With summer in full swing, Arc’teryx has the perfect trail running and climbing gear to help you stay cool and comfortable during your outdoor escapades. Check out some of our favorite pieces below!

Cormac Tank

The go-to for hot days and high-output. Made for all things trail – mountain runs, long hikes, multi-day treks, days at the crag – the Cormac Tank ($70) delivers performance with comfort. Its recycled Phasic LT fabric wicks moisture, breathes and is treated for odor resistance. Merrow stitch seams minimize chafing, and the shoulders are patterned to ride comfortably under your pack.

Incendo Short 9”

Do whatever moves you – run, hike, scramble, jump in the lake. When impulse is your guide, the light, durable, longer-length Incendo ($100) is the short you want. Its comfortable, breathable, four-way stretch Fortius Air 50 nylon fabric is perfect for days in motion, and the fit is streamlined and patterned for freedom of movement. The elastic waist adjusts for a secure fit, the 9-inch inseam adds coverage, and open hand pockets for easy access.

Norvan Short 7”

With a minimalist design that frees you to travel fast and light, the versatile Norvan Short 7” ($90) is a go-to for mountain runs – and one you’ll grab for hikes and other high-output adventures. The Diem fabric, a light, breathable, 100%-recycled stretch polyester, dries fast and feels comfortable. A zippered centre-back pocket provides storage with minimal bounce, and the breathable elastic waist adjusts with a drawcord for a secure fit.

Gamma Utility Short 5”

Born from our legendary Gamma Short, Arc’teryx created the Gamma Utility Short ($120) with added pockets and a design refined for the trail. The Wee Burly Double Weave blends elastane with 100% recycled nylon to provide stretch and water repellency. A brushed backer adds soft comfort. Dual entry pockets in the front perform as hand and cargo pockets extend your storage options. Articulated patterning and the fabric’s stretch combine for unrestricted mobility.

Essent High Rise Utility Short 6”

The Essent High-Rise Utility Short ($90) is made for motion – run, roll, or hike. Its Chira nylon is breathable, abrasion resistant, wicks moisture, and has excellent stretch for serious comfort and freedom of movement. The wide waistband fits comfortably and has bounceless 360o stretch-mesh pocketing for gels and small essentials. Easy access thigh pockets add more storage. Minimized seams help eliminate chafe, and the streamlined fit is patterned for maximum mobility.

Soria Tank

Streamlined and made to move, the Soria ($60) is your tank for moving through the mountains. Comfortable and treated to wick moisture and resist odour, its nylon knit has great stretch for a secure, supportive fit, and freedom to move. The seam construction improves comfort and eliminates bulk, and the ergonomic patterning works with the stretch to elevate mobility.

Silene Tank

Mobility. Comfort. Technical performance. The Silene Tank ($80) brings it all together to meet climbers’ distinctive demands while delivering a versatility that handles a range of mountain activities. Phasic FL fabric is airy and light. Made with wicking yarns, it provides breathable comfort and the freedom of stretch. Seams are minimized to eliminate chafe, an antimicrobial treatment resists odour, and the design aligns with other performance pieces to create a system that’s ready for the rock.

Cranbrook Hat – Gender-Neutral

The Cranbook Hat ($85) is essential protection for backcountry adventures. A wide brim hat that protects your face, ears, and neck from the sun’s rays, the Cranbrook is ventilated for airflow and packs easily into your pockets for compact storage. The durable stretch twill is light and comfortable, and the knit mesh is made with wicking fibers. An antimicrobial finish keeps odours at bay, an adjustable cinch with a TPU buckle keeps it on your head.

Aerios Bucket Hat – Gender-Neutral

This bucket hat ($70) – Arc’teryx’s lightest, most packable shade hat ever – stashes easily in a pack or pocket, so it’s always there when you need it. The highly air-permeable Airshell stretch nylon material helps keep you cool and hugs your head for a comfortable fit, and a single-hand speed adjuster on the back secures it. The headband is super soft and breathable, and the brim is designed to hold its shape.

Calvus Cap – Gender-Neutral

The Calvus Cap ($55) is a versatile performance cap ready for summer adventure. The fit secures with a TPU strap and low-profile buckle for comfort across a range of sizes, and the brim has a foam insert to hold its shape without adding weight or bulk. Its technical polyester fabric is light and breathable, the Spacermesh™ band can help manage moisture to keep you comfortable when you’re moving fast on mountain trails, and the Delta™ knit back panels add ventilation and have an odor-resistant antimicrobial finish.
