I absolutely love all the Arcteryx line. This jacket is one more asset to my toolbox. As a police officer, I am very rough with clothes and demand that they function. I look for function first and then style. This meets ALL my needs.

 
WOW! I swear I do not work for Arcteryx.

Pros:
Breathable, Durable, Lightweight, Warm

Casual Wear, Hiking and Camping, Sports Wear, Travel, Wet Weather

I was visiting a friend & borrowed this jacket. Did not want to take it off. (so I didn't).
If she were not such a good friend it may have ended up in my suitcase!
It is so flattering, get lots of compliments.
It is lightweight, thin & extremely warm. Love all the pockets. I am still finding new ones.
I use it on hikes, out at night & at work. I work in film production, many EARLY a.m. calls, so it is perfect. Can't wait to use it skiing. I have it black and am going to order the red.
