Arc'teryx Seeker Comp Softshell Jacket - Men's



Seeker Comp city review: Helsinki, FINLAND
Hello Gearheads!! I got my Seeker Comp on October 20th - a cold, windy & rainy day here in Helsinki. Like the Gamma MX no water got through what so ever. I really like the Sidewinder zip and how it covers my chin with space for a neck gaiter. I didn't feel any wind or any dampness... I was wearing a t-shirt and a sweat jacket under the Seeker Comp. The temperature was 5C, but it felt like -1C with the wind chill. My body temperature was just right - no overheating or cooling whatsoever. The next day the rain and wind were more intense. I wore Arc’teryx Ether Crew SS and Patagonia R1 Pullover under the Seeker Comp. Once again I was very comfortable and didn't overheat. The wind chill factor was at -2C, and the rain was coming down at a steady clip. The Seeker Comp does breathe very well... like the Gamma MX. Arc’teryx says the jacket is made for the backcountry. I think if you layer properly, it will be great inbounds as well. The RX (prescription) would be a) your base layer and b) a mid layer like Patagonia R2 or Arc’teryx RHO Top for cold winter days. You would use a mid layer like Patagonia R1 or microfleece on a warm spring day. I love this jacket already! I can't wait to ski with it. I will post an on slope review after I go skiing with the Seeker Comp. Move over Gamma MX. Seeker Comp is the BMOC now.


Amazing
I got one of these, in grey, about a month ago -- and took it to Squaw Valley for a four-day trip. A storm socked in the mountain for four days, with rain halfway up. While I stayed above the snow/rain line the whole time, I remained super-dry. By the end of each of the first three days, being in the wet snow conditions had soaked my Garmont gloves, and gotten a bit into my Ride pants. The Seeker Comp -- still beading, not an inch of soak-thru on the whole of the jacket. A kid working at a shop at the base of the mountain was stunned when I came in on the third day -- "you're dry?!?!!" Add on the angled zipper (no chafing lips and chin), the super-cool look (slim cut and stylish), the helmet-friendly hood...this has got to be one of the best jackets out there. P.S. on the fourth day the skies cleared and it was a three-foot fresh-tracks Monday.


On Slope review: March 19, Whistler, BC
Hello gearheads! I put the "Seeker Comp" through a day in hell in Whistler. Their freezing level that day was 1200m - raining below, snowing above that level with 80km winds. I wore an Arc'teryx Ether Crew SS shirt as a base layer and Patagonia R1 fleece pants and pullover top... that was all under the "Seeker Comp". The jacket withstood EVERYTHING the weather threw at it! No water got through at all! Honestly, I really needed a Gamma SV vest on top of the Patagonia R1, because I did get slightly cold on the upper part of the Red Chair where U are exposed BIG TIME to the wind. The skiing that day was phenomenal - over 40cms of powder! I didn't overheat when skiing through the powder and the trees in Franz's Meadow and V.D. Chutes. The jacket breathes well as I found out going through the bumps on "Lower McConkeys" in Harmony Bowl. In conclusion, the "Seeker Comp" withstood Whistler's worst, but on days like these U would be better off wearing a Sidewinder SV - any other day is Seeker Comp day!
