Arc’Teryx LEAF Atom LT Jacket
New for fall 2009 from the LEAF (Law Enforcement and Armed Forces) division of Arc’Teryx is the Atom LT Jacket. The Atom LT is a mid layer that functions as light outer wear. It’s designed to be modern, warmer and more water-resistant alternative to the old M65 field jacket button-in liner, to which some manufacturers added buttons in the front so it could be worn as a stand-alone garment. It’s a trim-fitting insulating jacket that can be worn as a layer under a hard shell to provide warmth, or by itself as a wind and water-resistant jacket. It is very lightweight for the warmth it provides and is highly compressible. I see it replacing a lot of mid-layers, sweatshirts and light weight fleece sweaters.
