Arc'teryx Beta AR Jacket - Men's
I am extremely impressed.

Ranked #1172 - Men's Technical Shells
September 26, 2008
I have used TNF shells, then I moved to Mtn Hardwear, this jacket is my first Arcteryx. It is the best shell I've ever owned. Lighter and more streamlined then any shell I've owned. What a product! Perfect for ski mountaineering, climbing, etc. I was concerned about what size to get. I'm 5'10" and 160 lbs. and the medium fits perfect. I use the Arcteryx Venta AR as a softshell layer. Perfect combo. Wow!
