User Review: Arc'teryx Men's Theta AR Jacket

Rating: rated 4.5 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $200 cdn (used)

Putting on this jacket feels like putting on a suit of armor--in a good way. The jacket is strong and well made. Enough has been said about this jacket here, so I'll just touch on a few points.

If you're trying to decided between this jacket and the Alpha SV, try them on. I chose this jacket because I loved the fit. The Alpha SV was cut too short at the hip for my liking. I am 6'3", 190, and my athletic build fits perfectly into a large.

Beware of fake Theta AR's being sold on e-bay. They are definitely out there.

Ask yourself, am I really willing to pay full price for this jacket? Unless you're really rolling in it, I'd think twice. It's nice, but it's just a shell.
