Am I misunderstanding as I thought that the Arc'Teryx range was:LT - lightweightAR - all roundSV - severeAnd, I thought that would make the AR less thick than the SV? I have the AR and it's great. I don't do any winter climbing but I do live in Lancashire and the weather is continuously shit.
Since you're willing to spend top dollar for the right jacket, it's worth remembering that 100% of Patagonia's profits now go to climate change charities and they generally make good kit.

I briefly owned a Nanopuff which are to 2020s US climbers as Rab duvets were to Sheffield boulders in the 00s. Wasn't impressed with the boxy cut or the insulation and quickly sold it on. Are any of their other offerings much better?
