Description
The Alpha SV, an Arc’teryx icon repeatedly proven in severe alpine environments, is now stronger and lighter.

Optimized construction, WaterTight™ zippers with RS™ sliders, and minimized seams shed grams. Fully featured with a helmet compatible StormHood™, pit zips, and articulated construction, the Alpha SV remains the choice for extended use in the harshest conditions.
