Best Hiking Jacket Women's

When we say that the new Zeta SL is one of, if not thee most stormworthy model tested in this article; you can bet your bottom dollar it will withstand whatever Mother Nature throws at them.

The Sentinel LT is Arc'teryx's most expensive ski shell, but it also offers an additional layer of protection and versatility. The Sentinel AR's thin flannel backer replaces the C-Knit lining, adding a couple of ounces. It's also half an inch shorter than the LT, but features the same five pockets as the LT.

New seasons are opportunities to improve: your skills, your style, your kit. We believe there is always a better way.

Arc'teryx reduces the weight of this model in several ways: there's no additional ventilation besides simply unzipping the primary front zipper, this saves a least a few ounces of materials of zippers and stitching. Arc'teryx uses a 13 mm seam which is the narrowest in our review. This model uses watertight zippers, enabling them to minimize the size of the storm flap further saving weight. Even the Velcro wrist straps are low profile, also minimizing weight without giving up much, if anything in that way of functionality. While not the absolute lightest model, for most users this model is plenty light enough to satisfy the majority of outdoor enthusiasts.
