The Arc'teryx Theta AR is the most expensive jacket in this review with a price tag of £625.00, but it is also the most heavily featured. In many ways it is very similar to the Arc'teryx Beta AR, but has a much lower hem line that protects better against snow while skiing. The Theta also has an extra mid-back draw cord to snug up the empty space and includes a sleeve pocket and larger interior pocket. It has a GORE-TEX Pro membrane paired with a combination of 80 denier and 40 denier fabrics that make it like a bomb shelter when it comes to weather protection. If you want the single most durable jacket in this review, then look no further.


If you intend to live or work in the gnarliest of weather and want a jacket that can protect you from those hard elements for years to come, there is no better jacket than the Theta AR. Its reinforced GORE-TEX Pro, combined with the highest quality construction, ensures that this will be among the longest lasting of your outdoor garments. It is designed to be versatile and functional for all outdoor activities, none will live up to the moniker of "storm shelter" quite like this one will.


Arc'teryx describes this jacket as a "storm shelter," and we would have to agree. Weather protection is the forte of the Theta AR. In addition to having the highest quality membrane combined with the burliest face fabrics in our review, what sets this jacket apart is the storm hood and high collar. The collar, like the one on the Beta AR, is the comfiest of any we reviewed, making it by far the easiest of any jacket to keep fully zipped up, all the time, with no discomfort or mobility restrictions. The Theta AR features the lowest, and therefore most protective, hemline of any jacket, and like all Arc'teryx jackets, the Velcro quality on the wrist enclosures was top notch. (It's worth noting here that the Beta AR uses the same membrane/face fabric combo as the Theta.)


The storm hood works with a helmet. Its four draw strings really help you hone in on the perfect fit. Depending on how tight you cranked it down, the hood either gripped the head and helmet, or let it move freely inside, but regardless, never have an issue with impaired visibility.


When tested, the Theta AR was found to be not as hot as most others while running on the treadmill. Likewise, there was no moisture inside the jacket after the test, proving that it is highly breathable. Just in case conditions are not right for breathability, Arc'teryx also included pit zips under the arms in this model for extra venting.
