Arc'teryx: Men's Stingray Jacket - Altrec.com Product Description:

In years past skiing and climbing enthusiasts didn't readily associate any sort of GORE-TEX® fabric with anything but waterproof outerwear, but this Arc'teryx Stingray Jacket will certainly change old notions. It's made with a new softer and quieter GORE-TEX® Soft Shell Low Loft fabric that breathes better than previous GORE-TEX® membranes but doesn't compromise the waterproof protection. Unlike the tapered cut on the Women's Stingray Jacket, the Men's Stingray Jacket has a relaxed cut to maximize your middle layering potential. The Stingray is primarily oriented for big mountain resort adventures and features extras like a removable Drop Hood™ and Recco Reflectors. Laminated pit zips beneath the sleeves give you extra breathing potential for any sunny hikes up to untracked bowls. If you're considering pants, the Arc'teryx Stingray Pant is a perfect match.

Gerard Bu - 2006-11-14
One of the best shells made I have been looking for a new shell that can be worn skiing as well as cooler temperatures that was water proof looked good and wore well. There is really no comparison to the quality of Arcteryx clothing so I will concentrate on what this model offers. I tried the shells like beta, alpha and theta and the thicker shells for snow sport. I disregarded the insulated shells since they are warmer and limits their use to winter only. The hard shells like alpha, theta etc felt to thin to wear unless is used for technical reasons. This left the scorpion, the sidewinder and the stingray. The Sidewinder did not appeal to me due to the external material that it is not as appealing, in the opposite end the scorpion does not seem to have the rugged exterior that the stingray has. The stingray has a smooth yet rough exterior that it is very nice to the touch and while providing the jacted with a sense of durability. The sleeves have a velcro attachment that provides a very nice look to it, the linning is thin enough to be worn on srping and fall and ligth enough to layer for warm ski days while it provide the room to layer up for those cold skiing days. Overall is a wonderfull jacket that will provide use over the 3 seasons.

THE BEST GORE-TEX SHELL THAT ARC'TERYX OFFERS! THIS JACKET IS GREAT. I LOVE TO WEAR IT. I LIKE THE FACT THAT WHEN I WEAR IT DURING WINDY WEATHER, THE WIND DOESN'T ADVERSELY AFFECT MY BODY; THIS JACKET KEEPS ME WARM. HAS ENOUGH POCKETS--4-TO STORE ANYTHING YOU WISH. THE TWO HANDWARMER POCKETS ARE HUGE, AND THE POCKET ON THE LEFT SLEEVE IS CONVENIENT AS WELL. THE CINCH CORDS DO THERE JOB, AND THE CINCH CORD ON THE HOOD ALLOWS YOU TO TIGHTEN THE HOOD AS YOU SO DESIRE. I JUST LOVE THIS JACKET--OH AND IF YOU CAN, GET THE GUNMETAL COLOR, I LOOKS GREAT. I JUST LOVE THIS JACKET, I DON'T THINK I WILL BUY ANOTHER JACKET AS LONG AS I LIVE. THE JACKET IS SOMEWHAT PRICY, BUT IF YOU CAN SHOP AROUND FOR A CHEAPER, PRICE AND THEN COME BACK TO ALTREC; THEY HAVE THE BEST PRICE MATCH POLICY AROUND!
