  • Discrepancy in billing information
  • Policy breach*

In the event your order is cancelled, you will not be charged, and any charges pending will be cancelled as well.

PRODUCT

Arc'teryx products are available directly through our website or from specialty outdoor clothing and equipment retailers around the globe – including our own brand stores.

Arc’teryx is committed to reducing our impact on the planet, setting ambitious Science-Based Targets and working towards a circular economy. This means reducing waste and use of excess materials. To this end, we recently made the decision to remove Arc’teryx stickers from online orders, in line with our climate impact goals and ongoing commitment to sustainability.

General sizing information for Arc'teryx products is included on our Sizing Charts page.

Although our WaterTight™ zippers are highly water resistant, they are not fully waterproof. Pockets constructed using waterproof fabrics may collect water if they are opened or accessed during wet or snowy conditions.

We strongly recommend that you keep any fragile or electronic devices in a sealable plastic bag inside an internal pocket. We do not recommend keeping items in your pockets that may be damaged by moisture. Arc'teryx is not responsible for any damage to electronic devices or personal equipment.

About Arc'teryx ReGEAR™

Arc'teryx ReGEAR™ is our reCommerce program. Our products come from guests trading in their fully functioning gear that they are no longer using or products that are professionally cleaned and/or repaired back to functioning standards.

In exchange for your fully functioning used gear, we will give you a gift card worth 20% of the original value that your product was listed for.

We also have some gear on the site that has been professionally cleaned and repaired in an attempt to extend the life of as many products as possible.

Our gear is built to last, and sometimes our products outlast our guests need for it. When we can keep those products in circulation through resale, we reduce our impact by keeping that gear in the field, which moves us closer to a circular economy.

Currently, ReGEAR™ is only available for shipping to the US & Canada. To see what's in stock and place an order, visit our online store. As the program grows we look forward to expanding to new regions, and to sell this out of our stores.

Arc'teryx is proud of the quality and performance of all our products. Every Arc'teryx ReGEAR™ purchase is covered by the Arc'teryx Limited Warranty. If you believe there is a manufacturing issue within the practical product lifespan of your item, visit our Customer Support Centre and start a Product Service Request.
