Description of Arc'teryx Gamma MX Jacket - Men's: |
|
The Arc'teryx Gamma MX Jacket is an award-winning addition to your outerwear arsenal. Recognized by Climbing magazine and the Polartec Apex Awards due to its all-weather versatility and enlightened design. Molded zipper garages and a welded sleeve pocket identify the Gamma MX as an advanced outerwear piece. While seamless and gusseted underarms eliminate bulk and provide unparalleled freedom for climbing or making turns. The Gamma MX Jacket is highly water resistant and extremely breathable. A dialed fit and multitasking personality have led the Gamma series to be recognized as a pioneer in softshell design. *Available for US shipment only.
Bottom Line: The Gamma MX jacket is ideal for climbing, skiing, and the nocturnal amusement that follows.

| Excellent construction, marvelous technical piece for whatever it is that you use it for. Versatile, veritably windproof, great at shedding rain and snow. I've used it for: winter biking, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, hiking the Rockies, pretty much anything you throw at it. Stretches like mad, super-comfortable athletic fit (order a size up for layering a down sweater underneath). Looks BOSS. Convenient pocket for stashing gear, food, doobie-making equipment. Lightweight, stashes easily. Very abrasion-resistant (go ahead, fall down that gully). cons: The Fabric. Not very warm, as the fleece interior pills very quickly (mine is only 2 years old and has lost all of its heat retention). Naturally, this is not intended to be an insulating piece, but what insulation it does provide did not last long in my jacket (currently being considered by Arc'teryx as warranty return). In the end, the fleece is surplus and just a weight-adder. A minor gripe: no hood-and-loop closures at the wrist to block wind even better, but at least the tapering is pretty tight. I am considering switching it for something from the Sigma line (SV , AR)? |

| This softshell is more fashion than purposeful. No doubt it is nice looking but is a very thin fabric and not that warm. It has perhaps too many pockets and lacks things like a cinch cord on the collar, pit zips and cuff adjustment tabs that competitor softshells have. Now that is made in China and not Canada it is in my opinion very overpriced at over $300. It is very much riding on the Arcteryx brand name. |

| i've skied in this jacket for the last 3 winters. i love it. i alpine ski tour in it all the time, but it's not an aerobic piece. if it's not cold i'll just wrap it around my waist or open it up. it's much warmer and more protective than i thought it would be. it does better than any other softshell i've had in the rain and wind, and after 3 seasons it's taken the beating well. what i like the most about it is the pockets. i use the chest pockets for my climbing skins. which means i don't ever need to take my backpack off at the top. i just pull the skins, jam them in the chest pockets and charge. the zipper garages and a welded sleeve pocket are great finishing touches. it's obvious someone actually thought about this jacket and i think it's a superior softshell because of it. i wouldn't be surprised if greg hill helped design it. |
