Arc'teryx Sidewinder AR Jacket - Women's

Item #ARC0696 | 0 in Stock

China no good

By Ranked #588 - Women's Ski Jackets June 29, 2009

I got this for my wife, and it just wasn't good quality. It's clear that moving their manufacturing plant to China was a terrible move. We have many older pieces that were made in Canada and the quality is leagues above what is now. I don't mind paying up for gear if it's top notch, but I would recommend staying away from the Chinese Arc'teryx stuff.
