Arc'teryx Beta LT Jacket - Men's

The Arc'teryx Men's Beta LT Jacket gives you the lightweight construction you want for fast-and-light alpine assents without sacrificing any of the weather protection you need for life in the mountains. A Gore-Tex Pro three-layer, fully seam taped shell holds off the worst storm you'll encounter and breathes incredibly well. Underarm zips add even more venting for nasty approaches and horrendous trail-breaking days. Arc'teryx added a helmet-compatible hood to keep the snow out without forcing you to sacrifice your brain bucket. And with all this protection, the Beta LT Jacket still only weighs 13.3oz.

Bottom Line: Low weight without the fragile feel.

No complaints, it's a nice jacket, but...

By:

Pros: Steepandcheap, ~$250. Hooray for manufacture in Canada. I'm 5'11" 175 with broad shoulders and the large fits just right. Arc'teryx-grade construction as expected, and it's incredibly light weight. Cons: I had thought GORE-TEX® Pro Shell material was all essentially the same, and the 320N 3-Layer material in this jacket is durable I'm sure, but it feels very thin to me. I guess that's the trade-off if you want the lightest of shells. I was expecting a thick bomb-proof coat that I could use through all the seasons here in Alaska. I decided to return it and instead grabbed the Outdoor Research Mentor, which uses 40D and 70D Pro shell fabrics and feels indestructible (as I'm sure some other Arc'teryx jackets probably do).

Great 3 season jacket!

By:
December 20, 2008

This jacket fits great! I am 5'10" 210 lbs; athletic. It may be on the shorter side if you are taller, but fits me good and not to tight. I normally like an XL, but this fits nice for warmer weather. I had the Pack-lite jacket, but found the pro shell gore-tex to be much more sturdy and packs just as small.

I've got the Alpha LT which is my favorite all around waterproof jacket. Same fabrics, but different features,as the Beta LT. As light as Pac lite, but more breathable and way more durable. super packable still.

Top of the Line Jacket

By:
February 5, 2009

I am 5 ft. 10 inches and about 155, and a small fits me just right. I do not have a ton of room to layer, but that is how I like it.

One of the lightest three-layer pro shell jackets on the market. While it isn't as durable as the stuff in their SV line, as a piece to be used in alpinism, it is perfect.
