Arc'teryx Gamma MX Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC1183 | 215 in Stock
3 Star Rating

over priced

By Ranked #458 - Men's Softshell Jackets May 26, 2011

After 2 years of varied use, I've found that I love the look and fit of this jacket but not the performance. In rain this jacket offers very little protection, if there is a chance of rain leave it behind. In snow it does fairly well, I've used it both as a shell and insulation with solid results. It's best use however is for crisp dry days where you will be active.

But unless you can get an amazing deal like I got, save your money and get a similar jacket that will perform just as well at about half the price. At $150 bucks I'd love it, but it's priced way too high.
