ARCTERYX Cerium SL Jackets: High Powered Warmth With The Weight of an Apple

Published by Mountainblog on .

arcteryx 2Offering instant warmth in a 185 g package, the new ARC’TERYX Cerium SL Jacket is the logic lightweight add-on to the successful Cerium family. Using 850 fill power grey goose down and a unique, incredibly lightweight 7D ripstop face fabric, the Cerium SL is an essential outdoor piece.

Incredibly light and compressible, the design has painstakingly removed weight through construction, materials and fit. High loft 850 fill power European grey goose down delivers maximum insulation for minimal weight. The down is resilient and easily compressed an important factor in situations where it’s important to minimize gear volume.
Thisela™ shell fabric is a silky, ultralight, downproof 7D Japanese nylon. The exceptionally fine filaments used to create this fabric are tightly woven, creating a dense weave that is extremely durable for its weight. A challenge to sew because it is so fine, Thisela™ fabric requires the great care, craftsmanship and attention to detail that defines Arc’teryx products.

Committed to designing the lightest weight, highest performance piece possible, this minimalist design has shed grams without impacting function. Micro baffles with sewn through construction reduce material requirements while providing a trim, thermally efficient fit. Elastic is used at the cuffs and rear hem to seal out drafts without the added weight of drawcords and cordlocks. Even the zippers are minimalized.

Down Composite Mapping places down fill where it’s needed most, and synthetic fill where condensation and ambient moisture are most likely to occur.

Part of a wide range of Arc’teryx insulated pieces that meet the performance needs of specific environments and activities; the Cerium SL Jacket combines innovative fabric technologies, exceptionally lofty grey goose down insulation and an essential, minimalist design.
