Arc'teryx Alpha SV Men's GORE-TEX PRO Shell Jacket
Arc'teryx Alpha SV Men's GORE-TEX PRO Shell Jacket
The Arc'teryx Alpha SV Jacket is a men's alpine hardshell built for sustained exposure in severe mountain conditions. Its 100D 3L GORE-TEX PRO ePE fabric delivers durable waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection, while the regular fit is cut comfortably through the chest, waist, hip, and thigh with room to layer over or under other pieces.
Articulated patterning supports climbing efficiency and free ice-tool swings, and a helmet-compatible StormHood provides full coverage without blocking visibility. Two harness-compatible chest pockets, two internal dump pockets, a zippered security pocket, and a left bicep pocket keep essentials accessible, while pit zippers vent heat quickly when conditions change.

Highlights
The new ePE membrane technology is lighter and thinner, but just as strong and durable as previous materials. Face fabric may “wet out” slightly faster in products with ePE membranes, but this does not affect the waterproofing of the membrane itself. If the fabric wets out faster than desired, wash the jacket and dry it to remove oil contamination and restore the DWR to full power.
