Durable, pro-level protective Beta hardshell for every mountain mission.

The toughest, hardwearing jacket in the Beta family, this all-mountain hardshell gives you pro-level protection when the rain's blowing sideways on a summit push. The hybrid mix of GORE-TEX PRO ePE fabrics (extra durability in the shoulders, lighter weight in the body) will keep you keep your core bone-dry. Designed with a helmet-compatible DropHood and for easy access.

What's been updated: Updated with 100D and 80D GORE-TEX PRO ePE with DWR (Durable Water Repellent) free from intentionally added PFAS. Enhanced fabric lamination and updated cordlocks improve durability. Lightweight RECCO® reflector in hood brim provides safety and searchability in emergency situations. New patterning minimizes fabric waste, saving material—the equivalent of 400 jackets—in the production process.
