Arc'teryx scores again
By Bob Watson
Ranked #1981 - Men's Rain Jackets
December 27, 2007
I have several Arc'teryx jackets; all either soft shell or wind/rain jackets. All I would score as "5's". The Alpha SL Jacket is great for morning hikes or walks and makes a perfect jacket for bike riding. The breathabilty is perfect as is the protection from wind and rain. I am 5'10" 180 pounds medium frame with wide shoulders and the Large is perfect size for all my Jackets.
