The Arc'teryx Beta SL Jacket: The Evolution of the Beta LT toward Ultra-LightweightFormerly known as the
Beta LT or
Beta Lightweight, the new
Beta SL (Superlight) establishes itself as the lightest and most packable jacket in the Arc'teryx Beta series. Designed for the demanding realities of the mountains, it provides a total barrier against the elements without any excess. It is the quintessential versatile hardshell, capable of transitioning from technical hiking to mountaineering with disconcerting agility.
GORE-TEX ePE Technology: Eco-Responsible Innovation
The Beta SL ushers in a new era of sustainable protection:
-
GORE-TEX ePE Membrane: This innovative membrane is thinner and lighter, while remaining just as robust as previous versions. It is completely PFC-free and reduces the product's carbon footprint.
-
GORE C-KNIT™ Backer: Inside, C-KNIT technology provides an exceptionally soft feel. It improves breathability and eliminates the "plastic" sensation of classic rain jackets, offering optimal comfort even against the skin.
-
Total Mobility: Thanks to an articulated structure, the Beta SL moves with you during climbing or hiking, without any restrictions.
Mountain Technical Features
Every detail is designed for safety and ventilation:
-
StormHood™: Helmet-compatible, it offers full coverage and adjusts to ensure it never obstructs your field of vision.
-
Effort Management: Pit zips allow for rapid ventilation during intense ascents to wick away body moisture.
-
RECCO® Safety: The integrated RECCO reflector facilitates search and rescue in mountain emergencies.
-
Bio-based Materials: The nylon outer fabric is plant-based, reinforcing Arc'teryx's commitment to sustainable development.
