Arc'teryx (stylized ɅRC'TERYX) is an outdoor clothing and sporting goods company founded in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in 1989. The name and logo of Arc'teryx refer to the Archaeopteryx, the earliest known bird. The logo is based on the "Berlin specimen" of the bird, the most complete skeleton to date.
Needing a larger manufacturing space, the company moved its headquarters to Burnaby, British Columbia, in 1999. In 2005, the Arc'teryx head office moved back across the Burrard Inlet to North Vancouver. Their products are usually associated with climbing, skiing, snowboarding, backpacking, and hiking-related activities.
Originally named Rock Solid by founders Dave Lane and Jeremy Guard, the company's first line of products were climbing gear. Using a heat laminate (thermolamination) technology, the partners designed and marketed the Vapor harness, which would become the company's most popular item. In the second year of operations, after a series of relocations and staff additions, Arc'teryx released the Bora backpack using the same Vapor technology. In 1996, after obtaining a license from W. L. Gore & Associates for use of the Gore-Tex fabric, the company adapted it for its new line of outdoor technical apparel. Top selling items in their clothing line include the Theta AR and Gamma MX jackets. Over the years Arc'teryx' designs have won a number of awards from Backpacker, Outside, Climbing, Men's Journal, and Powder magazines.

I also take some time to explain why you might want a laminated hardshell over other jacket options.
A big question we hear from people is the price point on Arc'Teryx products. Here's David Kramer, an expert, talking about why the price is right! Want more info on Arc'Teryx products? Visit us today! http://bit.ly/2p1EAr3
Paul McSorely, Tony Richardson, Joshua Lavigne and Crosby Johnston travel to the remote Baffin Island with the goal of a first ascent of the North Face of the Beluga Spire. Prior to even leaving for the expedition their local Clyde River guide, Levi suggested they not even make the journey as they were hitting the tail end of the preferred, but short summer season. The Beluga Spire is located in the Walker Arm of the Sam Ford Fiord, about 160km boat ride from the village of Clyde River NU. After two attempts of battling sea ice, turning a 6 hour boat ride into 12 hours, they landed at the toe of the Broad Peak glacier and bid farewell to their guide team...

Arc'teryx Athletes Jason Kruk and Marc-Andre Leclerc travel from Squamish, Canada to El Chalten, Argentina to climb on the legendary spires of the Torre massif. To climb well in the mountains of Patagonia one must have goals beyond the summits themselves. The only guarantees in these harsh peaks are of dynamic conditions and typically horrendous weather.
