ArcTeryx Alpha SV Jacket Mens
Price:
$498.95
- $499.00
Description from Backcountry.com :
The Arc'teryx Alpha SV jacket earned the American Alpine Institute Guide's
Choice award, for being a personal storm fortress. You'll appreciate it too when
you're high in the mountains and on mother nature's bad side. Contrasting body
panels, of Gore-Tex, put more durable fabrics in high wear areas while
surrounding your torso in breathability. Welded seams with Tiny Gore taping make
the Alpha SV impregnable to both wind and water. The elimination of storm flaps
and bulky seams eliminates excess weight and makes this fowl weather friend
easily stowed. The new Vislon WaterTight zip is more pliable, weather resistant,
and user friendly than previous closures. High, harness-friendly pockets have
WaterTight zips to keep electronics, tools, or chow, dry and in close reach.
Designed for mountaineering, all pockets and vents are positioned to be accessed
while wearing a pack. Gusseted no-lift underarms are destined for summit bids as
they let the Alpha SV complete mobility as you reach ever higher.
Bottom Line: This is the Alpha male of the mountaineering pack.
