Arc'teryx Men's Sabre Jacket

Storm days at the resort are where the Arc'teryx Sabre Jacket Print earns its place. Built on a three-layer waterproof shell with a flannel backer for light warmth, it delivers the same technical reliability as the solid-color Sabre in the distinctive Grottoflage graphic. Pit zips, a StormHood, and a powder skirt complete a feature set that punches well above its aesthetic ambitions; this is a shell that happens to look good, not a fashion piece that happens to be waterproof.

Why we like it:

The Grottoflage print is one of the better camo patterns in ski outerwear; specific enough to have a point of view, restrained enough that it doesn't read as costume. It's the kind of colorway that works in the lift line and on the skin track without looking out of place in either direction.

Features and Functions:

Arc'teryx builds the Sabre Jacket Print on N70p-X fabric: a three-layer GORE-TEX ePE shell with a flannel backer that provides light thermal comfort without adding insulation bulk. A PFAS-free DWR finish handles surface moisture. The helmet-compatible StormHood adjusts independently and provides full coverage in heavy snow without restricting peripheral vision. Full-length pit zips run the underarm for rapid ventilation when conditions warm or output spikes. Hand pockets, an internal security pocket, two internal dump pockets, and a sleeve pocket for RFID passes cover all storage needs. An integrated powder skirt seals against the bib, and an embedded RECCO reflector supports search and rescue operations.

Fit and Sizing:

Regular fit with a 79cm center-back length, cut with room for a midlayer underneath. Articulated patterning through the shoulders and elbows keeps the jacket tracking with you on hard carving runs. True to size.

Bottom Line:

The Sabre Jacket Print gives resort skiers the same technical shell performance as the standard Sabre in a graphic colorway built to pair with the Sabre Pant Print. It's the choice for skiers who want a complete, visually cohesive kit without giving up any on-mountain credibility.
