Arc'teryx Theta AR Jacket - Men's
Bomb proof
By Benjamin Tupper
Ranked #592 - Men's Technical Shells
July 12, 2009
This is the greatest shell I have ever owned. I have taken on the trail, up mountains, all seasons and am constantly impressed by its performance. The price was tough to deal with and after trying out some other jackets, REI eVent jacket (which fit horribly), I decided to bite the bullet and purchase this work horse. I was not disappointed. One word of advice, try the thing on to get the sizing right. I am a large guy, always worn L in every other coat, shirt, softshell, etc. The large in this coat felt sloppy on me so I opted for the medium. Perfect fit! Overall, I have yet to find a better coat.
