EP1 Arc'teryx

Title: Ep. 01: Arc’teryx Decoded — North Shore Roots, Micro-Seams & Floor Truths | Gear Up with Mo Description: Welcome to the debut episode of Gear Up with Mo! Hosted by Mo, sales associate and store advisor at Mountain Equipment Company (MEC) in downtown Edmonton, this show cuts through the marketing fluff to bring you the unfiltered truth about technical outdoor gear. In this series premiere, we dive deep into the legendary Coast Mountain brand: Arc’teryx. From its humble beginnings in a damp North Vancouver basement fixing agonizing climbing harnesses to revolutionizing modern outerwear with 8mm micro-seam tape and WaterTight™ zippers, we break down how the iconic Archaeopteryx fossil became the benchmark of alpine protection. Visiting Edmonton? Don't guess your sizing or layering system on a screen. Drop by the MEC store in downtown Edmonton, come find Mo on the floor, and let’s dial in your kit for your next mountain objective.
