I was looking for a shell which would be versatile, fit for the city, the mountain and the hills. The Beta AR is exactly what I needed. Although I haven't fully put it through its passes yet I'm so far very pleased.

Bought the regular beta, then switched to the AR. This one is the better premium feeling one that I feel will last me years and years.

Just hit the slopes with this for the first time today. Felt great! By far my favorite jacket I've worn thus far. Great wind proof capability and of course, very waterproof. Got a lil warm at one point and even had to shed some base layers thanks to this jacket. 10/10

This is a heavy-duty, well-built hardshell. I use this jacket when I know conditions are going to be epic and really wet.

Use during the spring and fall when weather is not so intense. Works well also on colder summer days because of the vents under the arms. On feature I dislike is the hood that is designed for a helmet. Hood ids way to big using otherwise. Would be nice when purchasing the coat to have an option of a standard hood. Love the smooth operating zippers. Not sharp edges like the standards zippers of other clothing! All around excellent product. (This is my 3rd coat!!)

I got this to use primarily as an alpinism jacket, and it's been amazing so far. Very happy with its performance both in that in lifestyle

The beta AR is a proven winner; not too hot for the occasional summer storm but really coming in to its own in early spring and late fall. As for winter, the perfect outer when the wind and snow kick up. I love the pit zips, they are like having a built in thermostat. Build quality is excellent.

The quality of the Beta AR Jacket is outstanding. It's built to handle the outdoors with impressive waterproof performance, and the fit is stylish and well-designed. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a reliable and good-looking outdoor jacket!

Fantastic for outdoor adventures! It's completely waterproof and windproof, and the Gore-Tex Pro fabric feels durable yet flexible. The details like helmet-compatible hood and pit zips make it super functional. A bit pricey, but worth every penny for serious hikers and climbers!

An amazing jacket that is truly all round. It's just light enough to be used in the summer over a t shirt and just heavy enough to wear backcountry skiing. The coverage and cut are great for mobility and protection. Love the drop hood!

This shell is an amazing rain jacket. I bought mine in 2021. Recently, on a 6-day, 5-night spring Smokies Mountains trip, it rained hard every day except for the days when it was snowing! Needless to say, it was cold and wet. Out of our group of 8 hikers, I was the only one with an Arcteryx jacket (the Beta AR), and I was the only one in the group that stayed dry throughout the trip. After the trip I noticed some delamination on the sleeves, but Arcteryx warranty is excellent and they covered the replacement cost of the jacket. Buy the jacket, use it, enjoy it, and wash it more often than you think you should.

From ice climbing the Slheimajkull glacier in Iceland to the backcountry of the Canadian Rockies. From snowboarding steep lines to treks through the Anidies. This jacket is truly an all 'round jacket.

Great jacket for a mixed climate like southern Ontario. It's been super reliable, functional, and comfortable. Does exactly as advertised.

Perfect on its own, our paired with an Atom or Kyanite underneath, this shells wind and water proofing cannot be beaten. The adjustability of the hood, as well as the ventilation and taped seams make it an amazing piece that everyone should have in their outdoor arsenal.

Stylish jacket which has some excellent practical features. Although some have complained about the arm length I have found this to be a perfect fit. The extra length means that when I pair it with my cerium jacket the shell sleeves cover all of the mid layer and don't ride up with certain movements. In time I'm sure this jacket will serve me well in my outdoor pursuits. Only negative is that it's more costly than other market equivalents.

I've had this jacket about a year now, only one winter. When layered properly this thing is solid in the snow. Rest of the year I wear it on its own when it rains and it's perfect. Doesn't get better than this!!

Such a great jacket, super durable. Use it for hiking, dayuse, powerwashing, through heavy brush and it's stood the test of time, thinking of getting another one just to change it up
