A5 - Rig Softshell Jacket - NSR - Outlet

This my third piece of Beyond gear and I am still blown away at the quality and attention to detail in it's performance. I think the 2XL fit's like a standard 2XLL which is great for me! Can't recommend Beyond enough for outdoor gear you can rely on!

Got the A5 Rig jacket primarily as a mid season outer layer for hunting and mid layer for late season hunting in Montana. I got the XXL Regular size for a more loose fit to allow for layering. I normally wear a XL Long size in Beyond jackets (I got this jacket in the Outlet and longs were sold out). That said, the jacket sleeve length still works great with my 36” sleeve length. It is also not overly baggy (I am 6’7”, 225 pounds). The jacket is extremely well made (Berry Compliant), very durable, and does an excellent job of shedding light rain and mist. It is outstanding at blocking wind and as such is quite warm when used over proper base layers. I did remove all the Velcro patches as I have no use for them and this did not affect the jacket’s performance at all. Just another great, versatile Beyond product.

I work out in Alaska and this stuff is good. Base layer and the jacket and pants and I’m good till about 5F. It’s good for wearing kit and the Velcro on my belt doesn’t destroy the jacket fabric

Solid and soft as usual!

GOOD

I really like it, it's comfortable to wear and has good warmth retention

Ive had this jacket for two years and I absolutely love it! The jacket is great as a standalone or can be paired with a mid layer. It can run a bit hot especially doing dynamic movements do to lack of pit zips but that can be mitigated through propper layering.

I used it on my deployment to the middle east recently and it was a god send.

I've taken it down as low as mid 20s and had zero issues with the wind getting through. However if your gonna use past that than I would recommend pairing it with an insolation piece.

As far as fit goes the jacket is very form fitting maybe borderline restricting depending on your application but uncomfortable. Sleeves are a bit long but it helps if you plan on using it as a climbing jacket.

All in all it's a great piece of kit that goes every with me anytime the weather is gonna be remotely inclement.

Arms are too long and body a bit slim and I'm a pretty small guy. Other than fit, it a great product.

This is a great jacket for layering or athletic movement while hiking. It reminded me of the USMC Desert Combat Jacket but more appropriate with civilian attire.

This soft shell is really nice how ever I do wish the whole thing was grid fleece not just the neck
As well would be nice if it had pit zip vents but not a deal breaker

Runs small. I'm 6'3 200 lbs and a large long was skin tight. Also, as this is made to be worn over a uniform blouse, it would be smarter if they didn't put fleece inside the sleeves. Just makes it hard to put on. Still, this is a high quality jacket and a nice product.

I absolutely love this jacket! It reminds me alot of the Combat Desert Jacket I was issued in the USMC during the GWOT.

Outstanding!

Every bit the quality and construction of my old favorite brand, Arc'teryx. Only without the stitched on Dinosaur carcass, and only a fraction of the price.

This jacket works perfectly! It's a little lighter weight than I thought it would be but still keeps me warm and dry on rainy days.

The only reason I rated it 4 stars is because it doesn't have a hood

Great high quality soft shell. Minor complaint is the armpits are a little tight so it bunches up my ocp top a bit when I put it on. Not a big deal after adjusting. Other than that, it looks great, feels great, and is a great price.

This jacket is great, it is comfortable and does a great job at blocking wind and repelling light to moderate rain. Could not have asked for a better product.

I followed the other reviews and went with a large long. I probably could have done and XLarge long. The jacket I would describe as close to the body fit. I’m 5’10” 215pds and it’s snug not uncomfortable or restrictive but close to the body. It’s blocks the wind and is still very warm. I love these jackets.

Awesome jacket! Get a size up from what you normally wear, the jacket is somewhat of an athletic fit.

Very pleased with the jacket, very well made, serves exactly my need.

Fit good, good quality

This jacket fits great! Really feels well made and others in my unit are thinking of getting their own. I’m 5’10” and 172 and a large regular fits great!

I’m out in the PNW and the A5 rig had been perfect for the damp cold climate. As far as fit goes it is definitely on the fitted side. I’m 5’9 165 and ordering the long was the right choice. If you are a solid built dude, I would go up a size from normal

Got an A5 Rig Softshell on sale, which I have found to be well fitting, solidly-made and keeps me warm. I'm 5'11", 68kg and the medium-regular was perfect. Initially tried the medium-long, but the sleeves covered most of my hands. Glad that it is Berry-compliant and made in the USA. However, the MSRP is quite high. I understand that manufacturing in the US is more expensive, but over $600 (Multicam version) for a light jacket is awful steep. Comparable jacket from Arcteryx is literally half as much. Totally worth the sale price, though. Would definitely buy from Beyond again, but only during a sale.

Color shade matches operational uniform.
Velcro already seen on; ready for use right out the package.
Keeps me warm and dry.
I get lots of compliments from others, and have recommended this my other service members. Glad that I went with this instead of dropping hundreds on the “other” brand.

Pretty dope

A5 - Rig Softshell Jacket (NSR Patches) I am very happy to receive this jacket, the color is bright, the material is good, the size is very close, the sleeve length is just right and not too long, but this jacket is very close to the body, and It is not a loose version, but overall I am very satisfied, and I will continue to buy clothes of this brand.

Shade/design matches operational uniform.
Internal fleece design keeps you dry and soft shell outside keeps you dry.

I ordered the Medium Regular. I am 5’6”, 140lbs.
Fits very, very slim.. and I’m a small build guy.
Sleeves are a bit long and the jacket itself rests above my belt line, so does not cover my uniform top at all as I’d prefer it to.

I am satisfied with the product and have recommended it to my other service-member counterparts.

Highly recommend! Its comfortable, warm and looks great! Ive been letting everyone in my unit know..you wont regret your purchase.
