Arc’Teryx Incendo

The Incendo is an ultra-lightweight jacket designed for trail running. Announced at 115g (we weighed size M 123g), so yes, feather light! It is of course without saying, very compactable. This jacket is also perfect for biking. It is breathable, stretchy, well cut, figure hugging so you don’t get any material flapping in the wind. But the volume is enough to be able to go over a bike jersey with full pockets. Once you’re out of the downhill you can scrunch up the jacket and stuff it in a pocket.

 

Trail running it is still breathable, there are mesh underarms and the material is water repellent (DWR) but not waterproof and won’t keep you dry in a downpour.

 

The fabric from Lumin is very lightweight ripstop with stretch and doesn’t impede movements. The shoulders and arms move without any constriction.

 

The wrists are well designed with the fabric coming down over the top of your hand and good easy tightening. You can wear a big GPS watch and the jacket goes over it easily. There are reflective bands on the forearms and on the back.

 

The Incendo has waist adjustment on the right hand side, which adjusts using one hand. The elastic is very thin but very efficient. The central zip slides well and the curser is big enough to be grabbed when wearing gloves.

 

The developers at Arc’Teryx chose the option of having a low collar for this jacket. The collar doesn’t rub, but protection is minimal in this area of the body where blood circulation is important (and energy loss too). It has an original cut at the back of the collar, dipping down a little, does this limit perspiration?

 

There is a carefully placed pocket near the hips that fits a telephone or Ipod, with headphone access.

 

This is a really great jacket, breathable and very suitable for endurance sports. Ultra-light, comfortable, but not waterproof.

 

The Incendo is also available with a hood.
