Description of Mountain Hardwear Beryllium Jacket - Men's:
The Mountain Hardwear Men's Beryllium Jacket provides you with the articulated cut, waterproof fabric, and wicking properties you need for a multi-pitch ice climb. Mountain Hardwear laminated this extremely durable, lightweight alpine jacket with Gore-Tex Pro Shell and seam-taped it for complete waterproofness. The Micro-Grid Backer wicks moisture on that gnarly second pitch, and the micro chamois-lined collar eliminates chin irritation. When you reach a belay station, unzip the pit vents and let off some steam. The Beryllium Jacket's hand pockets stay accessible when you wear a harness, and an inner water bottle pocket keeps you hydrated on the ascent. The single-pull hood cord quickly seals out cold while your other hand stays on your ice tools.

Bottom Line: Cross glaciers and climb ice falls in the Mountain Hardwear Men's Beryllium Jacket.

Real McCoy   06-11-07

This hardshell by Mountain Hardwear actually delivers. I've worn it on two different occasions in both cold and moist environments where staying dry and pushing hard were equally important. I wore it with only a base layer while hiking through Dolly Sods with six inches of snow on the ground and it breathed well without even opening the pitzips. The articulated sleeves kept the jacket from riding up, even while reaching overhead. It can cinch at the bottom of the hem or higher up to keep out cold air while working with a harness. The hood can be cinched tightly with one hand and stays put well. My body heat dries the surface completely in 15 minutes, so I wear it straight into the tent to enjoy being absolutely dry when it counts. Oh yeah, pockets everywhere.

Review update....   04-05-08

Have since added ice climbing and a 6 day Wapta Icefield traverse to this jacket's resume, and can now speak to how it performs during its intended usage: Exceptional! My early durability concerns have proven unfounded, as I have beat this thing senseless this winter, crashing into trees, catching it on crampon spikes (although not razor sharp ones), stuffing it into packs beside gouged shovel blades - it holds up. It is now a filthy brown rather than the bright orange at time of purchase (stains easily), but keeps me just as dry as ever. It dries out very quickly from body heat or when hanging in the hut/tent. The hood is beautiful - the one draw string system works fabulously, the brim stiffener actually keeps water away from your face while maintaining good visibility, and it rolls away snugly. The pockets are great, and the Micro-Grid liner is comfortable. As stated in my previous review, the only complaint is that the "roomy all-mountain cut" is not quite as roomy as expected. A fantastic piece of gear.

Great light weight - maybe not for resort skiing   02-15-08

I bought this coat being unable to find one in a retail store to try it on for fit first. After trying on similar style Arc'Teryx coats, I decided small was the size for me - but the Beryllium is cut noticeably smaller than the A'T small, especially in the sleeves. Kept the small, but could've done with a medium. This coat has a beautifully designed hood, has kept me dry and snow free in over 25 days at Whistler this winter, as well as walking the dog for hours in heavy downpour in Squamish, and sweaty, heavy touring days. The only thing I would say is if you're primarily buying this shell for resort skiing, you might want a heavier one. Gets quite chilly in wind or on the chairlift, and small cut does not allow me to wear a down layer underneat.
