The material and hood for this coat are great for a rainy urban environment. I also like the longer length, as I walk for my daily commutes and it is nice to have more coverage.Two things that I would change are the fit in the mid section -the coat billows out a little in the mid section around the waist, which makes it fit a little strangely, and the 2 way zipper -it is difficult to zip the coat. Otherwise, I think it is a great coat for living in the PNW and I am thankful to have a reliable longer rain coat.

Wore this for light to moderate activity in the Pacific Northwest with temps ranging from 45-65F. Transitions perfectly from cool to warm and breathes like a dream. Kept me warm in the morning with a mid layer, cool in the afternoon sun, and dry in the rain. The fabric is on the thinner side and it's not as substantial as my Beta AR shell. However, it's extremely roomy and lightweight. The 2-way zipper did give me some issues when connecting the bottom parts so that is my only complaint.

Love this longer length jacket as a water-repellant outer layer during winter activities. And, it fits over my down layer! I only wish Arctyrex would add pit zips to the design, then it would always be in my pack for winter snowshoeing & hiking. Why oh why is it so challenging to find longer length Goretex jacket WITH PIT ZIPS? Please, help out us taller gals who want a little more coverage and still able to unzip to cool down when going uphill.

I was so excited to see this jacket and read about the revised fit (and adjustable back). I am a huge Arc’teryx fan, I have at least 25 jackets from the past 15-20 years…I could be sponsored by the company and have raved about dozens of different products over the years, yet as a super athletic 95 lbs woman I find the new fits challenging. I was really pleased it came in an XXS, I was excited about the color…but the fit is still SO off…at least for a smaller person, and I can’t really see who this jacket is going to work for. I was drowning the the jacket, and because it was so big it was like wearing a large garbage sack around the house. Maybe over time the material would not be a crunchy or stiff…but it was a fail. I didn’t have to think twice about sending it ... MoreI was so excited to see this jacket and read about the revised fit (and adjustable back).

I love the coat but would like it to be mid calf length. I cannot find any lightweight waterproof mid calf length raincoats anywhere. I sized up to a Medium for layering. I am 5'6" 110 lbs. Arcteryx seems to run smaller than other brands
I wanted to love this jacket but it just didn't suit me. The jacket is a great length, long enough to provide coverage and still be versatile. Its really lightweight and packs down quite well. I didn't really notice any noise from shell when moving. Overall fit is quite roomy for layering (Size Small).The only reason not a full 5 star is that it makes me feel flat and wouldn't say its overally fitting for me/my body type (lean, straight with not much hip and smaller bust). Overall not a flattering coat but excellent quality
I have a short beta for more active pursuits and love it. I wanted to try the longer version for a more urban look and love it. The straighter cut works for me. Awesome for the rainy west coast winter with some room for layers.
Great fit, waterproof, lightweight and covers my backside. Never have to worry again about the freezing rain blowing under my pack and freezing my cheeks. Great length and doesn’t ride up under my pack. Good covers well over a brim.
I love my new rain coat, I've always wanted a proper waterproof rain coat living on the west coast. My only slight issue with the jacket is the zipper can be fussy. I wore it unzipped all yesterday because I felt rushed and didn't have the patience to fuss with it. It might be that I'm still getting used to it? Other than this, I love it, no regrets! :)
This is the perfect city rain jacket! I wanted something comfortable and stylish in the rain but not too rugged looking. I think the design and fit are simple/elegant/flattering and love how it can either swing or cinch. You can wear a cashmere or chunky sweater underneath and not feel bulky. Love it.
