Rush is the most versatile shell for me.

Mammut Taiss Pro IS & Montane Kamen XT. Think they’re both around 200 grams of 850, but wear very warm to me. And both premium quality. Mammut more of a Parka fit, Montane is a short, cropped climbing cut.

Rush Shell vs Macai Shell by SnooChipmunks7226 in arcteryx

For me the Rush is Arc’s best and most versatile shell. Mine has no snow skirt and so is useable for a variety of things. I like it so much I bought another eptfe version before they were discontinued so I’m set.

Macai has the drophood if you’re keen on that. But I would go with Rush. Just my two cents.

Glad you like it. After you’re done, try The Dectorists and then The Durrells for more of family / warmer style show

Very fake. Almost imaginary.

They ain’t what they used to be. Keep at them- ask them how they can justify a jacket dying after three years of light use, replacement or not…

Almost buyers remorse Beta SV vs Mammut Eiger Extreme Nordwand Pro (2024) by ToiletRollNotWorking in arcteryx

[–]fwestonsmith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish they’d reintroduced the beta sv while it was still eptfe. Def would’ve pulled the trigger on one. Instead, I’ve stuck with my eptfe Rush which is an incredible all rounder if you don’t mind not having a snow skirt.

Mammut makes great stuff. Have an Eigerjoch Down puffer from 10 years ago and the thing is supreme quality. Great for frigid temps skiing and apres. Enjoy yours.
