Arc’teryx, a high-end Canadian brand specializing in outdoor apparel, has once again teamed up with Japanese fashion label BEAMS to launch a new Fall/Winter 2022 collection titled 'Dimensions.' The concise capsule has been designed specifically to celebrate BEAMS' 25th anniversary and will be the first collaboration between the two labels to ever be released outside of the Japanese market.
The collection includes four pieces: the Beta Jacket, the Mantis 26 Backpack (26 L), the Mantis 1 Waistpack (1.5 L), and the Mantis 2 Waistpack (2.5 L). All of the items feature the same color-block design scheme and color combinations, which include a mix of black, white, grey, and beige. A definite standout, the Beta Jacket comes with a double-zipper design, a GORE-TEX shell, gold embroidery on its sleeves, and a big bird Arc'teryx logo on the chest.
