The Arc’teryx Veilance collection may well be one of the most difficult to hunt down. With less than a handful of doors in the USA (more internationally), we’ll suggest you hunt around for these garments. The line pushes Arc’teryx into a zone occupied by very few brands. Technical tailored men’s garments may not be a new thing but the segment is wide opening for offering such as Veilance. Take a look at this blazer from the collection.
“As with every Veilance piece, a perfect fit is paramount, and every detail of the Blazer has been scrutinised and redefined with any unnecessary elements stripped away. Rethinking outerwear’s role in an everyday existence micro seam by micro seam and unlocking its unlimited potential, this project will push things forward this year.” (photo: Neil Bedford)

To each his own but this screams cheesy to me. And the $1k price point on most of these Veilance items? It just feels a little off…
cool looking but 1200 bucks? sorry, no bespoke jacket here.
As an itinerant mountaineer, I own several Arc’teryx items – they make the best extreme conditions clothing available anywhere.
The Veilance stuff (at least the jacket pictured above) is what one would wear to a dinner party in a hurricane or perhaps reporting on Icelandic volcanoes. You will be stunned by the workmanship if you ever hold one of these in your hand.
Sure its pricey and you will never achieve a true tailored fit, but your bespoke jacket would never survive an apocalypse.
