Colorful Co-Branded Outerwear

This Gore-Tex Jacket Features the Sweet Spirit of Collaboration

— October 31, 2014 — Fashion
Boston-based retailer Concepts partnered with Arc’teryx, an outerwear label hailing from Canada, to create this colorful GORE-TEX jacket.

The high-tech fabric, featuring Paclite product technology, is both water and wind-proof, making it the perfect choice to brave the elements this winter. Despite its intense protection and durability, the garment is specifically engineered to be breathable, wearable and comfortable.

Beyond the construction details, the design of the jacket is bright and animated, banishing winter woes with a determined, colorful cheer. The Beta SL Jacket, which also features a 3m reflective Concept emblem on the arm, will be available during the Fall/Winter 2014 season. Stay warm and look great this winter in this great option by Concepts and Arc’teryx.
