fleece jackets and fits better under a shell too. Highly recommended!

I really enjoy this fleece. I got it to subsidize my Konseal Hoody which I wear to the point of mandatory washing about once a week. This piece is great for riding lifts and cool weather adventures. Also doesn't have an overly "outdoorsy" look which can make it better to wear around town, if I ever went. All in all its a great fleece yet after having a Konseal hoody I don't feel its the same category. The fit is a bit shorter in the arms and lacks thumb loops. The fabric a bit thicker thus warmer without the same breathability. Both of those are features I love about the hoody. Perhaps rename this piece or make it the same at least.

I'm 5'10", 43" chest and 34" long arms. The fleece fits nicely in the chest area, but the sleeves are a bit too long. Would be nice if the sleeves had a thumb slot. Great for use on the slopes and as a light pullover in cool weather.

Hello, 6ft5, 178lb, 39ch, 32w. This fits me in a medium and I have room to spare in the biceps and chest. This is the longest layer I have personally tried on from Arc'teryx. It fits like a tall version. The torso length is about 3 inches longer in the front than my Atom SL in medium.

Love this layer. It's really warm once you can cut the wind (shell). Drys quickly. It's a great WARM layer without adding bulk. I ordered the "Pilot" gray and the zipper is the same gray as the rest of the pullover. I would have liked the orange contrast like the photo.

I wanted to love this pull-over. I love the style but more importantly, the functionality: it is very light and incredibly warm for the weight, very breathable. The fit could be better -- it fits nice across the chest, the sleeves are a sufficiently long, but I found it a bit too baggy in the abdominal area. The ultimate fall down for this shirt is the *stench*. After a single use, on a short (4 mile) hike, pulled over a merino base layer, the shirt absolutely stunk, so much so that it would need to be washed after each use. That is a deal breaker for me as I use this shirt on trips where access to laundry is not possible for multiple days. I am 5'9", 160, very fit, big shoulders/chest/back. I ordered size M and wore it over a 150 weight merino base layer.
