With the more durable fabric and heavier weight, can the Alpha SV be used all year? Or, is the Theta AR a better choice for a year round jacket?

That's the great thing about the Alpha SV. Although it's one of the toughest jackets made, it's still relatively light due to materials and construction. It will pack down the same as a Theta AR, and weight difference in nominal.
