Hi there. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Beta Jacket. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with it not featuring pit zips. The Beta Jacket is designed as a versatile, everyday piece and that its the reason why some technical features like pit zips are not offered. The Beta SL Jacket, on the other hand, does feature pit zippers and while it also features a helmet-compatible Stormhood, this can be adjusted. We will, however, make sure to pass your comments to our team.

Minimalist good features

20 days ago
Beta jacket, M. 1,82m, 82kg, very good fit, light and no bulk to carry in the pack for hiking, walking, day ski-mountaineering. It would be nice if it brought a compression or carrying bag.

The color looks great

Good, but the wear resistance needs to be strengthened. I don't think this is an 80D fabric

Great for warm days on the slopes; great color

24 days ago
I took this skiing on Mt. Bachelor. Great for warm spring skiing weather . Light, breathable, and easy to pack . The color is true to the photos; even richer. I’m considering the alpha jacket in the same color for those colder or snowy days on the slope.

No pit zips

24 days ago
I don't know how a $420 (now a shocking $500, thanks to the tariffs. Let's see if the price goes back down, now that the tariffs have been "paused") "technical" jacket doesn't include pit zips, but the Beta doesn't. I was pretty disappointed and decided to return the jacket. This feels like a money grab, rather than a quality product worth the asking price. No thanks. Regarding fit: I'm a 6', 215 lbs male (the bulk isn't muscle), and the Large fit me well, if not slightly baggy in the arms. Room to move, very comfortable. The jacket's still going back.

Hi there. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Beta Jacket. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with it not featuring pit zips. The Beta Jacket is the more basic within the Beta family in terms of features and configuration, making it a versatile piece for mountain and everyday use. For an alternative with pit zips, we recommend looking at the Beta SL Jacket.

Good overall!

a month ago
Overall very great jacket, i've been using this almost daily for a couple of months now but there are a few things which are a little annoying. Firstly, the factory DWR SUCKS! Barely lasts but unfortunately i think this is a new reality because of the C0 dwr switch. Secondly, the zipper keeps snagging near the top if the hood is not on my head. Other than that, the fit is great, I have long arms so its an almost perfect with a large (I'm 6'1).

Highly versatile, durable GORE-TEX ePE shell

Beta Jacket Men's

This is our most versatile GORE-TEX shell. Made with a durable 80D face fabric and a GORE‑TEX ePE (expanded polyethylene) membrane that’s light, strong, and PFC-free, it delivers lasting waterproof, windproof, breathable protection with a reduced carbon footprint. The C-KNIT backer adds comfort, and the low-profile StormHood adjusts with a quick pull to provide coverage and maintain lines of sight. Articulation removes restriction, and an embedded RECCO reflector can aid in search emergencies.

This product is free of intentionally added PFAS.

The new ePE membrane technology is lighter and thinner, but just as strong and durable as the materials we used before.   You may notice the face fabric “wetting out” slightly faster in products with ePE membranes, but rest assured this does not affect the waterproofing of the membrane itself. If you notice the fabric wetting out faster than you’d like, simply wash the jacket and dry it to remove the oil contamination and bring the DWR back to its full power.

Beta

Versatile: high performance for diverse activities and conditions.

Trail

For technical mountain activities, durable and protective designs with a focus on freedom of movement for remote and varied conditions.

PFAS-free GORE-TEX ePE

The breakthrough GORE‑TEX ePE membrane delivers complete waterproof, breathable performance without harmful PFAS substances.

FC0 durable water repellent

FC0 DWR (Durable Water Repellent) fabric treatment beads water for improved weather protection without potentially harmful PFAS substances.

Adjustable StormHood™

The StormHood™ provides complete coverage with a unique design that adjusts to pivot with your head and maximize your field of view.

WaterTight™ zippers

The WaterTight™ zippers’ reverse-coil design creates a secure seal that weighs less than flapped closures, won’t collect snow, and minimizes snagging.

Embedded RECCO® reflector

RECCO® reflectors can help ski patrollers and mountain rescue teams utilizing RECCO® detectors more quickly locate a lost or buried person.
