Arc teryx beta lt hybrid jacket men s review.

While we prefer full 3 layer rain jackets like the arc teryx zeta lt for wilderness backpacking expeditions they re simply more durable and reliable over longer periods of time the beta sl hybrid would work well for folks who aren t experiencing terribly rainy weather. Another option in arc teryx s superlight category is the zeta sl built for summer hiking and trekking the zeta sl lacks the strategically placed 3 layer gore tex of the beta instead opting for 2 layer gore tex with paclite plus throughout which. Arc teryx s beta sl hybrid is a versatile and weather worthy shell designed to be used for a variety of activities. Beta sl hybrid jacket highly packable and versatile the beta sl hybrid jacket is strategically constructed from two different gore tex fabrics to maximize performance and minimize weight.

We find that day hikes or backpacking trips with lighter packs in fair conditions are where this jacket excels.
