Arc'teryx Gamma SV Jacket - Women's

This is my 2nd purchase Gamma SV jacket, my first one is in black. The jacket is easy to pack, thin & stylish. I dislike bulk in any form, especially when traveling to various climates. I have taken this jacket to Europe and it's perfect with a cashmere scarf. I wear it to work and to events and get compliments often. This style fits almost like a tailored jacket and truly you can take it from the windy slopes to the Opera. Chris in Southern California

Gamma SV women's jacket was the best purchase I've made in outdoor apparel in a long time, hands down! It's surprisingly warm and blocks wind like you wouldn't beileve. I love the tight wrist cuffs, great feature. It also fits like it was made for me. Highly recommended!

The Gamma SV is an ideal jacket for hiking and backpacking. In warmer weather it can be used as an outer layer and in the cold a mid-layer. I also use the jacket on winter ascents as an outer layer; perfect for cold temps. It fits perfectly and is unencumbered by pit zips, which are not necessary. Pockets are high on the jacket for easy access when wearing a pack. It's stretchiness is great for mobility and it's always kept me dry, even in inclement weather. I hike year round in the mountains of Vermont and New Hampshire and find this jacket indispensable.

an almost perfect jacket. great for hiking, a wonderful mid-layer to go under a shell or parka. the only problem-and this seems to be an Arc'Teryx issue in general-is that for a D-cup the fit is snug and does not permit layering very easily. Going up to a size M is not ideal, as the sleeves end up too big. oh well, too bad arc'teryx doesn't have a Beyond Fleece-type setup for custom jackets. It is a lovely jacket, though.
