Arc’teryx Introduces Sperro SV, Built for Circularity

Arc’teryx introduces System 0™, a new framework that reimagines how products can be designed, manufactured, used, repaired, and ultimately regenerated. System 0 represents the next evolution for sustainability in the outdoor industry, as it embeds circular thinking across an entire product lifecycle while maintaining the uncompromising performance standards that define the Arc’teryx brand.

The first product being introduced as part of the System 0 platform is the Sperro SV jacket, a multisport mountain-grade hardshell engineered for durability, repairability, and disassembly at end of life. Built with GORE-TEX® Pro Fabric featuring the ePE membrane, Sperro SV was developed with GORE-TEX Brand’s testing expertise to meet their durable waterproof, windproof, and breathable performance standards.

Sperro SV is the first product to be certified by TESTEX® Circularity, a leading standard Arc’teryx copiloted as part of this work to fill a gap in circular product standards. The certification confirms the jacket’s capacity for long-lasting wear, quick and easy repair, and its ability to undergo a cutting-edge chemical recycling process to maximize reuse of materials.

Sperro SV has been extensively tested by alpine professionals, including the search and rescue teams from Vancouver’s North Shore Rescue. It is reinforced at common failure points and comes with three years of unlimited, out-of-warranty repairs through ReBIRD™. Built to remain in use as long as possible, Sperro SV is Designed to Persist™.

Available globally beginning September 4, 2026, through Arc’teryx stores and arcteryx.com, Sperro SV is now Arc’teryx’s most advanced hardshell jacket.
