I am very satisfied with this Arc'teryx jacket, It has many features. At first, thanks to its Gore-Tex softshell materials, it is softer than normal hardshell jacket, and could provide some warmth for me. Secondly, it could protect me from heavy rain or hurricane, same with other hardshell. At last, It looks so stylish and has a high quality, I love it!

Love Arc'teryx
First time I have ever bought Arc'teryx. It is higher end, but definitely worth the money. Love the color I bought and the fabric offers great protection from all kinds of weather. I will be buying more Arc'teryx in the future.

Tempest Jacket
I have been a fan of Arcteryx jackets for many years and have owned a couple myself so I was comfortable recommending to my wife that she check them out herself. I know what good quality costs so that was not an issue for me. She gets cold easily so was not sure about buying a shell but she is a convert now. She is 5'3" and slim so she tried the small - fits perfectly. On a recent hike on a 20 degree day she said that she was completely comfortable without overheating or feeling like she was sweating in the jackte (which she was accustomed to with other jackets) She also had on a fleece and poly pro base layer. The sleeves are little long (by design) but the velcro closures give her a good arm fit and the hood is designed to accomodate a helmet (which she does not use) but the pull cord gives a good fit there as well. She likes the whole look of the jacket because it would look good in the city or on the mountain (especially the light blue accents on the sleeve and zippers).
