Gear Review
8 years of Gamma SV

Ranked #2202 - Men's Softshell Jackets
May 4, 2009
I guess the Gamma AR is the updated Gamma SV. Still wearing mine from 2001. Bomber. Will not let you down in any conditions and is ready for anything: snowsports, backpacking, travel, around town, cycling, etc. After 8 years, the material has frayed around the cuffs, but the jacket is still highly functional. Pricey, but worth it. I hope the China-made jackets last as long as my old Canada-made Gamma SV.
