A jacket that cost 600€ and made with PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) chemicals? No way. I will return it right away, there are better and cheaper options.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Hi Pier. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Beta AR Jacket. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed and we will make sure to pass your comments to our team. While it still features a C6 DWR, we are working on shifting our products to become PFC-free. We recommend looking at the Beta SL Jacket and Beta Jacket for PFC-free alternatives.

Veste de qualité
7 months ago
Pour remplacer mon ancienne veste Beta AR, j'ai retrouvé les qualités de cette excellente veste avec en plus un choix de coloris plus étoffé. J'ai déjà testé cette veste sous des journées entières de pluie sans jamais être mouillé ni par la pluie, ni par la transpiration.
Toutefois, j'ai trouvé que les manches étaient plus longues que sur mon ancienne veste qui datait de 2014.

Quality Dropoff

Not like the old jackets. Materials seem cheaper and I’ve worn it infrequently (under 5 times) but the wear is really starting to show. Shoulders fit too tight considering torso bagginess and arm length

Hello there, thank you for your feedback on the sleeve length. We design our products with a range of body types in mind, but we understand that fit can vary. The longer sleeve length is intended to provide better coverage during movement and outdoor activities, but we realize this might not suit everyone. We appreciate your input and will pass it along to our design team for future considerations.

Go up a size for shred-ability

This jacket is amazing! I knew it would be but aside from the quality and durability I am very grateful for their customer support. My jacket was stolen off my porch before I even got home but they hooked me up with another one and for that I’ll be a return customer. 5’10” 190 pounds and got an XL for a good all mountain look and to accommodate for mid layers.

Disappointing
10 months ago
Very disappointed... Bought this jacket in 2021, sent for repairs in 2024 through the official Arc'teryx repair system. The goretex layers were separating, and a blue cord was popping from the hood, but the jacket was still wearable. I am told the jacket is already out of warranty (after 3 years, though warranty is supposedly for life) because it is too degraded, and that they cannot make any repairs.
If a 600€ jacket can only last 3 years of non-daily usage, then this is extremely dissappointing quality. I highly discourage buying this.

Ok but not great
11 months ago
I have owned this jacket for a few months and am already regretting my purchase.
A few days after getting the jacket, my partner noticed a weird stain around the collar. This stain does not go away, you can wash it was some detergent (have to be careful with the Gore-Tex) but it remains. I have to follow review guidelines so I can't speak more about this.
Other than my particular issue, which to be fair, could likely be avoided by picking a darker color, there are some other issues. Like one reviewer mentioned, the sleeves are really long and the overall fit is weird. It's tight in the shoulders and chest but loose everywhere else. But, if you are a lanky skinny fat guy then this jacket might be the perfect fit for you.
The DWR is the worst I have ever experienced. After a day or two of moderate (not heavy) rain, it already wore off. I was unable to refresh it in the washer/dryer so I had to apply a new DWR coating but that didn't work very long either.
Because of the way the jacket fits, the "storm hood" isn't really that functional. If you are wearing anything on top of your head, or have long hair, you will still have to unzip your jacket in order to put the hood up, which kind of defeats the purpose. Then, because of the way the hood is shaped, it is impossible to get it tightened correctly so it doesn't keep flying down when you're in...a storm (or even moderately windy weather). Having a more traditional integrated hood would be lighter and better.
I have also noticed patchy areas on my arms and chest where even though it is a 3 layer shell, the water can come through at parts where there are seams. I have not had this issue with other shells, except when the membrane started failing, not in a new jacket. The overall construction appears much lower quality than other shells I have had from Arcteryx or any other brand.
There are other things I think you should know but I have to follow review guidelines so I won't. This jacket should be and easily could be much better for how much it costs.

Hi Patty, we appreciate your review. We are sorry to hear about the issues with your Beta AR Jacket. We're grateful for your feedback and will ensure it reaches our design team. The staining that can be seen at the collar of the jacket is a sign of contamination build-up (sweat, oils, etc.). Contamination build-up is not the result of a manufacturing issue but with regular care, this issue can be delayed significantly, extending the product’s lifespan and giving you many more years of adventure with it. To find out how and when to wash your GORE-TEX gear, we recommend watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GEHKQjIByY&t=3s

Great shell, but loose waist
11 months ago
I bought this a month ago and I am a big fan of the drop hood design. The fit around the chest and shoulders is a little tight but not uncomfortable. Overall a great product.
I have a zeta AR model and I noticed one thing missing was the waist tightening straps. I have a wider chest but narrower waist (athletic type would be best descrition) and wish the Beta Ar had the waist tightening system to better fit the midsection of the shell to my body. It's not a big concern but I worry that the sides catch on something since it is wider than my waist.

What's with the sleeves?
11 months ago
I wanted to replace my old Theta AR with a new Beta AR. But the sleeves are just way too long. This has never been an issue with any brand of jacket I have ever purchased. So, I returned it.
I notice the women's Beta AR has similar measurements to the men's, but with shorter sleeves. I plan to go try on a woman's jacket to see if the sleeves are manageable and the other dimensions are not problematic.

