A versatile, high performance jacket for diverse activities and conditions
Packable, breathable, durable waterproof protection across the spectrum of alpine environments and activities, the Beta AR Jacket is created to deliver performance versatility.
From frigid winter hikes to bluebird days in the backcountry, the Beta AR Jacket rises to the challenge. Your go-to hardshell for every mountain mission, its hybrid construction holds up to snow, sleet, and strong summit winds. Ultra durable GORE-TEX PRO ePE on the yoke and arms resists abrasion, while a lighter version on the body reduces weight and bulk. The result? A fully featured jacket that delivers what you need, where you need it.
What's been updated:Updated with GORE-TEX PRO ePE fabrics, free from intentionally added PFAS. New patterning minimizes fabric waste, saving 800 metres of material—the equivalent of 400 jackets—in the production process. Enhanced fabric lamination and updated cordlocks improve durability.

Guide Pick
"Arcteryx hardshells are expensive but are definitely a cut above the rest."
The guides over at RMI collectively spend over 10,000+ days a year on the world's highest mountains, climbing hundreds of thousands of vertical feet. They put their gear and apparel through the wringer. This stuff is their work wear and they simply will not tolerate inferior gear.
Step 2
At the end of the climbing season, guides are given a survey to find out what gear they are using and why it is their favorite. We don’t often get complete agreement but we do get alignment and by looking at the data, a few clear winners rise to the top in each category.
Step 3
We take those winners, and stamp them with the Guide Pick™ logo on our site. We also compile this wonderful little document, which you can use to see top contenders, gear advice, Guide Quotes, and more.
