The Arc'teryx store on Banff Ave carries the full technical outerwear line including the Alpha, Beta, and Zeta hardshell series that the brand has built its reputation on. Staff at this location tend to have actual experience with the products in mountain conditions, which makes the advice more useful than at a general outdoor retailer.
The warranty and repair service available at the store is worth knowing about if you have older Arc'teryx gear that needs attention. The footwear line has expanded in recent seasons and the approach shoes are worth looking at if you are doing any scrambling or trail running while in Banff.
Prices are full retail. The outlet sales happen twice a year and the Banff location participates. The store also stocks the Veilance urban line if you are looking for the technical materials in a less technical format.
