Arc'teryx Gamma MX Softshell Jacket - Men's

Item #ARC0881 | 1 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good one.

By Backcountry.com Employee November 30, 2007

I would give it 5 stars if I was a climber which I'm not, but the MX (mixed use) jacket is supposed to be an all around jacket, and it is, but with long sleeves. It does shed water and dry out brilliantly as well as block the wind. It's great for moving around while backpacking and in camp is really nice when used in tandem with a wool base layer. And, of course it helps that it looks really sharp at the bars after a day of shredding pow.
