Product description
Tough and reliable waterproof jacket
Play it safe in bad weather with the Beta AR Jacket Stormhood from Arc'teryx. Heavy rain, moisture and snow are stopped as soon as they try to enter the waterproof jacket, thanks to its durable materials in combination with a trusty GORE-TEX membrane. Carrying a backpack is also no problem with this jacket, as the material is particularly tough and additionally reinforced in the shoulder area. Meanwhile, should you arrive at the summit drenched in sweat, the jacket scores extra points due to its windproof properties. These can not only extend your most precious minutes at the top of a mountain, but also make the descent much more pleasant as well.
Breathable properties for dry conditions
Unpleasant conditions on the ascent are the most challenging for any waterproof jacket. This is where the Beta AR Jacket Stormhood offers perfect performance, as it prevents moisture from getting inside while also ensuring that any perspiration can evaporate away. As a result, you benefit from breathability that is second to none. Plus, the pockets of the jacket are offset upwards, so that they are even accessible when wearing a climbing harness. This means you always have direct access to your most important items.
The advantages at a glance:
- Breathable, waterproof and windproof jacket
- Tough and durable materials
- Front pockets accessible with a climbing harness on
- Adjustable cuffs with hook-and-loop fasteners
