Arc'teryx Review - Atom LT Hoody and B360 Harness

Arcteryx Atom LT Hoody Review - Overview
The Atom LT Hoody is possibly the most versatile, comfortable, well loved, near perfect piece of alpine wear I've ever had the pleasure to use. Over the course of winter, ice climbing in Montana, Wyoming, Washington and the Canadian Rockies I NEVER left the car without this. The Atom LT is comparable to the Patagonia Nano Puff Jacket - Men's as a lighter weight synthetic insulated jacket. I’ve owned a Patagonia Nano Puff pullover for a couple years and have loved it literally to pieces, but I find the Atom LT to be much better fitting, more breathable, and better looking to boot.

Arcteryx B360 Review - Overview
This is by far the lightest and most streamlined of all the big wall harnesses we tested. In fact, it is so light that I use this harness a lot trad climbing and gym climbing. If you want a harness for long multi-pitch routes with the occasional big wall, this is the harness to get. And considering I hate hauling loads, and generally spend less than two nights on a wall, this is the wall harness I reach for most often. If you are hauling massive loads, or hanging around in your harness for many days, go with the Metolius Waldo that has beefier and cozier padding. The best value is still the Petzl Calidris, which is half the cost of the B360a.
