ARC'TERYX

Arc’teryx was founded in 1989 near Vancouver, Canada, and takes its name from Archaeopteryx, the first reptile to evolve flight. Based in the Coast Mountains where its gear is designed and tested, the brand is known for minimal design, precise patterning and exacting construction standards. One of GORE-TEX’s leading partners, its hardshells have long been a benchmark in outdoor equipment — and in recent years, a staple of technical fashion.
