Arc’teryx Men’s Alpha LT Jacket: Unbiased Review
| PRODUCT REPORT |
The Arc’teryx Men’s Alpha LT Jacket is built for fast alpine adventures, with a price to match its excellent features.
It is durable, dependable, and lightweight, weighting in at just 12.9oz, yet it is completely waterproof.
Its breathability is ensured by the Gore-Tex Pro material used for construction and it also provides complete storm proof protection, with the new redesigned Speed Hood.
The Gore-Tex Pro may be light but is just as waterproof and much more breathable than its heavyweight counterparts.
The zippers are also water tight and the Arcteryx HemLock keeps your jacket under your harness.
Arc’teryx offers a lifetime warranty.

The jacket is completely water and wind proof, and the hood is one of the best around. Users also love the red version of the jacket, saying the color looks really good.
Arc’teryx clothing is made for athletic builds, as users have pointed out, and should be tried on first, before purchasing to ensure a perfect fit.
