Like the energizer bunny, its just keeps on ticking. My jacket is over 6 years old and still performs as well as when new. I thought about retiring it this year, and took it in to compare with a brand new one, and there was hardly any difference. Will just have to keep it longer.

Sleek and Stylish Workhorse

6 years ago
As someone who travels abroad frequently, I found this jacket to be the perfect companion. Whether I am stuck in a monsoon in SE Asia, in the jungles of South America, or in an urban city environment, this jacket will do the job. At first I was extremely skeptical to invest so much in a shell... However, within no time, I had zero regrets as I realized this jacket is built to last. No matter where I travel, this jacket ALWAYS comes with me; it rolls up very compactly and easily fits in my messenger bag (Check out the Arc'teryx LEAF Courier bag if you're in "that" market...). ;)

Best GoreTex jacket I have owned

6 years ago
I spent a lot of time in this jacket this year, including 1 canoe trip in the Yukon and 2 trips in Northern Ontario. It rolls up nice and compact and is very comfortable to wear. The hood is really well designed - I usually find a hood to be a pain but it was no problem to paddle and portage when it was on. In spite of the heavy usage, there does not seem to be any sign of wear.

Great all around shell jacket

6 years ago
I own four goretex jackets and this is the one I like most. It is great for all round use and the material feels super durable as Arcteryx always is. What I like most is the collar design on this piece. It separates from the hood so I can always zip it all the way up to block wind with or without putting the hood on, which is nice as I don’t always want to use the hood. And it looks better this way to me, too. Another great product from Arc’teryx!

Yes, I recommend this product.

My first Arcteryx jacket bought as a replacement due to the demise of a trusty old but now worn out Rab Event jacket. I had to breathe deeply as I shelled out a fortune for the updated 2018 Beta AR jacket in a smart Tui colour. I invested the time to try out a number of competitors jackets but did not think they came anywhere close to the Beta in terms of well thought out design, fit and finish. The Beta just appeared to be “better” in every department. I first tried out my new jacket hill walking for around 2 hours in a steady downpour with humidity at 90% and temperature around 16-18c. Under the jacket I only wore a long sleeved baselayer. After around 30 minutes exertion I started to become quite hot and sweaty and had to partially open the pit zips which immediately made things more comfortable. As an experiment I had placed a paper tissue inside each pocket to investigate if they became wet. At the end of the walk the tissues in the outer pockets remained bone dry and the one in the internal chest pocket had become a little damp I presume from the sweat and humidity building up inside the jacket. Needless to say I and my baselayer remained bone dry which is exactly why I shelled out so much for this jacket. I have subsequently worn the Beta AR for walking the dog in much cooler weather being happy that it was roomy enough to accommodate a warm light down jacket. I felt very comfortable and movement was still pretty much unrestricted due to the excellent cut and fit. The various volume adjusters around body and hood all work brilliantly as do the excellent zips. I look forward to taking it to northern Nepal next month to use as a wind proof layer over a down jacket and to put it through it’s paces with some tougher Alpine tests next summer. hoping that the material will stand up well to abrasion. All in all it’s quite a hefty price to pay to remain reasonably comfortable in hostile conditions but it’s plain to see that it’s probably a price worth paying in comparison to the majority of existing similar products. I just hope I don’t break it!

The durability is not worth the buck

6 years ago
I've had three Beta jackets and they all failed after some years of moderate use, I'm not a mountaineer but used them for the rainy days and some weeks of skiing. The first one, there was an issue with the waist cord and it delaminated. It was replaced as expected. The replaced jacket also delaminated but because its front zipper also malfunctioned it was not replaced with reference to wear and tear. It was the old type of front zipper which they later changed to the more resistant version with larger teeth. So I bought one of them. After some use this also began to delaminate but also the taped seams started to slip. So when the waist cord dropped out, I returned it. After a week they returned with the message that the cuffs and the waist cord could be repaired but not the taped seams because it was due to wear and tear??? I complained but heard nothing. Then after 2+ months I received my jacket partly repaired. First of all, when you buy a jacket with that price label you would expect a better customer service process. Secondly, from the reviews here and other blog posts, these types of malfunctions seems to be a known issue. I know, nothing last forever but I have other Gore-tex shell jackets(Haglöfs) which does not have these "glue" issues. Bottom line, these are nice designed and well fitting jackets but don't expect it to be flawless.

Very good, but also very expensive.

6 years ago
Unfortunatly ?? there is no rain to be expected in Belgium any time soon. So to test this jacket I jumped into the shower. After five minutes I was still completely dry. Only when I pointed the shower head fully on the front zipper the water came trough. The jacket is also a bit noisy, but that should get less in time. I hope it will prove worth the money, because it surely is expensive.

