If I buy that black Arc'Teryx jacket, the red sallos will be promoted straight back into the first team. But its unlikely now. I am having a second honeymoon with my Cross jacket.


I wouldn't personally buy an Arc'Teryx jacket, they have a bad reputation or a good reputation according to some. The good reputation is for great customer service when the garment falls apart and they replace it which I take to be bad. Mammut, Marmot, Haglöf, Patagonia, Rab amongst others have a good reputation for lasting long enough that you're fed up of them.

this seasons colour is white obviously )

You do see a lot of "locals" wearing Mammut and there has to be something in that.

Haglofs seems similar to Arcteryx and maybe not so dreary...

The thing is theres this one Arc'Teryx jacket I really really like the look of, the Beta AR, but I cant bring myself to pay the asking price for it.

I had also seen a really nice Haglofs insulated jacket, and actually spoke to a guy at the Chill Factor e who was wearing the very same one, he said its the best jacket hes ever had! Looks really nice:

that's a Spitz, not insulated though, I don't know Haglöf do any lined jackets excepting down obviously, it's mostly alpine gear and we'd not really bother:

Haglöfs trousers as well, Omni2's I think with some base and md layer Haglöfs gear hidden underneath. A cold day as I recall and -10 or -20 at that height IIRC.
