I'm considering this jacket for an all-purpose jacket for activities in the wet/cold. I currently have the beta SL for a light weight shell and have paired it with the Hercules. Do you think the Hercules would pair well with this jacket? I'm also considering getting the Gamma MX since it has a more athletic fit compared to the Hercules' relaxed fit.

Thanks in advance!

The Arc'teryx Theta SV would pair really well with a Hercules. In fact, the Hercules is designed to work as an outer layer for moderate conditions, and under a Gore Hard shell for heavy conditions. I find the fit of both the Gamma MX and Hercules work well as layers (the Hercules isn't too relaxed) but prefer the Hercules as a layering piece.
