How I Use the Arc'teryx Gamma SL Hoody
- Hiking: I specifically purchased this Arc'teryx Jacket to hike the PNW in. Its breathability keeps me cool, and its stretchy fabric does not restrict my movement. The DWR coating repels light rain if it falls, and the hood shields against wind. It's a perfect piece for cool to mild conditions.
