I don’t know, I was looking at Arc’teryx jackets a couple months ago, and they looked exactly like the quality in between of Uniqlo and Patagonia… except like 10x Uniqlo price.

I was ready to drop some bread and was quite disappointed.

For me, the big difference compared to Patagonia is the cut instead of build quality. The Arc Teryx jackets all fit me perfectly without and restriction of movement. The hoods are perfect with helmets, and don’t restrict my view the way my Patagonia ski coat does.

I bought a Patagonia Pow Slayer; it’s a great, light rain shell— but it would be impossible on the slopes as there’s no room for anything but a very light fleece underneath.

They make the arms so freaking long you have to size down, whoch means a snug fit in the torso.
