Arcteryx Rush Jacket

The Rush jacket is built for skiers by skiers. This baby is well thought out and its going to be one of your favorite pieces of ski gear. Other shells like the Beta AR lack the specific ski features that the Rush comes standard with. Any serious free rider is going to appreciate the durable Gore-tex Pro fabric, powder skirt, RFID pass pocket, dump all goggle pocket, and ski helmet hood. The fit of this jacket runs true to size, but it is designed with winter layering in mind. Don’t be surprised if it fits a bit loosely when you try it on over a tee shirt. The Rush is a little longer cut than the Beta AR which is great when the wind starts to blow on the chairlift. We really like the StormHood on days when the wind is blowing too. You might even leave your face mask at home once you zip into this thing with your helmet on. The cohesive hood adjusters paired with a laminated brim will keep the weather out without impairing your vision. Don’t be afraid to go for it, the Rush jacket one of the sickest shells going.
