Versatile hybrid GORE-TEX jacket performs across a range of alpine conditions. *The Alpha Jacket was previously the Alpha AR Jacket.


 

 

Lightweight, durable and extremely versatile shell jacket with GORE-TEX®Pro from Arc'teryx, a solid choice for climbers and mountain sports enthusiasts looking for an all-round shell that can be used across the full spectrum of high mountain conditions. Extreme weather, changing terrain, movement and rest – that's the reality of the high mountains. Alpha is a highly versatile shell jacket that can handle it all. Two types of GORE-TEX PRO in the form of Most Rugged and Hadron™ are combined to provide outstanding durability, breathability and protection. Upgraded with zones of Hadron™ LCP material to reduce weight and improve breathability. 

Alpha has a well-thought-out design with high mountain conditions in mind. Among other things, the pockets are placed high up with a transverse design so that they are easily accessible regardless of whether you are using a pack or a climbing harness. The full-coverage, helmet-compatible StormHood™ hood can be tightened tightly, moves with the head and provides excellent side visibility. The Cohaesive™ edge adjustments work like Hemlock™ to prevent the jacket from slipping up under the climbing harness. 

Alpha is the former Alpha AR from Arc'teryx.
