Productinformatie  

The Arc’teryx Men’s Beta AR Jacket – Lodestar is a high-performance, all-round mountain shell designed for demanding alpine use without sacrificing versatility. Built to excel in climbing, mountaineering, and severe conditions, it offers a fine-tuned balance of durability and lightweight performance.

Key Features

• GORE-TEX PRO ePE membrane: advanced, rugged, fully waterproof and PFAS-free. 

• Hybrid construction: extra durable GORE-TEX PRO ePE materials on the yoke and arms, lighter versions across the torso to reduce weight. 

• 80D beam-dyed recycled nylon shell: with DWR (C0 / FC0) treatment for water repellency. 

• StormHood™ (helmet-compatible): adjustable hood engineered to fit over helmets without obstructing vision. 

• Pit zips (underarm ventilation): enabling efficient heat release during exertion. 

• WaterTight™ zippers & fully taped seams: to maintain waterproof integrity in all critical zones. 

• Embedded RECCO® reflector: a safety feature to aid search & rescue detection. 

• Adjustable hem & cuffs: for a snug fit and blocking cold airflow. 

Benefits to the User

• Top-tier weather protection: The GORE-TEX PRO ePE architecture offers reliable waterproofing, windproofing, and durability essential for alpine environments.

• Reinforced zones where needed: Heavily used areas (shoulders, arms) are strengthened to resist abrasion from packs, ropes, and rough surfaces.

• Weight savings where possible: The hybrid design reduces bulk in lower-stress zones, making the jacket more comfortable on extended missions.

• Ventilation control: The pit zips allow you to dump heat quickly when climbing, preventing overheating.

• Built-in safety: The included RECCO® reflector gives added peace of mind when venturing into remote terrain.

• Tailored fit and control: Adjustable cuffs and hem let you refine the fit and ensure protection in changing conditions.

Layering 

Wearing layers is essential when it comes to winter sports clothing. Choosing the right layers keeps you warm and dry, wicks away sweat, and ensures full comfort and freedom of movement on the slopes. We’ve written a blog for you about how to make the best use of different clothing layers.
