Description
Designed for versatility with a focus on trekking and hiking, the Zeta AR is made from N70p 3L GORE-TEX fabric with GORE C-KNIT backer technology. This material delivers durable waterproof, windproof, highly breathable protection with a backer technology that makes the fabric exceptionally supple, quiet and comfortable. The Arc’teryx Trim fit keeps the shell close to the body to improve the GORE-TEX fabric’s breathability, but leaves room for light layers. Articulation in the sleeves and gusseted underarms provide freedom of movement.
HARDWIRED for the TRAIL
Hardwired for the trail, the Zeta AR is built for exploring big terrain. On extended outings or when working hard in mixed conditions, the WaterTight pit zippers provide rapid ventilation. The low profile Arc’teryx StormHood delivers full protection and cinches securely with a single adjuster for a fit that moves with the head and provides exceptional peripheral vision. The hip length with drop back hem extends coverage and rides comfortable under a hipbelt. An internal laminated pocket stows and protects a smartphone or wallet, and two hand pockets with WaterTight zippers are accessible while wearing a pack or harness.
COMFORTABLE PROTECTION
The 3-layer GORE-TEX fabric with GORE C-KNIT backer technology provides protection with exceptional comfort. The proven bi-component GORE-TEX membrane system is bonded to a dense, extremely thin circular knit to form a supple, less bulky, patent-pending durable laminate that is more breathable and lighter weight than previous constructions. The circular knit’s soft, smooth texture is comfortable, quiet, and helps the Zeta easily slide on and off over other layers.
