Based on my experiences with arc teryx see my review of the alpha sv jacket i decided on the gamma mx.
Arc teryx gamma mx jacket review.
The arc teryx gamma mx hoody is a softshell jacket with an additional fleece backing for protecting and insulating from the wind and light precipitation in colder weather activities.
I chose the hooded version for added warmth when a toque just won t do.
While this jacket isn t perfect for everything we ve found it to be one of the best choices for a broad range of non summer activities a layer you can take out without disappointment or frustration.
As the equipment coordinator for a search and rescue team i was faced with buying up to 50 fleece jackets for my team members.
Arc teryx updated the fortius fabric in this 2020 model.
Delivering light weather protection breathable warmth and exceptional freedom of movement the gamma mx hoody is the solution.
Gamma mx hoody alpine environments are dynamic.
Alpine climbers and backcountry skiers can wear this midweight jacket alone in mild mixed weather conditions or they can wear this jacket as an insulating layer beneath a storm shell.
Year after year the arc teryx gamma mx hoody covers many of the bases for a great technical softshell for cold weather.
The gamma mx softshell jacket is arc teryx warmest gamma durable enough for the crag and weather resistant enough for fast changing mountain conditions.
It is well tailored comfortable and features decent mobility.
Built from our fortius 2 0 fabric the gamma mx provides midweight insulation resists wind and water breathes and delivers exceptional durability.
