Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

Arcteryx Mens Beta SL Pant Black

Season:Sale

Brand:Arcteryx

Code:23145-BLA-

What is the Beta SL Pant?

The Beta SL pant from Arcteryx is a lightweight, protective waterproof shell trouser that combines two different Gore-Tex constructions to give you the optimum trouser for trekking and backpacking in the mountains.  It is loaded with all the features and impressive tech you'd expect from Arcteryx, yet is light and packable enough to be stashed in your rucksack all day just in case the weather changes.

What is the Beta SL made of?

It's incredible weight and pack size is predominantly down to the use of 2L Gore-tex Paclite Plus. Paclite Plus is incredibly comfortable, soft to the touch 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. These pants also feature 3-layer Gore-tex reinforcements in the high wear areas for extra durability and protection when scrambling or using crampons.

What are the features?

The Beta SL pants feature full-length side zippers which make the pants easy to throw on when the weather changes quickly, but also provide rapid ventilation when you start to work up a sweat. The trousers also have low profile external waist adjusters that don't rub or dig in under a hip belt or harness. Moving down, the trousers feature bottom hem lace hooks that accommodate hiking boots and low profile alpine boots. The instep of the trousers is reinforced to provide extra durability when scrambling or using crampons. 

How does the Beta SL fit?

The Beta SL Pants sit in Arcteryx's 'Regular fit' fit block which means that they will follow the shape of your legs without hugging them, offering excellent range of motion without being restrictive. They will also still be able to comfortably accommodate a layer or two underneath. 

Where do the Beta SL pants fit in the layering system?

The Beta SL Pants are 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 Beta SL Hybrid is an excellent piece for fast and light adventures in the mountains; whether the weather turns on a long scramble, or as an all-day piece in changeable, chilly conditions - the Beta SL will keep you protected. It also weighs next to nothing and packs down nice and small so you can stash it in your pack on those days when you're not really sure what the weather is going to do.

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.
