A Question about Arc'teryx Beta SL Jacket - Men's

By gri2440962 on September 24, 2008

Is this pretty much the same fit as the Arc'terix Alpha SL? From appearances it looks like this is the same just with more pockets. I'm asking because I was impressed with the reviews of the Alpha, but I like the pockets on this one. And I can sacrifice the extra ounce!

I think the major difference is that the Alpha SL has pit zits(core venting) and the Beta SL doesn't. Also the Alpha's hood is a lot bigger because it is made for a helmet. This is more of a backpacking jacket whereas the Alpha is designed for climbing.
