Arcteryx recently opened a factory in China operated directly by Arcteryx and Arcteryx employees. With that in mind, there have been many complaints that some of there jackets since the move have been sub-par. On the plus side, Arcteryx and Backcountry both have limitless warranties so if something does go wrong, you can return your gear.
