Arcteryx Women's Sentinel AR Jacket

The Sentinel is a full-on no-holds-barred back country ski touring and freeride jacket built for big mountain days. Gore-Tex 3-layer fabric is totally waterproof and highly breathable to boot, plus the light flannel backer adds a bit of warmth and cuts out the rustling effect of typical hard-shell jackets. Open the pit zips wide when ascending to keep your temperature under control then zip up for the descents. Micro taped seams keep melting snow out and reduce bulk over standard taping to save weight and increase flexibility. Large cuffs make an easy fit with your glove and can be cinched easily with the velcro fastener. Don't worry about long days in tough conditions - the Sentinel is built to last with a tough face fabric so scrapes against rock or blizzard conditions won't phase it.

The Sentinel is cut to offer incredible freedom-of-movement. Articulated elbows and underarms allows un-paralleled movement so there's no restrictions on your skiing. The built-in powder skirt features an elastic gripper to keep it in place and stretch panel to prevent riding up. If you pair with the Sentinel AR pants you can use the Slide 'n' Loc system to connect the two garments to make a single snow-proof unit.

For heading off piste, for big touring days and for tough lines at the end of long traverses, the Sentinel is the jacket of choice.
