Would the gamma lt be a good everyday rain jacket for living in Texas? I don’t want something like a north face parka that’s gonna make me look like I’m a parking attendant
gamma lt would probably be fine the Zeta SL would be a proper rain shell though

i dont know how often it rains in texas but i can tell you the gamma is super durable meant for light rain, high energy activity like climbing. a beta lt or beta ar would probably be better suited for dogwalking or commuting than the zeta sl. zeta sl has goretex paclite which actually has the same water resistance as goretex pro but is less durable as its intended to be an emergency shell
heres a nice flowchart from the arcteryx reddit:
btw this only applies for this season cuz i think the beta ar / lt changed in fw 2020ish
actually im just thinkng about it right now goretex pro might be overkill maybe just 3l or 2l but that depends on how often it rains where youre at

Thanks for your info yeah I just need a everyday rain jacket I can put on to walk to the car or store and work. I had the squamish hoody but that was too thin and felt like it wouldn’t keep me dry
how do you guys feel about this grey colour? (Zeta SL)
I wanted it in a Dark green but i cant find it anywhere in my size and i start work in 2 weeks so i need one asap
they also got a black but idk about that

Why do you need it that fast (only asking because settling on clothing tends to come back to bite me)
But besides that, I think it's a strong shade of grey and should pair well with most colors

Mainly because I do genuinely need a coat for rain
My new job is in a different city so I’ll have a lot walking to and from the train station
It rains quite often where I am, so I need one hopefully before I start

I hear you
If that green isn't a must, I'd run with the grey then

hi sorry for late reply i'd probably say to get a zeta lt which does not have paclite
also be aware the zeta line has slim fit compared to beta or alpha so id be a bit harder to layer

Just curious why is everyone not recommending the gamma? What’s the purpose for that jacket?

this was correct with the system A stuff, could really be anything but zeta would be hard
its not safe for my wallet
these will probably hold value so were good
still scared to drop a rack on a jacket tho
