From Icy Climbs To Rainy Runs

This jacket has become a staple part of my late winter thru spring closet. From an ice climbing shell to a rainy run to an extra waterproof layer over my cerium on a shifty weather day it really does it all. I feel like the cut this year has a little more room around the hips which has helped a lot with layering so I don't feel stuffed inside it and I have a bit more room at the bottom line of my bust so when I layer I don't all of a sudden feel like the jacket is straining over my chest and restricting my movement. Would like a touch more room in the top of the bust though because when I put my hands behind my back you can see a faint tug. Also the pocket to zipper ratio has been perfect, My phone, transit card, wrapper, raffle ticket, and all the tiny things that fall out of pockets all the time, have not in this shell.

Breathable Waterproofing, Windproof, All-season!

The Beta AR is technical, breathable waterproofing, windproof, all-season technical shell jacket and continues to earn the top spot in my closet as a primary go-to shell I use more than any other jacket year-around in low and high exercise activities outdoors, travel, or casual wear use. Over 15 years, I have owned multiple Beta AR jackets in different colors and on average it lasts over 7 years before replacing with no seam, zipper, or waterproofing issues. The jacket has traveled with me on many adventures around the world. The Beta AR is lightweight, packable, and is exceptional for layering underneath or as a stand alone shell. I am 5’1” and the size small is perfect for a slightly oversized fit for layering. Highly recommend!

Great Jacket For Everything Outdoors

I honestly love all the Beta jackets from Arcteryx, with this one not being the exception. Highly recommend it for anything outdoors in any weather.

Not So Good This Time

Sent this back, it was too big, but I think it may not have been right even in the correct size. The cut was a bit funny, and the fabric very rustly and shiny. Shame, I’ve loved my last two Arc’teryx jackets. The colour was good though!

Near Perfect!

Love the fit, color, and quality. Wish there were attachments at the cuffs to hold a liner jack but otherwise is perfect!
