Arc'teryx Venta SV Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC0689 | 85 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Hands down best softshell i own

By Ranked #25 - Men's Softshell Jackets February 4, 2009

To be truely honest i havent owned very many softshells but i have found that the venta hasnt let me down at all. The gore windstopper works great in the wickedest of windy days and i just throw my Exum Marmot shell over when the snow gets blowing and it keeps me warm in the cold no problem. It was thiner that i expected so at first i was a bit worried how it would do up here in Canada but so far its worked out great, its held up through the mountains on my snowboard and also the labour of making ice rinks. Breathable, durable, and wind proof this jacket is wonderful, The only problem is that i wish it wasnt so expensive.
