Offering lightweight reliable protection from the elements the arc teryx men s beta lt jacket is a great choice for all your alpine adventures.
Beta lt jacket women s review.
The arc teryx zeta lt is a lightweight 3 layer rain jacket built with the uber comfortable gore tex c knit backer.
The beta sl hybrid from arc teryx is arguably one of the most useful and well made hardshell jackets we have tested.
At 10 9 ounces for my women s small arc teryx lists it at 10 6 oz it s the lightest jacket in the beta lineup by a good margin the beta sv is 15 5 ounces the ar is 13 4 ounces and the lt is 11 1 ounces.
For high output activities absolutely proton lt men s women s read my review along with beta ar it s one of my 2 arc teryx favorites.
The sl in the beta sl hybrid s name is short for superlight and we think that s an appropriate designation.
They have opted for a dual fabric design that takes the durability and 3 layer components of a more advanced shell and upgraded the beta sl to the new.
It adds just enough versatility and durability to the simpler lighter non hybrid sl making it a phenomenally lightweight and fully featured.
Its lightweight gore tex pro fabric keeps you dry through the heaviest downpours while remaining breathable enough for summer alpine.
The beta lt s pockets are large and sit high enough to rest above the waist belt on a pack or harness.
The combination of fabric and membrane create a rain jacket that s smooth and soft doing away with overbearing crinkly fabrics and unpleasant stickiness often associated with rain jackets.
If you re most likely to reach for a rain jacket while out hiking the beta line may have too many added features.
Weighing in at just 11 ounces the lt is the lightest option in arc teryx s beta line.
The main difference between the beta and alpha series is that this jacket features double handwarmer pockets instead of chest pockets.
Arc teryx currently offers the beta sl a non hybrid version but it is being phased out.
Instead consider the hiking specific zeta jackets.
