I bought my first Arc'teryx piece about 5 years ago as the Gamma SV softshell. Anyways that coat got me hooked, I have since bought nothing but Arc'teryx items when needed. I bought the Sidewinder AR in slate last winter and absolutely love it. It is near perfect for any weather as I have worn it while skiing to mid-summer rainy days. I'll layer a t-shirt with my Maverick AR Fleece, Gamma SV and the Sidewinder while skiing and I'm as warm as can be. I don't think I'll ever find a better coat unless Arc'teryx makes it. Also I see no difference from the AR to the SV other then the hood is stowable with the AR and it weights about 1 ounce more, if you can feel that ounce then you're a freak of nature. So buy the coat, we all know you want to.
