chaz44's Review of Arc'teryx Alpha FL Jacket - Men's

I'll preface it by saying I haven't put it through the ringer yet. I'm still on the fence about keeping it, but it's based on personal preference on style, nothing to do with quality or performance of the jacket. I own a lot of Arcteryx garments, and this jacket is right up there in terms of fit and quality. I love that it's really lightweight and minimal. I have a very slender build, 5' 7" and weigh around 130 - 132 lbs. I find my Beta AR in XS to fit great (with layering underneath), a little boxy, but great for winter sports or just walking around town. The Alpha FL is trimmer, definitely not baggy but does allow for a light layer underneath. One of the reasons why I love the Beta AR is that the jacket has a neck collar. The Alpha FL doesn't, I know this won't bother most people.
Pros:
  • Build quality
  • Fit, comfort, performance
Cons:
  • None
