Arc’teryx has launched its strongest iteration of the Beta AR jacket, now built with GORE-TEX PRO ePE. This material represents the latest in GORE-TEX innovation, eliminating PFAS chemicals while delivering superior weather resistance. Despite its durability, the fabric keeps a lightweight profile, ensuring comfort without compromise.
In 2024, Arc’teryx began integrating GORE-TEX ePE across its most popular designs. Today, the Beta AR takes this upgrade further with a PRO-level construction designed for the harshest conditions. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate that this update strengthens the brand’s commitment to performance and sustainability at the same time.
Enhanced Design for Maximum Functionality
The updated Beta AR jacket comes with several practical improvements. Fabric lamination has been optimized for added toughness, and new cordlocks offer extra reliability over time. Pack-friendly pockets allow quick access without removing gear, which is crucial during long expeditions.
The jacket’s articulated fit remains intact, giving wearers room for layered clothing and maintaining mobility in challenging environments. In addition, the helmet-compatible hood provides excellent peripheral vision for technical climbs or alpine adventures. For safety in emergencies, Arc’teryx integrates a lightweight RECCO® reflector into the hood, adding peace of mind during backcountry travel.
Available Now for Extreme Conditions
With this release, Arc’teryx reinforces why the Beta family is a benchmark in technical outerwear. Combining advanced fabric technology with a thoughtful design approach, the Beta AR GORE-TEX PRO ePE offers both resilience and versatility for city use or high-altitude pursuits.
The jacket is now available for purchase on the Arc’teryx webstore, ready for those seeking dependable performance in the most demanding environments.
