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

What is the difference between the Arcteryx Theta and Beta Jackets? They seem virtually identical other than a chest pocket.

Actually, you've got it completely backwards. The Beta line is cut tighter, which obviously means there is less room for layering versus the Theta. The Beta is geared for technical backcountry use like climbing, whereas the Theta is more for light hiking and general wear.
