Gear Review
Disappointed

Ranked #84 - Women's Softshell Jackets
November 21, 2008
As previously reviewed, I generally love all things Arc'teryx. This jacket was a replacement in size for the one purchased last season but not yet warn. This jacket is made differently from the one I reviewed on March 21, 2008. The reason is that it is made in China. The other Arc'teryx one was made elsewhere. BAD MOVE, ARC'TERYX!!!!! There is a change in the quality. Overall most people will probably be ok with this jacket. I'm not sure if I will keep this one. If other Arc'teryx jackets are going to be made in China, I will stop buying them. All of my other Arc'teryx merchandise has been manufactured in Canada and I can tell that the difference. Sad. I have purchased 4 jackets from the Arc'teryx brand and this is the first one I don't like.
