Beta Jacket Men's

Great shell but it’s definitely expensive. Haven’t put it to use yet so can’t speak to the goretex but it looks great. I’m 5’8 and I got the medium. A little big but I figure rain jackets should be bigger so you can layer underneath.

Main jacket 'just in case rains' which I use to pack on any kind of trip (business, mtb, trekking, city). Really curious to see how does it perform without the under arm zips, less potential breaking points, but less breathability.

Nice Jacket, not only for the mountain. For everyday it‘s possible too.

Bought it for work actually…needed wind and water protection while doing my gig…originally got a size too large (XL vs L) returned and repurchased all within 5 Biz days? So smooth. Thanks all.

I was very hesitant to spend 500 dollars on a rain jacket, however I was very pleasantly surprised with this purchase. This jacket fits very well and is versatile. I am 6'1" 150lbs so I'm relatively slim, but this jacket fits if you feel chilly and decide to wear a big bulky hoodie. The waterproofing is perfect as advertised, and I'm looking forward to giving it more use when I'm on the pacific coast. Since purchasing, I put the exclusive grand opening iron on patch to the right shoulder, which looks pretty badass in my opinion. 10/10 would recommend for those interested

8 hours paddling in Yukon during a torrential downpour. At the end of the day I was the only person with dry clothes. I was wearing a hat and easily rolled the hood inside to prevent pooling. The large side pockets are easily accessible to the point I could access them without taking off my PFD. Cuffs closed easily and prevented any rain from going into my sleeves. Barely sweat despite working to paddle, wearing my PFD, and 20 degree temperature. Literally shook it dry after the fact. Best rain jacket I've ever owned.

Read this if you want a sort of "long term" review. (4 months) Excellent improvement in comfort, as the new backing in the jacket is way better than old beta. I can see why some are not satisfied with the DWR treatment, as its not as effective as the older PFAS DWR treatment. But after the first time i treated with DWR it beaded water perfectly. So as is with any changes its not going to be the same. But the improvements on the fabric itself, it's thinner, stronger and softer. It completely makes up for the need to reproof the DWR more often.

I’m a 20+ year user of Arc’teryx jackets. For skiing, sailing, climbing and bike packing I’ll never use anything else. Reliable and Arc’teryx honors there pledge of looking after their customers if anything goes wrong. Thank you for my replacement jacket after my other one served me 18 hard years.

Bought this jacket about a month ago for my first ever hiking in the swedish mountains. I was hyped buying my first ever gore-tex. The jacket itself is good, i love the fitting, the beautiful color and the light material but it had one downside, the DWR. When the rain came my jacket got soaked and didnt repel any water at all on some spots which made me dissapointed (even through i was still dry) because first time using it and DWR not working was not a good sign for me. Overall good jacket and horrible DWR.

Bought this a couple months ago and wore it while raining but noticed some spots that's not waterproof.

Have only had it a couple weeks but so far so good. Extremely impressed with lightness of the fabric and breathability. I love the cut of the jacket as well. My only wish is that it had pit zips, but I can make do without.

L'article est esthetique et tres efficace contre la pluie avec des possibilités de resserrer et retrousser la veste. Cette veste est idéal pour des randonnées sur des lieux humides, ou simplement à porter pour le lifestyle.

After not even 2 skiing seasons the zipper broke. I had to pay for the repair, although Arcteryx didn‘t deliver what it promises. Disappointed by the quality of the jacket and the support.

Great product, especially when it is windy. I would recommend this jacket

Easy and well structured. Small pack size and always with you on a ski tour. I think the color Euphoria is just really cool!

This is not a review about the jacket - I've owned it for 7 years (I guess it was called Beta SL Hybrid Jacket then), and it was the best jacket I've ever owned. I contacted the support team because I noticed that the seams were starting delaminate, which after 7 years of use, I was not surprised about. I just wanted to know how to repair them myself, or if they'd repair it for me. Instead, they sent me a gift card to cover the entire amount (tax, shipping) for me to purchase a brand new Beta Jacket. I was shocked that Arc'Teryx is willing to stand behind their product after 7 years of usage! Their products are a bit expensive - I think we all know that - but after this experience, why would I consider any other brand? THANK YOU!

Firstly I’m 6”2 and weigh 95kg and have a slim build. I purchased the atom hoody LT before I purchased this beta jacket. I got the atom online in a large and it fit me perfectly. I’d heard mixed reviews about the sizing of the beta jacket so went in store to try it on and found the medium fit me best so it’s best to go in store if you have one and try on. In terms of quality, the beta jacket is great and would highly recommend. It is also very breathable so keeps you cool in warm weather and also keeps you warm in cold weather too! I also had a small problem with my atom hoody which was sorted so quickly by arc’teryx so thank you so much!

The Beta ePE Jacket is great value. The increased 80D face fabric makes the jacket feel much more durable than the prior version. I find that the weight of this jacket is a perfect balance of not being too heavy, but not too light. A great option for those who want just a simple city rain shell with all-mountain capabilities. Sometimes I find the sound level from the jacket rubbing against itself when walking to be louder than normal, but it is definitely manageable!

J'ai acheté une taille L, je mesure 193 cm pour 85 kg, niveau qualité rien à dire c'est excellent. Par contre même si ce n'est pas gênant la longueur des manches est trop grande à mon gout. La veste est aussi bruyante à cause de la matière.

This was my first Arc'teryx shell jacket. Was super excited, because I have several other products (Atom Lt Hoody, Guide pants etc.), which have been excellent in both my mountaineering and day-to-day life. However, this product and experience has been totally different, and not in a good way. For me the Arc'teryx shell jackets were the pinnacle of water resistant outer clothing, and when I got this jacket I was kind of waiting for some rainy days to try it out. Boy was I disappointed. The very first time in a slight drizzle, the jacket got totally soaked in about 10-15 minutes of walking. I'm not sure is this an Arc'teryx issue or a Gore-Tex ePE issue, but this is totally unacceptable for a jacket of this price. Keep in mind that the jacket had been used for less than ten times in normal conditions, just walking to work or similar lightweight use without rain or snow fall. For the water resistance part of it, this is a total bummer, and I'd give this jacket 0/5. A few pros: Jacket looks extremely nice, the membrane feels pretty durable (although, I haven't yet used it for anything else than basic walking), and it is extremely light & packs up small. If you want a water resistant jacket, do not buy this. I'm regretting this purchase.

My last Beta jacket lasted almost 20 years. The glue on the seams started to fail which seems to be an ongoing issue with them but thankfully the GoreTex remained usable. Nonetheless I bought a new one knowing that regardless of the price tag over time it would prove to be a bargain.

At last, a waterproof jacket that delivers on its promise to keep you dry. Every time I wear it, I'm amazed by its ability to keep me dry, no matter how heavy the rain.

Super veste , dommage que les scratch aux manches et que le serrage a l’arrière de la capuche se découd pour le prix de la veste . J’aime beaucoup cette marque , l’utilise en outdoor et suis très déçu
