Took it out on a high mountain ridge during a blizzard. It was the wrong place at the wrong time, but things would have been much worse without this beast of a jacket. I stayed dry and lived to see another day. There was some off-trail route finding required to get back to civilization, and a few times I was worried about the thick brush and tight trees possibly doing damage to the jacket. My concerns were unwarranted. Jacket showed zero signs of the brutal stress test I put it through. I also couldn't believe how extremely breathable the jacket is. This shell is a true work of art and genius.

Alpha SV Jacket is Spartan tough!
6 years ago
I bought the Alpha SV Jacket for both training and running in winter Obstacle courses. I was looking for a Shell that could withstand training in the winter, doing hill climbs on slippery conditions. I spent hours researching different brands and eventually found the SV. This jacket is my go to for winter training. The Gortex breathes very well, but more importantly this jacket is able to withstand severe abrasive forces. I have climbed over 8 foot wall obstacles, crawled under barbed wire in the snow, and have tumbled down slippery slopes on many occasions. This jacket has not shown any wear or nicks at all. I have washed the jacket in cold water with a mild soap and it comes out looking brand new every time. I have worn the jacket over a Arcteryx Proton for extreme cold along with Arcteryx Alpha AR pants and a base layer and have done Trail running and hill repeats in -9 below zero degree's Fahrenheit. Jacket is like a portable shelter. No wind or water gets through it. If you are looking for extreme durability this Jacket is it.

Best hard shell jacket
6 years ago
I've used this jacket for the last few months, and it is my first Gore-tex pro jacket.
I love the durable fabrics used in this product. It feels invincible, but it is very light weight. But as all Gore-tex pro it russles.
The design of this jacket is second to none, The zips are amazing no zip garage but no leaks, brilliant. The pockets are large and well designed easily swallows an OS map, hat and gloves.
This is such a cleverly designed jacket the multiple adjusters for the hood make it easy to get a great fit. However if I could change one thing I would add a adjustable wire to the hood brim. I know stiffening is standard on all Arcteryx jackets.
This is a superb jacket, my new 'go-to' hardshell.

"True Armor" to varied weather conditions
6 years ago
Alpha SV is gradually evolution of perfect true armor to sever weather.
As an alpine backpacker, light and efficient piece is essential for our choice. This Alpha SV, is indeed what it should be. Compared Alpha FL, Alpha SL, or Beta LT, those are trim fitted design, Alpha SV has more room and then easier layers on all of insulated gears outside to protect my body against strong wind, rain and other elements. With upgraded N100p, it is supposed to be heavier than older version, but it is not, even lighter then before. It is quiet amazing to me. Thanks god, I own this magic pieces for myself and protect for me all the time of my each adventure.

Alpha SV Jacket
6 years ago
This is my second SV Alpha jacket, my first has lasted me five years before a few taped seems have come loose and the cuffs have come apart. I have managed to re-glue these myself. This jacket is now used for mountain biking.
The new jacket appears to be better made than my first and can not wait for the ski season to start. My first SV was nearly bomb proof, this one looks like it will be. The jacket fits true to size, it also gives you plenty of room for layering. I have a size large, I am 6ft large build and fits perfect.
I am a bit obsessed with Arc’teryx and own a lot of other jackets, base layers etc and I can not recommend this brand enough.

We all were trained to wash our old jackets as little as possible because it would degrade them. But now, especially with Arc'teryx, you can wash them all the time and they will not only breathe better, but the seams won't delaminate. Our body oil collects on the seams with exertion and can delaminate the seams by breaking down the adhesives keeping them together. Wash early and often and your SV should last you 20 years. Also, their warranty dept. can be a big help at times as well.
A good tech wash or a perfume and dye free liquid soap (half as much for full rinsing), will get it done. That is straight from Gore-Tex's website.
Happy ripping!

Incredible Jacket
6 years ago
I just finished my first year with my Alpha SV and could not be happier. It is very well built and the material is extremely durable. I was hesitant at first with the price, but after seeing it perform in very harsh conditions, it is by far the best shell I have ever owned. This jacket has kept me dry after hours of heavy rainfall and has kept the weather away during strong winds and snowfall on the mountains. There are no hand pockets so it may not be the best for casual use, but it is excellent for those who are hiking, mountaineering or climbing. It also fits very comfortably with a harness. The arms are slightly long which is ideal for climbing and reaching without exposing your wrists. I strongly recommend this jacket, if you intend on enduring severe weather conditions, it will not let you down.

