Arc'teryx Beta Jacket - A Classic Performer

3 months ago

The Arc'teryx Beta series continues to live up to its legendary reputation, and this Trail Magic colorway is truly unmatched in its aesthetic appeal. The iconic golden bird logo adds that perfect touch of sophistication - who could resist this subtle yet striking detail? An absolute must-have for outdoor enthusiasts seeking both performance and style. While the product itself is flawless, my online purchasing experience through REI left much to be desired. The fraud prevention system mistakenly flagged my single-item purchase (in my exact size) as potential reseller activity. For clarity: I buy gear strictly for personal use, and if I were seeking profit through resale, wouldn't I order multiple units rather than one perfectly fitted jacket? I sincerely hope REI will refine their verification algorithms to better distinguish between genuine customers and commercial buyers. Despite the checkout frustrations, this jacket earns my wholehearted recommendation. Here's hoping retailers can match the same standard of excellence that Arc'teryx consistently delivers through its products.

Not much to say about fabrics and waterproofing. After checking a lot of information, it is said that the new beta jacket has been upgraded for 80 days, which is more wear-resistant, and a search and rescue locator has been added. I feel that the new model is worth entering. In terms of workmanship, this one of mine is made in Canada. The bird logo embroidery is full and the glue is neatly pressed inside. I only found a thread on the shoulder. After all, the clothes are not works of art, and I am personally satisfied.In terms of size, my height is 182, my weight is 75, and the size I bought is M. Personally, except for the long sleeves, other sizes are very suitable. First of all, the length of the clothes is just right, and the back can be covered to the middle and lower position of the buttocks. The hem is very good whether it is worn normally or tightened. Secondly, the bust is also suitable. It's just right to wear thick fleece inside. atom heavyw can zip up and it won't be very crowded. cerium down will not work. If there is a need to add down inside, it is recommended to buy a bigger size.

Awesome cool slim thick black jacket

7 months ago

It’s a pretty cool jacket, however I’m 5’10 and ordered a large jacket. It’s a little baggy on me but that’s ok! I would suggest looking up size measurements before making the same mistake.

Great Jacket

4 months ago

I’m 6’3, 190 with longer arms than the average person and the Medium fits well with a regular fit. I can put a lightweight hoody under it no problem and still fits/looks good. A large would be too big for me! I wear large in every other ARC’TERYX upper body clothing item for reference and a medium for pants/shorts. I have the 2016 beta lt version of this and it’s a large with a slim athletic fit. Quite a bit different fit in this jacket. I got colonic color and very cool.

Very handsome jacket

9 months ago

BETA is the most classic and best-selling series of Archaeopteryx. JACKET can be regarded as the basic entry model in BETA. It adopts three-layer N30p Gore- tex waterproof breathable membrane and incorporates gore-knit lining technology. The overall feel is softer, with low noise and good air permeability, but the wear resistance and scratch resistance are weak. There is no underarm breathable zipper, which is more suitable for hiking, hiking, commuting and other environments. It can be used as an outer layer protection and is very handsome to match.

Excellent Gear, Frustrating Checkout Experience

3 months ago

I finally received my Arc'teryx Beta jacket this month after multiple failed attempts - my order was mysteriously canceled three times during checkout (REI's system showed "wrong billing/shipping information" each time). While this was my first and rather disappointing shopping experience with REI online, the product itself deserves full stars. Let's start with the jacket: **Absolute perfection.** The trail Magic colorway looks even more stunning in person than on screen. I've tested it through heavy rains and 35mph winds during coastal hikes - the Gore-Tex fabric truly delivers 100% waterproof protection without sacrificing breathability. The helmet-compatible hood and adjustable cuffs show Arc'teryx's signature attention to mountaineering details. **Final verdict:** 5/5 for the jacket (worth every penny), 2/5 for REI's digital experience. If you persist through checkout issues, this technical shell will exceed your expectations

Where’s the armpit zipper?

6 months ago

This is my go to ultimate protection against heavy rain and strong winds. It’s a great lightweight and easily packable shell. But where did the armpit zippers go??? True, it’s my own fault that I didn’t check the website description against all the assumed details (does it have two side pockets? Is the hood attached between the sleeves?), but I thought that at this price point I’m getting a quality jacket.

Hi there. Thanks for sharing your feedback on the Beta Jacket. We are excited to hear that you are happy with it being lightweight, packable, and that it offers the protection you are looking for. That being said, we are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with it not featuring pit zippers, we recommend looking at the Beta SL Jacket for a similar piece with pit zippers.

great rainjacket

2 weeks ago

Went for an overnight backcountry hike when it wasn't supposed to rain and i woke up in a downpour. This jacket is awesome, it fits me very well, its breathable and waterproof. I had read several reviews prior to buying it and the only drawback was that it was expensive, however, it is well worth the price I paid for it. I highly recommend it.
