Product Information

Warranty: Arc’teryx will replace or repair rain gear for what it considers to be the practical product lifespan. Rain gear damaged through wear and tear, misuse, or neglect may be repaired at a reasonable price. I was able to try out the Zeta FL at the store the other day. Will the Zeta SL have the exact same sizing/fitting compared to the FL?

In one of previous updates, Beta LT had gotten slammed. From an amazing Beta AR alternative, it had suddenly turned into a cheap Beta AR. To keep your outdoor clothing and equipment in tip top condition and performing to its maximum we recommend the use of Nikwax products. We have been using Nikwax products since day one (26 th March 1986) and have found them to be totally reliable, dependable and effective. Today’s Nikwax treatments contain environmentally friendly elastic water-repellent polymers that bond to fabric fibres, leaving the spaces between open and breathable. These stretchy polymers are able to stretch and move with the fabric so they stay put for longer and work better. One of the stand-out features we appreciate most on the Zeta SL is the stiffened bottom hem fabric on the legs. This really allows you to stretch the limits of these shell pants. For outdoor enthusiasts, it can become troubling to choose the right layer for the activity at hand. If you want optimal performance, you end up with three different types of shell pants; one for skiing, one for hiking, and another for emergency use on your ultralight adventures. The Zeta SL comes impressively close to serving the most needs in a single pair of shell pants—and that hem design helps make it so. While we do not recommend buying these pants for the purpose of mountaineering, if you take them on a trip to try it out for the first time, they will likely be adequate, and that stiffer fabric at the hem of the lower leg will help prevent you from catching your crampons on the pants. Easy to clean: Gore-Tex recommends washing garments as needed, and says washing and tumble drying can improve water resistance.

Then I'd recommend you the Zeta SL ( Men's- Women's) . After 2021 updates, this is your only option anyway. Arc'teryx discontinued Zeta FL ( read my review ), Beta FL ( read my review ) and Beta SL Hybrid ( read my review ) all together. Durability: The 20 denier for the coat and 40 denier for the pants feel robust enough to last for years.

Even this seemingly small upgrade helped in the making of a lighter, better-moving, waterproof raincoat. Nikwax treatments will not change the look or feel of the fabric and they are all water based, environmentally safe, non-flammable and contain no nasty Fluorocarbons. Nikwax products can be used to clean, re-proof and revitalise all your outdoor technical clothing and equipment.We currently don’t provide the breathability rating as this measure isn’t standardized in the industry and the results can be influenced by many factors (the fit, outside temperature and humidity and much more). Main zipper isn’t two-way, which can be helpful for activities like belaying when you’re wearing a harness.
