Alpha SV Jacket Men's

Not a single bad word about this jacket. I've used it daily (in cold weather) for 7 years and apart from a tiny bit of the colour coming off the zip pull, it still looks and works like the day i bought it. I do regularly wash and reproof it, which also helps fluff the lining material. It was a big outlay at the time, but I've had lesser coats fail miserably in the past, where this just keeps going. In that respect, I think it represents excellent value. Definitely a case of getting what you paid for.

This is the best jacket I have ever bought. After a trip to Yellowstone, my love for this dress was further strengthened.

Best weather protection for severe conditions in winter or highly rain

Perfect all round jacket. Even after 8 hours torrential rain in the Yorkshire dales I was bone dry. Very well designed jacket for back pack use and ski touring. Can’t fault it other than the arms are too long, could do with being a few inches shorter.

Très bon Jacket contre les tempêtes de neige et le reste. Manteau de PRO

Best in class! I bought my Alpha SV from Monod's in Banff and I have taken it all over the Rockies, and into the Alps. When the weather moves in and you want to be protected, this is the jacket for you.

Bonjour je suis extrêmement déçu d Arc’teryx, j ai porté cette veste une dizaine de fois que j ai du renvoyer car le bouton de la capuche se décollait, 40€ pour la renvoyer en suisse pour la réparer pour au final faire des trous dans la capuche , très déçu mais soite j ai accepté la réparation, je reviens d une randonnée légère ou il a plus pendant 2h finement, on ne parle pas la d une tempête mais de pluie légère, et la veste étais mouillé ainsi que mon pull était trempé, je regrette tellement d avoir mis autant d argent dans cette veste qui est finalement pire que toute les vestes connu auparavant.

Use it on long days in the mouyain. Extreme protection.

The best of the best when it comes to shell jackets

Best jacket I’ve ever owned. My go to for PNW storm boarding

Mountain Climbing,Trail Hike, Commuting to work in Cold Weather

I’ve used the saber jacket for 5 years and it’s still doing its job and looks amazing. I bought the alpha SV jacket as a backup and a casual hiking jacket, I soon realized the the SV was stronger and had a better fit and offered me a better range of mobility while snowboarding all day. This jacket is a tank and if cared for properly will last a very long time. Well worth the money !!!!!!

What year did the jungle color come out in the Alpha SV? Great product just curious on the model year..

As person whom spends a lot of time in the outdoors exploring along all four seasons, the Alpha SV is an essential part of my kit. I have found over the years that my Alpha SV has supported and built some of my strongest memories in the mountains! From through hikes, to airy scrambles and in wet conditions, the Alpha SV has been apart of each and every one of those adventures. The 100 denier Gore-Tex Pro is built to withstand most any activity within the mountains. Not to mention, the Alpha SV looks very signature to Arc'teryx and compliments any adventurers kit perfectly!

Excellent Jacket! Arc’teryx is the best! Please make in “tall” sizes.

J'ai acheté la veste alpha SV pour sa durabilité mais il n'en est rien , prix pas du tout justifie.. au bout d'un an les coutures se decollaient , du coup j'ai envoyé la veste j'ai eu un changement de veste après maintes explications, on m'expliquait que j'avais contaminé la veste , je leur ai dis de découper d'analyser la veste , ils ont bien que c'était une anomalie, rebelote avec la nouvelle veste. .. et le bouton serre capuche a glissé dans la capuche... il faut savoir que la deuxième veste , je la mettais dans le sac par peur de l'abîmer... vous voyez à quel point on en arrive , ... je prenais ma veste softshell d'une autre marque par peur de transpirer dedans etc... je vais quand même me rapprocher de Gore Tex on peut bien voir que le produit n'est pas abîmé d'usure... sur la deuxième veste pareil cela se décollait au bout de 6 mois... et même sur la poche forfait de la manche donc c'est pas l'usure ni la transpiration... a comparer avec mon ancienne veste Millet GTX Jorasses je n'ai jamais eu ces problèmes même au bout de 5 ans .. il y a un problème sur les vestes quand même quand on voit les nombreux commentaires. ceux qui n'ont pas de problème l'utilise 2 semaines dans l'année et c'est tout ... comment on peut parler d'une durabilité...

I bought the Alpha SV jacket a few years ago and have worn it from time to time in suitable weather (heavy rain and winter hikes in Europe and Asia). However, never in extreme or harsh environmental conditions. During this time, the jacket served me well. Back in Germany, I cleaned it and found that many of the welded/glued seams had come loose, making the jacket unusable. The jacket was sent for repair via service request. According to service, repair is not possible. Instead, my jacket was offered for recycling in exchange for a 20% promotional code. Due to the bad experience, I found it difficult to choose a similar product from Arc'teryx again. For a high-priced jacket like this, I would have expected a product that is more sustainable and ease of repair.
