What is the Zeta SL?

The Zeta SL from Arc'teryx is a great lightweight, waterproof that excels in warmer conditions, or when you're moving fast. The Gore-tex Paclite Plus material feels great next to skin and also breathes exceptionally well helping to keep you comfortable in even in warmer conditions. Due to it's weight and pack size, the Zeta SL works well as a just-in-case shell that you can stash in your pack all day, but is also just as suited to long, wet, mountain days.

What is the Zeta SL made of?

It's incredible weight and pack size is predominantly down to the use of Gore-tex Paclite Plus. Unlike previous generations of Paclite, Paclite Plus is incredibly comfortable and doesn't stick to your skin when you get wet - I can confirm this, I tested it out in person. It's a 2 layer construction that not only offers great breathability but also the reliable durability of Gore-Tex in torrential downpours.

What are the features?

All of the features of the Zeta SL have been tailored to keep as much water out as possible - The Stormhood, whilst not helmet compatible, sits snug to your head to eliminate excess material. The hood also features a halo adjuster so you can synch the hood so it sits snugger around your head in strong winds. The Watertight front zip, velcro adjustable cuffs and the drawcord around the hem ensures you can really seal out the elements when the weather takes a turn for the worst. There are also two external hand pockets for extra storage that sit out of the way of the rucksack hip belt line, so whatever is in your pockets doesn't dig in to your hips.

How does the Zeta SL fit?

The Zeta SL fits into Arcteryx's 'Trim Fit' fit block which means that is tailored to fit closer in the waist and also eliminates excess material that may flap around in strong winds. The Zeta SL also has a drop hem which helps to protect your lower back when scrambling or bending over. 

Where does the Zeta SL fit in the layering system?

The Zeta SL is primarily designed as an outer shell, more commonly referred to as a hard shell; which means it works well to protect you from strong winds on cold days, right up to torrential downpours.

Summary

The Zeta SL truly excels as a hill walking piece in the unpredictable UK weather; but, due to it's next to skin comfort and light weight, also works just as well as an emergency shell as it does an all day mountain piece.

Care and maintenance

To keep your outdoor clothing and equipment in tip top condition and performing to its maximum we recommend the use of Nikwax products. We have been using Nikwax products since day one (26th March 1986) and have found them to be totally reliable, dependable and effective. Today’s Nikwax treatments contain environmentally friendly elastic water-repellent polymers that bond to fabric fibres, leaving the spaces between open and breathable. These stretchy polymers are able to stretch and move with the fabric so they stay put for longer and work better.

Nikwax treatments will not change the look or feel of the fabric and they are all water based, environmentally safe, non-flammable and contain no nasty Fluorocarbons. Nikwax products can be used to clean, re-proof and revitalise all your outdoor technical clothing and equipment.

Waterproof breathable clothing has a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish applied to the face fabric during the manufacturing process. The DWR forces water to bead up and roll off the surface therefore preventing the fabric from absorbing moisture. If the outside of your jacket is soaked in a layer of cold water, the warm damp air within can’t escape and will condense on the inside. This makes the jacket feel cold clammy and can make you think that it’s leaking. The DWR finish is not permanent and needs to be maintained and revitalised to optimise performance.

This three layer waterproof jacket should be cleaned regularly with Nikwax Tech Wash; I wash my jacket about once a month, or more often if it gets really filthy. Regular washing with Tech Wash will maintain the DWR for longer and remove salts and oils that can contaminate the fabric, and it will keep your lovely jacket clean and smelling fresh. Washing can be done in a machine according to the manufacturers care guidelines (on the internal label). First clean out any detergent and conditioner residue from the machine dispenser and then add the required amount of Tech Wash and away you go. Hand washing is also suitable but be sure to rinse the garment well.

When you notice that rain/water is no longer beading up and rolling off it’s time to re-proof. Nikwax TX Direct will re-instate a long lasting DWR to completely rejuvenate your jacket. Re-proofing can also be done in the machine once a garment has been washed. Just add the TX-Direct and use the same programme you used for washing. You can also use the spray-on product on a damp garment that has just been washed.

You wouldn’t buy a Ferrari and never have it serviced, so make sure you regularly wash and re-proof your quality kit.