Versatile Jacket
6 years ago
I've had my jacket for just over a year now and so far very pleased.
The hard wearing material of the jacket is like having an armored skin on you. Stray branches that might tear or leave a hole in other fabrics is simply deflected. Rocks are not an issue either. I don't recommend getting any thrown at you anyway. :)
In terms of keeping the weather out, rain or snow is not a problem and even the most fierce wind is kept at bay. In colder weather below -10C I use it over my Atom AR and it makes a nice layered system.
Finally the fit of the jacket itself is amazing. Never uncomfortable and always moving with you in just the right ways. The only downside that I can think of is that this wonderful armored skin makes a fair amount of noise due to the crispness of the material. If the fabric noise bothers you I would suggest the AR version which uses a noticeably less crisp material.
Overall highly recommended!

This jacket is amazing! If you spend a lot of time in the backcountry in snow or rain this jacket is for you. I'm also a big fan because it's hand made in Canada. To build this jacket it takes 182 operations and around 5 hours. That's some serious dedication that I personally can appreciate being in the manufacturing business. Make sure you buy timeless colors, because you're going to have this jacket for a very long time.
Thanks Arc'teryx for making this jacket for the past 20 years. Way to stick with it and continually improve on an awesome foundation.

I own 3 alpha sv 2013,2016 and now a 2018 model. The first 2 are still as new!!

Almost Perfect
6 years ago
I've had this Jacket since 2012 and I've primarily used it for winter sports. I started using it more as my go to rain jacket within the last year or two and have not been that impressed with its ability to hold up in a rain storm. I teach skiing and snowboarding in Vail and Steamboat Springs Colorado in the winter and I have been spending my summers hiking, camping, climbing, and traveling while not driving my ride share. I am outdoors more time than not and have tested this jacket in environments around the world. I would give this piece of equipment 5 stars if it were better at holding up in the rain.
It is still one of my favorite pieces of gear. The fit is amazing and as far as wind and snow are concerned it is amazing that something this thin can be so protective. From all over the US to Canada, Mexico, Peru, Nepal, New Zealand, Australia, Bangladesh I have tested Arc'teryx products and they are always impressive with the comfort and versatility of everything they make. However for the price I am disappointed in this particular product.
I have tried reapplying a DWR but it doesn't seem to make much of a lasting difference. This jacket soaks through within 10 minutes of moderate rain. In heavy rain it soaks through in less than five minutes.

Excellent jacket and service
6 years ago
I am currently using my third alpha s.v. jacked. After my first one was stolen I tried a couple off other jacket but could not find a jacked of the same quality and with the same levels of comfort. I bought my second jacked in 2015 and used it for hicking, camping and for walking around town. I took good care off my jacked, but after extended use it started to fall apart around the seams. I send it back to arc'teryx for repairs and was more than willing to pay for it. To my surprise I was offered the choice of a full refund or a brand new jacked. I was always a big fan of the arc'teryx brand, but after this level of service I must say I am really blown away by this outstanding brand.

Cette veste me suit tout l'hiver lors de mes expéditions. Surtout pour l'escalade, je n'ai aucun stress d'avoir une chute d'eau me couler dessus même si je dois faire du camping d'hiver à la fin de la journée. Elle est résistante et va continuer de m'impressionner. C'est sûr que dans une utilisation sévère, de la délamination sera observé, par contre Arcteryx a offert un remplacement de ma veste donc ce n'est pas une problématique!

After browsing and shopping for a decent goretex jacket for my type of hiking/alpine activities, I decided to purchase the alpha sv, and it has not disappoint me whatsoever since. I been in harsh changing environment where it kept me shelter from hurricane type winds up at summits and sideway ice pellets. I have trekked through wooded areas with annoying branches and this jacket has the durability to withstand it all. Even fell in jagged rocks and this jacket made no tear. Only bad side to this is the stiffness of the jacket but worth it for what I use it for.
