| The Arc'teryx women's Alpha SV jacket earned the American Alpine Institute Guide's Choice award, for being a personal storm fortress. You'll appreciate it too when you're high in the mountains and on mother nature's bad side. Contrasting body panels, of Gore-Tex, put more durable fabrics in high wear areas while surrounding your torso in breathability. Welded seams with Tiny Gore taping make the Alpha SV impregnable to both wind and water. The elimination of storm flaps and bulky seams eliminates excess weight and makes this fowl weather friend easily stowed. The new Vislon WaterTight zip is more pliable, weather resistant, and user friendly than previous closures. High, harness-friendly pockets have WaterTight zips to keep electronics, tools, or chow, dry and in close reach. Designed for mountaineering, all pockets and vents are positioned to be accessed while wearing a pack. Gusseted no-lift underarms are destined for summit bids as they let the Alpha SV stay in place as you reach ever higher. |

Reviews:
great rain jacket
This is the first rainjacket I have owned - other than those generic Target types that come in a plastic bag. It was very pricey but it held up to the So.CA downpour last month. The jacket is very well constructed. I can wear a sweater underneath and still move freely, and the hood is very roomy. I only wish it had hand pockets. I still have to take it out on a rainy hike for the ultimate test, otherwise, I give it a high thumbs-up.
