Upstate NY Family's Review of Arc'teryx Beta AR Jacket - Women's

This was purchased for my wife as a present. Great style and appears to be well made. Zippers are good and hood fits as it should- comfortable with the option to snug it up with toggle ties. What was key about this was the fit. I bought her a large- seemed unusual at the time but was a very smart move. My wife is on the smaller side 5’3”, 125lbs but has a larger chest. This coat has adequate room throughout the chest and arm areas and has a degree of taper at the midsection of coat towards the waist. As a result, it looks good and has a more firm fitting style (it is not form fitted but has a more pleasant appearance through the midsection). Why was this important....? Well a frequent complaint for my wife is that when she gets a coat to fit the chest area, very often it looks like a large, unflattering box on her. With this coat, that isn’t the case at all. She may have even been able to do a medium; however, the large lets her layer underneath. Since we live in the Northeast, the ability to do so is a must. Note: because Of the coat style/ design, my wife can wear fleece and / or other layers underneath and it still does not have a bulky appearance. Hope this is of some use for someone....
