"I take it snowboarding and around town in the rain.

I love this jacket and can't wait to buy a Sidewinder SV.

The hood is awesome because it zips into the collar.

Super lightweight, super breathable, super waterproof, very durable, simply the best jackets in the world."

"What can I say, this has been my best friend since I got it. I was lucky and got it dirt cheap in 2003 since it was the last one they had in. I am a video producer for extreme sports and I take it rock climbing, ice climbing, mountaineering, skiing/snowboarding, kiteboarding (ski/snowboard), hiking, and of course, around town."

"As advertised the jacket was warm and dry:) A great travel companion.
However after one year of wear the waterproof zips, especially the pit zips, started to delaminate (small threads). Sent back to the Arc'Teryx folks and after 3. 5 months (and many heated calls) got the jacket back "repaired" but with the same delaminations ?

Sooo back the jacket goes."

"This jacket lists for over $400 US, I paid $230. Great jacket for skiing and most anything outdoors where rain or wet conditions exsist. The hood fits great, overall fit and finish are at least as good as anything out there, better in most cases. Preformance is not to be beaten."

"This is a very breathable, dry jacket. I wore it in constant downpours while hiking around in Alaska and stayed completely dry. I really like the adjustability of the hood and the ability to store it when you don't need it. It is also extremely light for the amount of protection it provides"

"Upon first viewing, this jacket is marvelous. In use, it only gets better! It simply looks better than other mountaineering shells, even the "good" ones like the Ethereal et al. The cut is wonderful, roomy in areas that need it, fitted in the other places."

"This jacket is brilliant. I don't know how Arc'teryx came up with the waterproof zippers but, having tested them in a heavy downpour, I can attest to their reliability. And, as they're no longer needed, it's amazing how much the absence of storm flaps improves both the jacket weight (a little over a pound) and the accessibility of pockets and pit zips."
