The Arcteryx Gamma MX Hoody is a tough durable softshell delivering wind resistance and breathability while allowing you to move freely. This combination makes this the perfect softshell for alpinism and ski touring, particularly on days where you're going to be working hard.

Fortis 2.0 fabric has been used through out the MX Hoody. The stretch woven nylon face fabric has been laminated to a brushed polyester backer allowing for excellent breathability and air permeability. The DWR treated face fabric ensures snow and moisture is easily shed, allowing you to keep your hardshell in your pack for only the worst weather. Four-way stretch along with the relaxed fit ensures your comfort as you move on the mountain, and the helmet compatible hood can easily be pulled up for additional protection from the elements.

Reviewer: Duncan Rutherford, London   (22-4-2012)

I used to have the non-hooded version of this jacket. It was superb and served me well for 8 years, showing the quality of Arc'teryx kit. After it gave up the ghost I decided to replace it with the hoody version.

Again, the quality is excellent, as is the fit. I look forward to many years of good use from it!

Reviewer: David,   (6-4-2012)

I am 6'13'' and 187lbs more athletic than average built with long hands and purchased Large.

This jacket is by far the best soft shell I have ever bought. Price is high but on sale acceptable. It is all that it is advertised. Dries fast, keeps me warm, dry and block the wind pretty well, comfortable fit, plenty of storage space, and it is tough. There is insulation but not heavy so this makes it excellent for layering.

Design is perfect and fit just as it should. Great build quality, athletic fit, technically very functional, excellent range of motion, hood has amazing volume, pockets are well positioned and easy to use but it would be nice if there were internal zippered pocket as well, provides excellent balance of mobility, breathability, warmth, weight, wind and water resistance.

It could be a bit longer in the front but the back drops down below my waist to cover butt. Sleeve length fit great but it has very snug wrist and it can be annoying to get over a watch when taking the jacket off.

Sheds light rain and snow amazingly. Not a weatherproof piece, but not advertised as such either. I would still recommend hardshell for anything more than light precipitation or moderate winds though.

It has good amount of stretchiness what makes it extremely comfortable and it breathes well considering that it has no pit-zip vents. The lack pit-zips does make it a little stuffy in hotter conditions but otherwise this is a good buy overall. It could breath better if it have some zip vents under the armpits.

Excellent service and really fast delivery.

Reviewer: Andrew Cadwallader, Chorley   (26-3-2012)

After quite some deliberating over the price I finally took the plunge, and I honsetly think this is my best purchase yet, it has a quality like no other soft shell I have tried. I have used it several times now and ticks every box, the chest pockets are positioned perfectly for when carrying a rucksack, the fit is generous but not excessive it has excellent breathability and overall screams quality as you would expect from an Arcteryx product, the only down side is it was too hot to wear it this weekend.
