Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
I decided to set myself up with Arcteryx Stingray pants and jacket for this last year's ski season. As expected very high quality for skiing the resorts and side country, and couldn't be better zipping the vents open to do some skinning.
I am a typical 6'0" 180lbs. The jacket size I went with was a large. This gives me plenty of layer room. If I were thinking about a spring jacket, for hiking I would definitely look into a medium, but for the winter months the large was perfect.
No restriction anywhere in the jacket...ie shoulders, arms, elbows, waist etc.
Was not too excited about seeing the visa bill come after making the purchase, but looking back would do it again. Well worth it.

Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
2 days after purchasing this we "enjoyed" windy, sleeting, cold weather. I went for a walk specifically to test this coat. It scored an A+. It kept me totally dry, surprising warm (with just a mid-weight fleece underneath) and I didn't feel the wind at all. It fits neatly but is constructed to allow freedom of movement. Sure, it's pricey vs. other coats but I find the attention to details makes it a strong value.

Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
I have had this jacket for several years- and it is one of my favorites. I use it primarily for resort skiing, and i appreciate the soft shell material, the Gore-tex, and the micro fleece backer that keeps you just a bit warmer than a straight shell. This is cut a bit roomier than a typical Arcteryx jacket- i think if I reordered, I would definitely order a large vs an xl. I am a product tester for Gore-tex, but I purchased this for my personal use.

Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
As a Gore-tex fan since it's inception in the 70's, I've had many shells. Ten years ago good Gore-tex ski jackets were hard to find and I have suffered since with a Bogus-tex sheel. The new Stingray brought me back into the fold. It's light and warm like most GTX garments but not as "crunchy" as some of the climbing shells which makes it nice for daily use too. Details are good; hood works great with or without a helmet, collar isn't loose but allows you to dive in when windy, fit is slim but still roomy. Only gripe is limited pockets although with the kids grown, I can probably go skiing with less junk. Pretty pricey but I see it as a good 10 year investment.

This is my first Arcteryx soft shell. I have a few other jacket from them and as always the craftsmanship is impeccable.

Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
Very high quality Gore-tex shell. Fits well and is built well. One of the best features about this jacket is the hood. It is cut so that it does not restrict your vision while skiing. It also will stay over your helmet all day without blowing off. The soft-shell version of the Gore-tex is nice because it provides stretch without compromising waterproofness. Don't expect this jacket to be warm. I recommend using the entire 3 piece layering system from arcteryx if you plan on using this jacket for skiing. Over all it is very versatile; use of the vents regulates temperature well.

Comments about Arc'teryx Stingray Shell Jacket - Men's:
This is a high quality Arc'teryx product, but there are some things to be aware of. I had another Arc'teryx ski jacket before this and didn't see the same issues:
- I wear a large top in everything and rarely have issues with fit(42-44" chest) but this jacket is tight in the chest. Fit around the waist is good.
- The sleeves seem much longer than other Arc'teryx jackets and tops I've owned. The velcro enclosures help ensure the sleeves don't slide down your hands, but the jacket bunches up in the arm. I am a 32-33" sleeve length.
- Not much face protection - if you want good face protection I would go with a product with a more complete face enclosure

The nightshade color that shows on the webiste is a charcoal grey color. Actually, in person this color is a dark or navy blue! I am returning the jacket due to this color change....
