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.
Package delivered in great condition, this Beta AR shell jacket helps a lot in my recent mountain climbing event with great windproof and waterproof.

Bomb proof and super light
I originally thought this was going to be pretty thick and heavy given the use of Goretex Pro and the endless waterproof reviews. Pleasantly surprised with how light it is while seemingly up to the task. Stoked to use it for upcoming climbs.
