Arc'teryx Alpha SL Jacket - Men's

5 Star Rating

Great technical ultralight storm jacket

By Ranked #141 - Men's Rain Jackets April 12, 2007

If you want a jacket to be always carried with you in you mountaineering, backcoutry skiing and hiking this is it. Technical fit, minimalist design make this jacket a great peace of gear. Helmet compatible hood is the best I've seen on any PAC-LITE jacket, and this is for me very important for full storm protection. I pair it with a wind-resistant soft-shell for maximum breathability for ascensions.
I would suggest you an XCR jacket if you plan to wear it most of the time of your skiing, mountaineering adventures. PAC-LITE shells have generally the only drawback of being less durable and rip-resistant than a full XCRs.
