Versatile hybrid GORE-TEX jacket performs across a range of alpine conditions.
The Alpha Jacket was previously the Alpha AR Jacket.
Description
Our most versatile Alpha – artfully designed for unforgiving environments, shifting conditions, and the realities of alpine travel. GORE-TEX PRO Most Rugged reinforces high-wear areas, while ultralight, highly abrasion-resistant GORE-TEX with Hadron® face fabric zones shed grams and improve breathability. The StormHood™ delivers protection without impacting vision, a RECCO® reflector can aid search and rescue, and pit zippers add ventilation.
Customer service tips: This product contains PFAS chemicals, but is exempt from the January 2025 legislative deadline. Arc’teryx is guided by science and committed to transitioning to PFAS-free chemistry across our line over the coming years.
