Innovation is in the blood of this Canadian company and revolutionary ideas evolving in the Arc’teryx think-tank often become outdoor industry design standards in the years that follow. Laminated no-sew technology, laser cutting of fabrics, water resistant zippers, softshell, micro-taping etc etc – all were Arc’teryx innovations. Arc’teryx are key partners in the launch of the new GORE-TEX Pro Shell fabric, so if you question the status quo and ache to own the best, you’ll love this brand!
