Made from wind-resistant and lightweight Polartec Power Shield fabric.
The Gamma MX Jacket features a new lightweight Polartec Power Shield fabric in a trim cut. It's isn't waterproof like other Ascent Outerwear, but it offers an amazing warmth-to-weight ratio in a breathable, wind-resistant package. Unlike most conventional fleece, Polartec Power Shield fabric is exceptionally resilient to wear and won't snag like other fabric designs. The Gamma MX is suitable for mountaineering or ice climbing under blue bird skies and it's practically bulletproof when layered beneath a waterproof, breathable shell like the Arc'teryx Theta AR Jacket or the Beta AR Jacket. If you're into gear and gadgets, you'll appreciate the five storage pockets--more carrying capacity than most Ascent outerwear--including a sleeve radio pocket. Interior wind flaps and an adjustable hem drawcord help seal out cool breezes.

Gamma MX
I love this jacket. It fits great over my Patagonia micro puff jacket. I am 6'5 and 185 pounds and the large is a perfect fit for me.
Perfect Midlayer
Excellent midlayer beneath Pro Shell Goretex . Breathes well ,Warm ,Light Weight,and Moves Freely. Functions well as stand alone also.Performed perfectly on Mountain Back-Packing trip in 19 degree weather.
lovely jacket
I love this jacket. Its super-functional and warm despite being really lightweight. I use it as a middle layer for snowboarding along with a base layer and an Arc'teryx shell and I'm comfortable in temps from the upper teens through upper 30's.
Great Softshell
Fits perfect - I am 6' 2", 185 lbs and the large is just right. Like the stretch which keeps it from riding up when reaching for my next pole plant or cold one. Good light jacket for spring skiing.
Great Jacket
Fits really well. I'm 6"5" and skinny with long arms (usually need 36" sleeve length). I got the L and it wasn't baggy at all and the sleeves were perfect. The only thing is that the vermillion color is more orangey in color than it appears online.. like a dark rust color.
