The Arc'teryx Brand

Arc'teryx is founded on the idea that there is always a better way.

Drawing inspiration from the Coast Mountains, Arc'teryx designs and tests their gear right where it's needed most.

Their headquarters functions as both a design center and an engineering lab, allowing them to rigorously develop and refine their products.

From selecting materials to creating new designs and perfecting manufacturing techniques, every aspect of production is finely tuned to ensure the final product is of the highest possible quality. Each step is taken with precision to deliver smooth, efficient, and durable gear built for real-world performance.

Arc'teryx Tech

Arc'teryx creates top-tier outerwear thanks to their partnership with W. L. Gore.

By integrating a Gore-Tex layer between durable, water-repellent fabric and a backer, they revolutionized their gear with a 3-layer material. This Gore-Tex membrane, made from a thin ePTFE layer (TEFLON™), blocks water while allowing moisture to escape.

Products like the Alpha SV Jacket showcase this innovation, offering lightweight durability.

Additionally, Arc'teryx uses the Gore Environmental Testing Chamber to mimic extreme mountain conditions before testing prototypes in the local mountains to ensure real-world performance.

Arc'teryx History

Arc'teryx introduced their first apparel product in 1998, marking the start of their partnership with W. L. Gore.

The Alpha SV jacket revolutionized the market by cutting 300 grams from the typical outdoor jacket's weight while maintaining windproof, waterproof, and durable qualities.

Over the years, Arc'teryx has continued to innovate, incorporating advanced features like Gore-Tex fabric and watertight zippers, ensuring their products remain at the cutting edge of performance and design in the outdoor industry.
