Built for resort skiing and slackcountry exploration, the Sabre AR takes the advanced technologies and meticulous design common to all Arc'teryx shells and incorporates snow-specific features. Long underarm vents let you dump heat during high energy chair laps and bootpacks, while the roomy fit accommodates multiple layers for cold descents. A warm flannel backer provides additional insulation against icy blasts on the chairlift. A fully adjustable storm hood, drawcord hem and cuff adjusters offer complete pretection from the elements, and the front zip, underarm vents and pockets all feature water-resistant zippers. The overall build quality is top-notch, with tight seam tolerances and articulated construction that accommodates any move you need to make.
