Since its inception in the Coast Mountains of B.C. in 1989, Arc’teryx has remained a relentless force of innovation.
In the extreme environment of the mountains, small but crucial details drive performance—from micro seam fabric technology, to articulated fit garments, to WaterTight zippers (to name just a few Arc’teryx innovations).
Intimate and longstanding knowledge of the mountains drives this legendary Arc’teryx obsessive design. This is a brand conceived, born, tested, built and rebuilt in the mountains.
In this spirit, Arc’teryx invites Vancouverites to find fresh inspiration with an experiential launch event for the Winter 2022 collection.
All-encompassing projections and sonic dreamscapes (curated by Montreal’s Moment Factory) come together in a multi-sensory event, seamlessly transporting guests into the heart of the Coast Mountains. Visitors can preview gear while joining like-minded snow-seekers along for the ride.
