Fabric: Gore Tex Paclite

This is a relatively new jacket and I have only used it once so here goes: It seems to work really well when you lend it to a really cute girl and walk along the beach with her. The Wasabi color really pops out in pictures and it seems to hold sea shells and rocks (that eventually fade in color) really well. It also repels that sea water smell that comes with putting such items in your pockets! I also found that wearing it yourself next to the really cute girl makes you look a lot better too. All that to say make sure you buy a great color and bring it with you if you think you will be hanging out with a top-notch woman!

Okay, here's something technical: I have several other Arc'teryx jackets and they all rock, so I assume this one will as well when I need it to perform. It's very light so it's perfect for summer.
