User Review: Arc'teryx Beta LT Jacket
|
Rating: 
Fabric: 3 ply Gore-Tex (non-XCR)
Price Paid: $250
There is a lot to like about Arc'Teryx jackets. For the drooling reviews, read elsewhere. My problem with this jacket is that the ripstop is too lightweight to be abrasion resistant. I punctured one sleeve the first time I wore it backpacking. There is another review in this section that makes the same complaint about another Arc'Teryx model. Be forewarned.
I also have a Theta LT that at least has some abrasion resistant panels along the shoulder and sleeves. The rest of it is the same paper-thin ripstop.
BTW, when I had my Beta repaired, it went to Rainy Pass in Seattle, not to Arc'Teryx. No complaints about the patch job, but it made me wonder why this vaunted company did not perform their own repairs.
