It’s hard to believe that something you can hold in your palm can offer such powerful weather protection. But by now we shouldn’t be surprised by such tireless innovation from Arc’teryx. The new women’s Nuclei FL is a versatile jacket sparked by the repeated demands of the Arc’teryx athletes and designed specifically by women for women.

It is lighter, warmer, stronger, and offers outstanding thermal performance for remarkably little weight. The Arato 10D fabric is windproof and durable, Coreloft insulation is lightweight, efficient and resilient, and a helmet-compatible StormHood gives additional warmth.

This jacket is ideal as part of a layering system or as a standalone in cool temps. If you’re climbing or scrambling in cool weather, it serves as a standalone jacket. We also used it for high-output winter activities—XC skiing and snowshoeing—as part of a layering system.

Though it is windproof and water-resistant, on a cold/windy winter day, or in heavy rain, you will want a hardshell overtop. (And for true frigid temps, it won’t replace the warmer Fission SV, for example.) But for something so portable, you won’t find better protection anywhere. Men’s version here.

Adventures like this one require an inspiring team. @timemmett is a longtime friend, adventure partner and extraordinary human; an explorer, pro climber, surfer, freediver—you name it. @luca.freediver is an incredibly talented freediver, fresh off breaking the Canadian national freediving record (85 metres). The fourth man on the team, @brianhockenstein, is a filmmaker and multi-talented snowboarder always ready to jump into the fray and capture the magic. - words Jimmy Martinello. #Linkinbio to learn more!
We came in search of the connection of the human spirit to both art and adventure, whether climbing from the depths of moulins and ice caves, breaking through ice while paddleboarding fjords, climbing icebergs, freediving between tectonic plates or surfing cold waves.
A thousand and one things could have gone wrong, but she made it to the top:  @mariepier.desharnais is the first Quebecois woman to climb K2.
Mountain Life is a proud member of the @printreleaf_ community. So far we've offset our print by having 1,737 trees reforested since joining in 2019! 🌲

In 1986 @beverlyglenncopeland recorded Keyboard Fantasies using an Atari computer, a keyboard and a drum machine. After releasing it on cassette and selling maybe 50 copies, he went back to writing for Sesame Street and making the odd guest appearance on Mr. Dressup. In 2015, a cassette made its way to Japanese collector Ryota Masuko, a record store owner with a big online presence, who quickly bought, and then sold, all the Keyboard Fantasies cassettes he could find. Record labels worldwide lined up to reissue the hidden gem on vinyl.