Cheap material
11 months ago
I was numb to receive my jacket, replacing my last Arc’teryx BETA AR. It was not the same quality material as the last jackets that had been replaced over the years. If possible, I would like someone to get back to me to sort this out. I really love the material the other ones were made from. This one feels cheap. Thank you for taking the time and taking care of a loyal customer.
Cheers

Bought this jacket a few weeks ago and it fits so well along with keeping the wind and rain out. The more you wear it the better it seems to fit to your body. Only issue I have is the arms seem to be a touch too long, even for someone with slightly longer arms than most!
Recommend this jacket for most things but perfect for hiking.

Mauvais service après vente
a year ago
Je suis énormement décu du service après vente d'arcteryx. J'achetais presque tous mes
articles de plein air arcteryx et c'est maintenant fini!!!
j'ai acheté une veste Beta AR grandeur L en 2022.Je me suis commandé une seconde veste Beta AR L en fin 2023, car ma première c'est fendue. Il y a quelque semaine, à l'arrivé du printemps, je mets ma nouvelle veste et je constate que les grandeurs ont changé et que les manches de celle-ci sont beaucoup plus grande. Je prend des photos des 2 vestes Beta Ar que j'envoie à Artcteryx et ceux ci ne veule rien faire puisque mon délais de 30 jours est terminé. Je leur renvoie
donc ma veste à mes frais qu'il la mesure et leur verdict ne change pas. On me propose de me la racheter pour 30% du prix. Le service à la clientèle est aucunement empathique et très rigide sur leur politique. Je suis très deçu et ne rachèterai plus ici. Il a trop de d’autre bonne marque qui respect leur clientèle.

Awesome quality - great customer service

Bought the jacket almost 10 years ago, still my go to shell for rain, mountain biking, trekking to skiing. 5 years ago the heat-sealed seams started to split apart. I asked customer service what could be done, they made me send the jacket to their lab in Switzerland and re-stitched the whole jacket .. for free!! Unbelievable quality, supreme customer service. I have now atoms, beta, gammas and other gear- super happy.

Excellent jacket. Need improvement
a year ago
I bought this jacket today. First day it launched the spring season.
And it’s a lovely jacket. Classic design beautiful colours. Tons of colours. I love it
BUT why the inconsistency within design.
I only multiple gear from your guys.
The older gears right up till earlier 2023
They have a common flaw. Non stitched hem. Where the bottom of the jacket would come apart as the jacket got old.
That wasn’t really a big problem, but there is a lot of complaints.
I can see the you guys try to solve the issue. You put the new stitched hem design in the newer gear. And it’s awesome.
Beta lightweight, Sabre SV. Just to name a few gears that have this design.
But WHY does the beta AR not get it. It is one of the most iconic jacket from you guys. But you guys don’t feel the need to make this gear more long lasting?
there is so much talk about sustainability. If this jacket failed within the new few years. With your awesome warranty it probably will get replaced. But why let it get to that point?
please please please take this into the future design

Excellent Fit
a year ago
I’m very impressed with the cut and fit of this jacket. The manufacturer thought creatively regarding the range of movement required for various outdoor sports. The underarm gussets and extra sleeve length work well for overhead reaching while wearing a pack or harness. Of course the Goretex Pro provides excellent protection from the elements while remaining very breathable. Combined with the underarm vents, comfort on the move is easy to achieve. I’m certainly glad that I chose the BETA AR with the independent stand collar and fully adjustable hood. Whether wearing a helmet or not, you can always adjust the hood for the perfect fit.
Thanks Arc’teryx

Too many stains
a year ago
I am quite disappointed at the quality of this newly bought red Beta AR. You can see stains everywhere. A lot of white stains on the collars make me feel sick. There are also many unknown white stains on the front of the jacket. There are black stains on both cuffs. It seems like it has been worn by someone else before and got it returned. It simply can't be a new jacket. I have been a dedicated fan of Arcteryx. But I hope Arcteryx can really improve the quality of their product. Every time I return a jacket, I have to wait for nobody knows how long until it's been restocked. I don't want to waste so much time and energy getting sick of the product quality and return the item again and again.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Hallo, ich wollte Fragen welche Partien der Beta Ar mit 80d Verstärkt sein sollen? Im Gegensatz zu meiner alten Beta Ar aus 2017 konnte man die Verstärkung an Schulter und Ellenbogen sehen und vor allem das dickere Material spüren. Bei der Aktuellen Beta Ar fühlt sich das Material an der Gesamten Jacke gleich an.

Perfect Jacket
a year ago
I bought this to replace a 20ish year old Beta LT jacket...could not be happier. Bit lighter than the ARs I have had in the past and is perfect for what I needed it for...around town and hiking rain protection. Plus, it has that Arc'Teryx look which fits great. 5' 10", 190lbs, athletic build, Large fits perfect with some layering room to spare.

Excellent Jacket
a year ago
I have had this jacket for almost 10 years and am looking at replacing it with a new one. It is a great 3 season jacket and layers very nicely for winter.
I love the collar. This is the only jacket of this quality I have seen with this type of collar.
The only downside is are the pockets. They are not plentiful to start off with and the inside pocket is too small to fit my iPhone Pro Max. 🙁
Even with this I will buy another.

Versatile Shell
a year ago
Recently bought this jacket and used it for the first time on a trip to Park City, Utah. I wanted a versatile shell that I could use for skiing, snowmobiling, and anything else I needed it for. This jacket worked great. Took plenty of falls on the slopes and had zero issue. The fabric is a good thickness and very durable. I would recommend this as a good all around shell. I’m 275 lb and bought an XXL. Wasn’t oversized but gave a good amount of room for layering underneath.
