Light, protective outerlayers for alpine elements. Ideal for spring weather and changing conditions on your next run, hike, or climb.
WOMEN’S SHELL JACKETS
As your first line of defense from rain, wind, and snow, a women’s shell jacket has to provide weather protection without letting you overheat. Breathable, waterproof GORE-TEX jackets, ultralight wind protection, versatile softshells – Arc’teryx shell jackets for women offer focused performance for each of your adventures.
WATERPROOF GORE-TEX SHELLS
GORE-TEX is the only waterproof, windproof, breathable material effective and durable enough to meet our standards. We offer a range of fabrics and styles. Our iconic Alpha SV has a rugged GORE-TEX membrane laminated to a highly durable face fabric. It’s a waterproof women’s jacket built for serious, repeated mountain use. Exceptionally versatile, the Beta GORE-TEX collection performs across a wide spectrum of mountain activities and seasons. Ultralight GORE-TEX jackets for women include our Norvan trail running shell and the durable Beta LT Hadron.
WEATHER-RESISTANT SOFTSHELLS
Versatile, durable, stretchy softshells are breathable, weather resistant – but not waterproof – and perfect for single-day adventures in shifting conditions. The durable Gamma MX is our warmest option, while the superlight Gamma SL is a go-to for milder conditions. GORE-TEX INFINIUM™ softshell fabric – windproof, water-resistant, and breathable – is used in the Kadin, a women’s stretch softshell jacket that packs into its own pocket.
WINDSHELLS
Everyone needs a windshell. Easy to pack and ultralight, our women’s windshells offer wind resistance and repel light moisture – an easy choice when conditions are mild but windy. A longtime favourite, the Squamish Hoody is versatile enough for hikes, climbs, runs – anything that takes you outside. The Stowe Windshell blocks breezes and sheds mist with versatile styling, and the Norvan Hybrid Jacket delivers zonal wind protection while trail running.
EVERYDAY SHELLS
And we make shells for everyday wear, including the GORE-TEX Codetta Coat, weather-resistant Solano softshells, versatile System_A jackets, and the sophisticated women’s Veilance collection.
