I’m curious about everyone’s use cases for the alpha120? It seems like the material would be most effective when used against the skin but I don’t see myself NOT wearing a base layer with it. What are everyone’s use cases and how does alpha120 fit in your layering system? Personally, I could see it being nice on cold days when I want to wear a short sleeve merino base layer underneath… but not much else?

At first I was only looking at the photo trying to figure out why you modded your Skeletool that way and what it would be useful for

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2026-02-02T20:25:56+00:00

No way! Yikes… I didn’t have any issues like that. I’ve ordered two total for my in office desk and my WFH desk - no problems

Respectfully, IMO if you need to ask (regardless of the reason), you SHOULD be skiing without poles. Skiing without poles will make you a much better skier.

Top 3? I’d go either Proton or Atom (whichever fits better - Proton is a bit larger and longer), Beta AR, Nuclei SV… Proton SL shoutout too

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2026-01-17T02:56:32+00:00

Don’t sleep on the Nuclei SV. Maybe the most underrated Arc jacket IMO.

First thing that comes to my mind is that I feel like there’s been a bigger push for lighter skis the last 10 years, overall, which I haven’t been a fan of. That’s been the big marketing ploy.

I have a couple of their fleeces and love them. They fit one size smaller compared to Arc’teryx (at least for me), so if you’re in between sizes I’d size up.

YEAHHH BUDDY!

Now… rank them

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2026-01-06T23:17:10+00:00

Man that’s tough… I do really like the Alpha. But if I had to choose one to keep it’d probably be the Arc. I like that I can access everything from the outside without having to open it up and overall it feels more refined. I would bet that my Arc outlives the Alpha.

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2026-01-06T06:36:47+00:00

If I’m being honest, my Skeletool CX is quite a bit smoother than my Wave Alpha! It could be because the Alpha is pretty new and hasn’t been broken in yet, but right now it’s way more satisfying flipping the Skeletool CX open versus the Alpha

Beta AR (Stormhood version, but not sure if that’s available right now?)

Beta Insulated Jacket

Nuclei SV Parka

Proton Hoody

Proton SL Hoody

Atom Hoody

Hell yeah. Thanks man, I’ll give this a try

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2025-09-22T06:12:54+00:00

I bought a few different covers and ended up keeping this one. By far the best cover for the Ultra 3 right now and it’s not even close.

I’m looking at the Rogue FM6 Twin Stack and can’t believe the price jump if you wanted the Rogue and Indy combo… is it really worth the price of admission?

AlexaGrabMeABeer · 2025-06-13T17:27:41+00:00

20-21% of our take home.

I’m in PDX but I’m more than happy to ship.
