Each new Player Character picks a class. Each class has several archetypes. A player character picks one at first level, gaining the basic features and proficiencies of that archtype. At levels 3 and 7 the player character may choose a new feature of the custom archetype features to add to their character. The PC can’t select the same feature twice.

Maybe it would be more thematic if a hermit gives up heavy armor proficiency in exchange for something else at first level?

Yes, give up the heavy armor, but at 3rd level when they take the archetype, one becomes a hermit, one isn't trained or educated to be one. Maybe give them 1 extra first level spell known
