Notoriously Innovative. Authentically Arc’teryx
Arc’teryx gear is athlete-tested in the big mountains and all conditions.
Since their inception, Arc’teryx has been a driving force of innovation in their industry. That’s why their name has become synonymous with obsessive design. Every detail matters in extreme conditions, and they;re a brand built for the mountains.
Design details which set Arc’teryx apart here a few key innovations that set them apart:
Hadron™ - Real tough, real light, mountain ready
Redefining the standard of superlight durability, our revolutionary Hadron™ fabric lets you take a load off — after all, it’s as tough as fabric twice its weight. In the mountains, weight reigns supreme, every ounce counts and durability matters. Watching their athletes evolve and seeing a need to create something light, packable and incredibly durable, Arc’teryx created a new innovation — ground up.
Arc’teryx to the core, Hadron™ is a revolution in design and was a success straight out of the gate — one of their first athlete samples is still in use today (5-years later). They dare you to wear it out.
You don’t have to be a scientist to understand the importance of lightweight and durable.…But for those of you who like to tech out: Hadron™ fabric is made by weaving an impossibly fine-gauge liquid crystal polymer (material with exceptional mechanical strength) into already durable ripstop (reinforced gridded nylon) to create best-in-class abrasion resistance that’s as durable as fabric twice its weight.
The Stormhood™ - Protection with a clear view
One of the most essential features is also the hardest to achieve. There are invisible layers of ingenuity and Arc’teryx DNA hiding beneath that seemingly simple StormHood™.
The StormHood™. Is a signature detail in many of Arc’teryx’ products. Designed with the right combination of tailoring, materials and construction.
The compression system works in conjunction with a stovepipe shape to do two crucial things: first lock the hood into position, and allow your head to twist and turn without obstructing your view.
All those meticulously designed patterns and multi-layer construction need something to give it shape. The laminated brim must stay intact and not collapse, crush or crease when being compressed, and still bounce back after being packed.
Arc’teryx will be located on Ground Level next to the Lego® Certified Store at Canberra Centre. Stay up to date on the latest Arc’teryx launch details alongside other events and offers HERE.
