The Spring/Summer 2019 edition of the Arc'teryx Veilance collection does not disappoint with regard to its refined silhouettes and high-performing fabrics. The outdoor brand really pushed its boundaries in the development of this installment of luxury menswear. As a result, the 2019 Arc'teryx Veilance collection "is being pegged as the brand's most versatile and adaptive range to date," according to Highsnobiety.
While the silhouettes have a tailored fit and an earthy color palette that allows them to be worn for both formal and casual occasions, the ultra-responsive fabrics protect the consumer from weather-related phenomena and keep them comfortable.
As per usual, the Arc'teryx Veilance collection makes use of the incredibly adaptive fabrics of GORE-TEX and tweaks them to enhance the technical aspects of each piece.
