Arc'Teryx Alpha Comp Hoody - Mens Jackets
Brand: Arc'Teryx
Type: Soft Shell




Product Features
The Arc'teryx Alpha Comp Hoody is made for high output ascents and quick getaways. Much more breathable than a full hardshell, the Alpha Comp Hoody can handle cold fronts or powder face shots without flinching. The fully featured Storm Hood lets you wear a mountaineering helmet or downhill dome without restricting vision or movement. Gusseted underarms and Durastretch fabric make swinging an ice axe or stretching for the next pole plant easy and unencumbered. The Alpha Comp Hoody's hip length and drop back gives full protection while not interfereing with your harness or backpack. This clever hybrid design uses softshell construction for breathability, and hardshell panels where waterproofing is key. The result is a jacket with a broad comfort range that is better in bad weather than a full softshell.

Bottom Line: This is hybrid technology from the company that takes a different approach to outerwear.
