Seymour · Accepted Answer

Hi there, thanks for reaching out. At this time, we do not have the weight for the Alpha Jacket in size L. That said, we do have the weight for it in a size M, which is 301g. We hope this helps!

Question 3

The current revised fabric: is it 50D or 40D nylon, and are there panels made of 20D? I'm asking because the details on the product page are inconsistent.

Seymour · Accepted Answer

Hi Moni, thanks for reaching out. The Alpha Jacket is made with 20D Hadron™ on the body, and the upper shoulder, sleeves, and hood are made with 50D Hadron™. We hope this helps!

Question 4

Quelle est la longueur du dos en taille XXS ? Pouvez-vous préciser comment est faite la mesure pour éviter toute ambiguïté. Je mesure 1m50 et je crains que la veste ne soit trop longue.

River, Arc'teryx Guest Services · Accepted Answer

Bonjour Aude, la longueur du dos pour la Veste Alpha en taille XXS est de 66,5 cm, et nous comprenons tout à fait votre souci que la veste puisse être trop longue pour votre taille. Pour éviter toute ambiguïté, notre mesure est prise au centre du dos, en partant de la couture située à la base du cou, là où la capuche est attachée, jusqu’au bas complet de la veste. Nous esperons que cela vous aidera.

Question 5

if i have a beta ar but i wanna switch to a storm hood jacket and the alpha ar provides it, are they similar, im using for skiing

Luna · Accepted Answer

Hi Janica, we are excited to hear about your interest in our Alpha line. Just to clarify, we don’t currently offer an Alpha AR Jacket, but we do have the Alpha Jacket. In comparison with the Beta AR Jacket, it features our helmet‑compatible DropHood™, while the Alpha Jacket uses the helmet‑compatible StormHood™, both designed to deliver exceptional protection and visibility in harsh alpine conditions. The Alpha Jacket is optimized for climbing and alpine expeditions with harness‑friendly chest pockets and lighter Hadron® fabric, while the Beta AR is built for versatile durability across a range of activities. Both use 3L GORE‑TEX PRO for outstanding weather protection, but if you’re looking for a jacket specifically for skiing, our Sentinel and Rush lines combine the StormHood™ with ski‑focused features like powder skirts and pocket layouts tailored for resort and backcountry performance.

Question 6

Is this jacket using the C0 DWR or what is it?

River · Accepted Answer

Hello Chrisk, the Alpha Jacket is treated with C6 DWR. This product contains PFAS chemicals, but is exempt from the January 2025 legislative deadline. Arc’teryx is guided by science and committed to transitioning to PFAS-free chemistry across our line over the coming years.

Question 7

Was ist die Wassersäule der Jacke?

Sophie · Accepted Answer

Hallo und danke für deine Frage! Die Alpha Jacke hat eine Wassersäule von 28 000 mm. Unsere GORE-TEX Produkte erreichen alle diesen Wert. Wir hoffen, das hilft dir weiter!
