Durable, packable, synthetic fiber-insulated and light GORE-TEX® INFINIUM™ jacket for windproof warmth during rest periods and descents in the backcountry.
The Rush Insulated Jacket M by Arc'teryx is a light but warm hardshell jacket made from durable, two-layer GORE-TEX® INFINFIUM. Light rain and snow don't stand a chance against this innovative surface. The surface of the jackets consists of the innovative GORE membrane, which allows water to simply roll off. The absence of a textile outer material prevents water from being absorbed, so that the jacket remains wonderfully light and ensures a pleasantly warm feeling. The unique surface also serves as a protective shield against the wind, so that cool air can't harm you - even when you take a break. It is reinforced with ultra-light Hadron LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer Ripstop) outer fabric, offering abrasion resistance that rivals fabrics twice its weight. Synthetic Climashield PRISM fibers are used as an insulating layer. The hardshell jacket also scores points with a close-fitting hood, adjustable cuffs and a hem that keeps out the cold. The Rush Insulated has two hand warmer pockets and two inside pockets for gloves and other items. The ideal jackets for freeride descents on shady north-facing slopes.
