Men's lightweight & durable Gore−Tex® Pro jacket with hood for climbing and mountaineering. The Alpha AR Jacket offers a finely tuned balance of light weight, extended durability, ergonomic performance and superior weather protection. This is a solid choice for climbers and alpinists looking for an all−round hardshell to perform across the spectrum of alpine conditions. The Alpha AR has a streamlined athletic fit and ergonomic e3D patterning that delivers maximum freedom on rock and ice.
The features of the Alpha AR are climber−friendly and selected to meet the alpine environment. Easily accessible crossover pockets sit high and work with harness and packs. The full coverage helmet compatible StormHood™ cinches tight, moves with the head and provides exceptional peripheral vision. Removable HemLock™ inserts keep the jacket in position while in use with a harness. Pit zippers add ventilation, and laminated WaterTight™ zippers help seal out elements.
An ergonomic fit allows the jacket to move as the body moves. Arc'teryx Ergonomic 3−Dimensional (e3D) patterning crafts the shapes of the parts in key joint areas to bring a remarkably efficient level of articulation that provides the Alpha AR's exceptional, purpose specific range of motion.
Constructed in N40p−X GORE−TEX® Pro 3L, a waterproof/breathable fabric that is notably lightweight and durable. The N80p−X GORE−TEX® Pro reinforcements at the shoulders, forearms and cuffs are specifically placed to protect areas exposed to high levels of abrasion. This strategical mapping delivers a jacket with longwearing performance and protection that weighs a mere 385 grams.
