Arc'teryx Sigma AR Jacket - Men's
Arc’teryx takes their own approach to technical outerwear and climbing gear. Instead of imitating existing designs, Arc’teryx innovates with their own solutions. Narrow seam taping, laminated pockets, welding instead of sewing, and revolutionary WaterTight zippers are hallmarks of this Canadian company. Their distinctive designs won’t be found on the backs of every rock-jock or snow-bro, only on those adventurers that know true quality when they see it.

Description of Arc'teryx Sigma AR Jacket - Men's:
The Arc'teryx Sigma AR Jacket is a four-season softshell designed for impressive adaptability in alpine environments. There's nothing like experiencing the breathability and freedom of movement inherent to this versatile jacket. For cold, dry climates, wear the Sigma AR as a weather protecting outer layer; when the weather turns wet and very cold, use the Sigma AR as a midlayer. A soft brushed lined collar keeps your chin from chafing, and two hand pockets warm your mitts. Legendary Arc'teryx details, from-molded zipper garages, to a durable and water-resistant finish, insure that the Sigma AR Jacket is ready for inbounds skiing or backcountry boarding. *Available for US shipment only.

Bottom Line: The Arc'teryx Sigma AR Jacket shifts gears from weather-resistant shell to warm midlayer as your day on the snow progresses

My impression is that the Sigma AR is not as warm as descriptions might give impressions of - but that might be due to me misunderstanding these descriptions. Living in the most nothern part in Norway I was in need of a softshell suited for warmth. Still, it is an excellent softshell by any standard, and together with another fleece layering it will also work for temperatures down to -30 C. Particularly, I like the athletic trim and the underarm venting. This makes it a all-purpose shoftshell. For my purpose I would like a solution that could make the collar a bit more snugfit when in cold temperatures. When it comes to stretch-ability the Sigma AR is not as good as the Gamma SV. But these things should not take away the fact that this is a top softshell. There are a lot of excellent functional small-detail solutions. If you don't think price is too relevant I will highly recommend this one!

In Addition... a note on durability   10-30-07
Anonymous: rank
I have owned this jacket for about a year now, and I completely agree with the other reviews. Other than that you need to prepare to add a little insulation when it gets really cold, the only thing I would like to add is how tough the jacket is. I would consider myself a pretty active person, both in the outdoors and in the city. I ride a long board or a bike on a daily basics and have taken some pretty good spills while wearing this jacket. After some of these spills, I have fully expected to stand up and find a gaping hole in the jacket, from where I just slid across the pavement. Rather, every time, some how, this jacket seems to hold up. The durability of this jacket is unbeatable.

Excellent Four Season Softshell   01-07-06
Ben Smukler (3): rank
I purchased the Sigma AR jacket to compare with the Patagonia Core Skin jacket. The Sigma uses Gore-Tex fabrics, while the Core Skin uses Polartec. The main differences are that the Patagonia jacket has more coverage in the back and also fits more closely. It has gusseted sleeves, and is a bit more stretchy than the Arc'teryx jacket, making it easier to add fleece or other thick layers underneath. (You can do the same with the Sigma; it is just a tighter fit.) On the other hand, the Sigma is a true year-round jacket, while the Patagonia Core Skin would be overkill in anything but cold or almost cold conditions. Both jackets breathe well. The Sigma has pit zips, and the Core Skin vents through the hand pockets. In my experience, the Core Skin breaths so well that you don't really need the vents in most circumstances. Bottom line: two great products, with slightly different approaches to cold-weather protection.
