- My Arc’teryx jackets are falling apart. And yours? - Mountain Project
1) Seven years is a long time to own and rely on a technical garment Its a good life and arcteryx will likely work with you to get you a new one that will probably last longer without paying full price 2) A high end technical outdoor piece is like anything else that is expensive that you might buy to last a long time, like a leather jacket
- Arcteryx vs Misty Mountain Cadillac vs - Mountain Project
Seems like the misty is in fact quite a bit more comfortable than the arcteryx? My use case will be back to back longer aid climbing days I typically start to get lower back pain after a 10-20 hour day with a lot of harness time Edit: Just looking for something 1 step up from the arcteryx without going full bulky heavy big wall
- Fake Arcteryx on eBay (Gamma Lt) - Mountain Project
Just wanted to show the obvious signs that your new Arcteryx garment from eBay is fake First thing I noticed was the cuffs on the garment had zero stretch, so little that it wouldn't open enough to put my hand with a light glove through
- Mammut Broad Peak PRO vs. Arcteryx Cerium vs. Mammut Eigerjoch Advanced IN
I purchased a new down jacket last season and was between Mammut broad peak pro, Arcteryx cerium LT hoody, and Rab electron and ended up going for the Rab The cut was better for me (less boxy than the Mammut and a little longer than the Arcteryx) I've got a few pieces from Rab and personally I think they meet or exceed Arcteryx
- Why is Arcteryx so expensive? - Mountain Project
It’s hard to answer this question with individual anecdotes that you are going to get Ideally, if you could poll a large number of people who had an arcteryx jacket, vs equivalent OR or Patagonia jacket, and determined that the arcteryx group held on to their jacket 50% longer, before needing replacement that would justify the price
- Arc Teryx Atom lt vs Proton lt - Mountain Project
Arcteryx claim that the fleece panels on the sides help with ventilation, but I've found that if you're working hard enough to sweat, you'll be sweating with or without the panels Honestly, all those fleece panels ever do is let wind through
- Washing Arcteryx Atom LT - Mountain Project
Arcteryx recommends Grangers but Nikwax is pretty much the same thing Definitely use a tech wash or a basic soap (NOT detergent) I like to do an extra rinse, and then putting it on low heat in the dryer helps get back the DWR for a bit I think Arcteryx has care instructions on their website for the Atom
- Patagonia gt; Arcteryx - Mountain Project
Arcteryx harnesses are the best on the market, and their backpacks are also really well made Patagonia’s warranty and repair programs are some of the best in the industry, but I do agree that their sizing can be weird