Excellent, purpose-built piece... Not your everyday rain jacket

7 years ago
Have had this jacket for 5 years. It has gone with me as a backup to my patrol jacket in Maine winter's, SAR work in Mahoosuc and Grafton, and through every rain and snow since I bought it. The Beta AR breathes well enough to go over a wool baselayer for the early-morning skintrack. And, it has the space for multiple base and mid layers for the frigid days as well.. This is an excellent purpose-built piece. Everyone complaining about the high front needs to put a harness on and watch as the bottom of the zipper sits just above their carabiner. It's perfect. It also allows easy access to anything on your belt if you carry tools. The sleeves are very long, but when you are reaching straight up while climbing, this extra fabric proves essential, especially if you have cinched your sleeves down over gloves while ice climbing or something. Overall: I'm not sure I would go with this piece just for walking around the city in the rain, but if you plan to spend a huge sum of time in the woods, on a mountain, or on a wall, GET THIS JACKET! One update: My original piece was pretty worn in and had a zipper failure so I sent it to Arc'teryx for a zipper repair. They emailed me back after evaluating it and found that the gtx layers had delaminated. Sent me a brand new piece a week later and its working great so far. Awesome customer service as usual.

Bad Batch of GoreTex??

7 years ago
I bought two Beta A/R Jackets and two Beta A/R pants to keep at two homes. Both have failed. See pictures. I do not know if I got a bad batch of Gore Tex or what. This is $2,100 in Gore Tex and they failed identically. First jacket and pant were replaced. Thank you Arc'teryx. Second set has not reached a resolution. I suspect a design flaw on the hem. New jackets are welded over. So far the replacement is working fine.

Same thing keeps happening to my Theta AR. The cuffs where the gore tape follows the edge keeps coming undone, along with the waist draw cord and hood.. Arc’teryx sent it to Goretex in Germany for repair and on the second wear came undone again.. When I’m next in London it’s being returned.. i own lots of Arc’teryx gear and it just seems that the theta AR keeps letting the brand down... must be a dodgy patch of gore tape..

I bought this jacket years ago and had used it for a few light day hikes per year, rain days, and general use. After 5 years of steady use with regular washing I noticed that it wasn't repelling water and was starting to leak through. One of pocket zippers had separated and was left permanently open. Not what I expect for a $700 jacket, but it had seen 5 years of regular use. I emailed my situation and after sending my jacket in for Arcteryx to assess, I was told that they were going to replace since it was irreparable. I now have my new jacket in use and couldn't be happier. Although these jackets are expensive, they do preform well and the company has definitely proven to me to stand behind their product. Thanks Arcteryx!

Good news, bad news

7 years ago
I saved up and treated myself to this jacket, and I loved the performance overall. However, after maybe 5 mountain-climbing excursions, I found two spots on the inside lining that have worn almost completely through. I did not abuse the jacket at all, but I guess maybe there was some exposed velcro on my pants that was rubbing during the climb. I contacted the warranty center, but was told that this can't be fixed; instead they sent me a piece of tape to patch it. I've only had the jacket for a little over a year...have to say I now regret the purchase. Bottom line: if you decide to spend the money on this jacket, be very careful with it - the inside lining can be easily damaged. And despite what the Warranty and Repair Policy says, it will not be "repaired at a nominal charge."

After some back-and-forth, Arc'teryx repaired my jacket, and I have to say they did a great job - look almost like new. It did take a while (6 weeks or so), but I'm glad to have it back, ready for action. Thanks.

Dissapointed

Have not abused jacket and have taken care of it. I have used less expensive jackets when I know I am going to be tough on them in order to preserve the Beta. So even without full time use seams around the cuffs have become loose. Am sending back for warranty work however its super slow. I have been waiting weeks for instructions after receiving a warranty number. Company seem like most other conglomerates.

Hi there, Thank you for providing your feedback. We stand behind the quality of our products and it's unusual for the seams to give way after minimal use. We are happy to read that you sent your jacket to us for repair.   We are sorry you are disappointed with our warranty process. As each of our products is repaired by hand for quality control, our time frame does take longer than one may expect. We have a very strong warranty policy which means we try to fix as many issues with our products as possible. Due to this, we have many products being sent in to us on a daily basis which, again, increases our time line. We're working hard to get your gear back to you as soon as possible and appreciate your patience. Kindly,

Know what you're buying to avoid complaining

This is intended as an all purpose jacket. However, Archteryx is geared towards alpinism/climbing. It has a drop hem for more coverage in the back and is intended to be shorter in the front incase you want to use it with a climbing harness. It makes sense to know the features and purpose of the jacket you are buying to avoid being disappointed and complaining online about your uninformed purchase. Great jacket if you know what your buying and why!

Great jacket, long sleeves

7 years ago
The Beta AR is a great product, looks exceptionally durable and has all the features I was looking for in a shell. I purchased this product as my go-to shell for everything from skiing and hiking to walking my dog in the city. My only con is that the sleeves are very long compared to other Large Arc'teryx products I have purchased. I own a Cerium LT and Kyanite jacket, and they both fit perfectly. The Beta AR has room for layers as it is intended, but the sleeves are abnormally long.
