Arc'teryx: Men's Theta AR Jacket (Spring 09)

If extended trips or a job as a guide place you in the outdoors no matter the weather, a tough, storm proof jacket, like the Arcteryx Theta AR for Men is a necessity. Featuring GORE-TEX®: Pro Shell, a fabric that breathes better, lasts longer, and is even lighter than anything else on the market today, and offers a greater level of comfort and packability. Decorated with features to satisfy even the most hardcore mountaineer or backcountry skier, the Arc'teryx Theta AR Jacket remains amazingly light by employing industry leading innovations, such as micro seam allowances and tiny GORE-TEX®: seam taping.

Waist and hem drawcords, articulated elbows, and no-lift gusseted underarms allow for full range of motion while blocking cold drafts and spindrift. Laminated zippers and bonded soft grommets contribute to the jacket's supple feel, and the one hand pull cords are exceedingly convenient when one hand is busy tending to a belay.
