Arc'teryx Gamma AR Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC1186 | 25 in Stock

First love

By Ranked #327 - Men's Softshell Jackets July 26, 2009

I got this piece about 6 years ago and put it through the wringer of daily wear and trips. Stood up to the challenge. Power shield is a great material for softshells, my personal preference is that it is the best. Mine was made in Canada, not sure how much the China production has affected it. Arcteryx is the industry standard, every other company copies them to some extent. If you have the money it is a solid investment. But it is time for mine to be retired. But for 6+ years of service it had a good run.
