Arc'teryx Men's Gamma MX Hoody Arc'teryx: Men's Gamma MX Hoody

Durable softshell made for the alpinist's rugged lifestyle. Warm and functional for mixed weather.

From Cheakamus to Chile the Arc'teryx Gamma MX Hoody is the proven and popular softshell middle layer for technical climbing hiking and backpacking. Essentially it's the hooded version of the award-winning Arc'teryx Gamma MX Jacket with the same warm and lightweight Polartec® Power Shield™ fabric in an identical athletic cut. The fabric features a special DWR finish that keeps moisture away from your skin on misty mornings and foggy ascents. Unlike most so-called performance fleece Polartec® Power Shield™ fabric is exceptionally resilient to wear and won't snag like other material. Gear and gadget freaks will appreciate the five storage pockets including a laminated sleeve pocket sized for a two-way radio. Interior front zipper wind flaps and an adjustable hem drawcord help seal out cool breezes. Don't be surprised if you find yourself wearing the Gamma MX Hoody throughout the rest of the year.

Let me first start by saying Altrec is the best. Great prices super fast/cheap shipping. After trying TNF Mountain Hardware and all the other top outdoor brands it is easy to say that Arc'teryx makes the most functional and superior outdoor garments. Living in Colorado I have ample oppty to test this jacket in a variety of conditions. From the slopes to verticval ice walls to extended backpacking trips at high altitude this jackets performs flawlessly. The fit is athletic and as with all other Arc'teryx garments there is no excess material or bagginess in unwated area to clutter up your movement. And the soft polartec lining makes it a joy to wear. The fabric sheds water beutifully and the hood is large to accomodate your helmet. Another winner from Arc'teryx. You dont need that new couch buy a couple of these instead you wont be sorry.

You get what you pay for with this jacket. Though I haven't put it through any extreme tests yet I can say that the quality workmanship fit feel & styling are all superb. As was mentioned it takes layering easily without excess fabric. Also feels good next-to-skin. A strong wind barely permeates the membrane & helps to eliminate clamminess.


This jacket is a great investment. Image: 5 Stars

This jacket represents one of the finest soft shell out there. The Mountain Hardwear Synchro and Alchemy are pale in comparision to this jacket. Altrec's customer service was very helpful and knowledgable. The delivery was right on-time. Get this jacket!!!! It worths every penny.

fabric is awesome great for high output- not a warm shell- a great windblocker and bacsic hooded softshell to guard you from elements- atheletic fit- buy it for its purpose and you cannot find a better climbing shell- to go to the mall look to north face :)
