Love sleek design lines that compliment your curves instead of covering your torso with the dreaded box look? Welcome to the Arc’teryx Women’s Covert Hooded Fleece Jacket. The clean, casual cut of this hoody goes easy on the eyes, while the Polartec Thermal Pro fabric insulates on winter days. Gusseted underarms keep the hem of this jacket down when you lift your arms, and unlike some gussets, the design also reduces bulk so you won’t feel like you’re smuggling gerbils in your armpits. Pull up the close-fitting scuba hood and let the fast-wicking performance take care of you when it gets hot on the mountain or in town.
No. The Hercules is one of the Arcteryx hardface fleece jackets which is DWR treated. This is a standard thermal pro fleece so it isn't going to be very water-resistant.
I bought one of these 4 years ago and it looks exactly the same. I bought this one with a hood and it is already pilling, after only 3 weeks. This was a great disappointment and shows lower quality when moving your company from Canada to China. Even worse, its more expensive than my first one.
There was a bad batch of Polartec fabric that was discovered during 08/09. The fabric on current pieces should be back to highest quality, and not subject to pilling. My older one is going on 4 years old, lots of wear, and very minimal pills.
Yeah, they look great, are cut well, and are very flattering..... until they go through the wash and start pilling. I have two. I put one in the dryer and only line dried the other. They both pilled - the line dried one may be a bit worse. For the price, I would expect these to last forever in great condition. Kind of a bummer.
This fleece is fantastic! I bought mine in Svalbard, Norway, at at sports shop that only keeps the ultimate clothing for cold weather. If you want a high quality fleece that looks really cool whether you are going to the store or hiking - this is it! And the colours are great!

I want to get this hoody for my girlfriend. She usually wears a small in almost everything, but i remember she tried on an Arc'teryx jacket in a store and i thought she said medium fit her the best. She is about 5'6" and about 115 lbs. Do any girls out there know which size might fit her the best? Thanks!
I bought this jacket a couple of years ago and it STILL rocks. It washed well and it still looks pretty new! I wear the heck out of it. I just wanted to provide this because buying this jacket is an investment, and it has paid off. Sizing was also right on. Not always what I find from ArcTeryx.
pilling will be covered under warranty, and is probably due to a bad batch of fabric from Polartech. I've had mine for a couple years with almost no pilling
The Arc'teryx site doesn't say anything about the material not pilling. I checked the Polartec site as well, it doesn't say it either. I think mine started pilling right after I washed it the first time.
I have an Arc'teryx rain jacket that fits perfectly. But not this jacket. It was too short in the arms and short to my waist. I was bummed. But Backcountry did and amamzingly fast exchange and helped me to order something I am happy with.
I bought this jacket about one year ago. Although I did not
I bought this jacket about one year ago. Although I did not wear it often, the seam unraveled. Can i send it back? (I live in germany but you could send a new or repaired one to an address in the US.) I dont have the bill of the jacket, it is not on my account, maybe I bought it from my daughtrs account. So: what can i do? Thank you
If you can find the order history on an account or the receipt or the email with the order number, then you can return it. Otherwise they can't take it on faith that you bought it here.Arc'teryx has a lifetime warrantee for manufacturing defects. I would go to www.arcteryx.com to get in touch with their customer service department. They may be able to help you.
I have had this jacket for about a month. It's great by it's self, the fit is perfect. But it's also a great item for layering. Not to mention how good backcountry does with customer service!
I just called them yesterday, and they will replace mine with a new one, that shouldn't pill. I was surprised too, given the cost of the jacket. I still love the jacket, it's the only one I wear almost every day in the fall/winter. The cut and fit is great!
There is much to love of the Arc'Teryx Covert Hoody. I absolutely love the fit, the soft fabric, the warmth, the color. It isn't a lint magnet like many of my other fleeces, and just looks nicer than traditional fleece. But don't mistake it for a softshell or great outer layer. As described, it has no wind protection. I just layer a light shell over it for those days. I could easily wear mine every day and get tons of compliments on it.
I bought this hoody in a Meduium green tea. It is quite lovely - professional enough to wear to work, yet warm and functional for the weekend. I would give it 5 stars if Arc'teryx had stuck with manufacturing in Canada not China.
This is a great fleece for outdoor anything. I love how cozy it is and warm even in the below zero temps up in the mountains. Moves well with activity.
I had to send this fleece back as it wasn't warm enough. Also, it was made very cheaply. The other arcteryx products I've seen have always been made beautifully, but this one is made in China and not consistent with the usual Canadian quality. It was also too short for wearing it for anything but casual use, and wouldn't be very good for even layering because of lack of warmth and length. In the end, this fleece isn't worth the money for active wear, but is cute for casual use, and the colors are truly beautiful.
