Read More From Here Now In addition to waterproof breathable Gore-Tex Pro material, Arc'teryx gave the Men's Theta SV Jacket an extra-long cut to provide even more protection in horrendous weather. Seal the helmet-compatible hood around your noggin, close all the WaterTight zippers, and let the Theta SV Jacket keep you dry through the worst mountain storms. When the weather mellows out a bit, open the Underarm zips and store the hood in the collar to keep from overheating as you take advantage of the break in weather to move your camp up the mountain or enjoy a few laps of powder.

"Amazing construction, design, and functionality." 2010-01-11By

The Theta SV is a Gore-Tex technical shell that's handmade in Canada and I couldn't be happier with it. The construction quality is exquisite: every seem is perfectly straight and solid. In the field it performs exactly how you'd expect from a pro shell, there are no issues with wind or water coming through the material (of course) or any seems. You could stand in your shower in this thing and not feel a drop of moisture. The hood is ideal and I really like that you can store it. In addition, the collar is not too bad as far as height goes and doesn't look as garish as in the photos. I had a store clerk try to talk me into a large (which just happened to be all they had left) because these "run big" but I think you should pick your normal size in this garment. I ordered an XL like I wear in everything else and it is the right fit here as well. Sizing is a little different though and you may want to try this on before buying it online. It is designed for a man with a V-shape - large in the shoulders and narrow through the middle. It has extra room in the shoulders for climbing (this is an Alpine jacket) so they look a bit big and if you are more barrel shaped I'm not sure this would fit, especially with multiple layers or a down layer underneath. Pocket placement is good for climbing, but there are no side pockets at the hip level, which can be a bit annoying sometimes. Other than that, it's awesome - kind of like the Porsche or Steinway of technical shells.
