3rd in a Series of Alpha SV's since 2006

a month ago
Yesterday I received the latest in a series of 3 Alpha SV shells that I've worn since 2006. I wore my first Alpha SV shell all day, every day on a self-guided ascent of Denali in May 2007. On that trip, this shell's robust design was key to my comfort low on the mountain and it played a key role in withstanding Denali's heinous weather above 19,000 feet on summit day. This shell went on to serve me well for years after in adventures in the Lower 48, too. After I wore that first shell out, I wore the 2nd in this series of shells for everything from technical winter ascents and ice climbing outings in Colorado, to a ton of in bounds and backcountry ski days in all kinds of weather. Last year that shell was a key piece of gear on a week-long backcountry trip in BC where we experienced deep, deep powder and low temps of -35 degF. My latest Alpha SV shell promises to deliver more years of equally stellar performance. And its design meets the unique needs of my build. For example, this Alpha SV shell has a hood that will properly fit over a helmet worn on my enormous gourd on top of my excessively long turkey neck. I've never owned another shell that could do that.

Good until it falls apart

15 days ago
Completely failed after 4 years of use. I love this jacket, but it has a disappointing lifespan for the price. It feels like a shield of armor at first, but I started experiencing a small amount of delamination after 1 year of use, and all but one of the spring clasps for the hood and hem stopped working. One on the right side of the hood broke completely and is loose inside the jacket. After about 3 years of use the delamination grew considerably, now at 4 years about 30% of the jacket is delaminated, it has lost most of its waterproofness, the Velcro on the cuffs are blown out, and one of the zippers is starting to fail. It was washed according to instructions with tech wash and reapplying of DWR treatments, and was used heavily but that is literally what it is advertised to do. Seems like a lot of others have experienced the same thing, I don't buy that the delamination is from sweat and grime and not washing enough, because some of the first areas to go were areas that get the least wear, like the outside of the shoulder where the ski pass pocket is. I have a long sleeve Arc'teryx shirt that is just as old with many thousands of hard miles on it that is holding up better than their severe weather jacket, I'm just confused and disappointed why it falls apart so much for how good it should be

Alpha SV Poor Quality

17 days ago
Alpha SV was Purchased in Feb 2024. Used for a total 120 hours of resort skiing; delamination appears around the wrist area. The product has been regularly washed by Arcteryx store. I brought the jacket back to the store for a warranty claim and was told these delamination do not affect the performance of the jacket. I'm totally dissatisfied with made of the jacket that was priced over $1,000 and Arcteryx's response. I recommend shopping elsewhere. I would give a 0/5 Stars, not 1 of 5.

This Jacket is my daily driver, and it works for everything, like seriously everything from hiking to fishing to skiing on the mountain the Alpha SV delivers. It’s seriously tough from rocky hiking to my ski’s on my shoulders it’s still trucking along and best part I’m always bone dry. I can’t recommend the Alpha SV enough !!
