Hi again. The Arc'teryx Gamma LT jacket is built with a stretchier, more abrasion resistant fabric than the Arc'teryx Epsilon AR. The Epsilon AR has the advantage of being a bit more breathable, and has really great water resistance due to the all-polyester fabrics. The Gamma LT still resists moisture, but in heavy weather the Epsilon has a bit better resistance. My personal preference is the Gamma LT jacket, and partly because of the looks.
