If you don't know ArcTeryx Products, you won't believe this jacket. It shocks the heck out of me that they can manufacture a shell of this thickness (not much) while keeping…

Holly Moose poop, $475 for a jacket! Never thought I’d buy a jacket that cost this much, but wish I would have purchased it earlier. I live in Germany and while I’ve only…

Don't listen to that other review. Moosejaw was awesome in getting me this jacket. I had gotten the previous year's model with rewards points and it didn't fit but by the time…

I bought this jacket last year just before Christmas. After spending the previous winter getting wet and cold in my old jacket. I have to say that I have been blown away by…

My favorite feature to this jacket is there is no bulk to it. I can roll the jacket into the hood and it takes up no space. Easy to pack and fits well. I'm 5'10 and 200 and th…

The fit of the jacket is awesome slim but not to slim, 5"10 142 pounds, small fits perfect. The micro blue color is way cooler than the pic gives it credit for. The quality o…

I was felt completely comfortable at -22 F (-30 degrees C) with everyday wear under a jacket. It is fully wind- and water- proof, plus keeps the heat inside. Adjusting the hoo…

The jacket is surprisingly light and it isn't bulky. It can be easily stowed or packed. The core loft performs well to heat you up. The warmth spreads almost immediately after…

I had tried many different Gortex jackets and I was not impressed. The insides of those jackets were always wet with any high aerobic activity. I bought the Beta FL not exp…

The outer material is very high quality, pictures can't do it justice. The coreloft insulation is super soft, springy, and gives the feel of the perfect balance between weight…

Excellent jacket, HOWEVER, about a month after wearing it, I found that there was a small delamination inside the main zipper. So I contacted MooseJaw to ask if I could excha…

This is perfect for wearing around town, where the lack of pit zips. The one downside is the very large, which is designed to accommodate a helmet. Still, a very nice jacket…

The jacket looked a lot cooler on the website then in person. The material is a little strange. It's an uncomfortable wool blend. The small elastic cuffs were also weird.…
