Arc'teryx Rush vs Rush IS: Buying Advice ([month

The new Rush IS.

As you might know, Arc'teryx scored an additional sub-model to the already existing Rush in 2019: The new Rush IS Jacket (women's counterpart is Shashka IS). They also revised the Rush (not Rush IS) in Jul 2020.

Rush IS isn't my favorite Arc'teryx ski jacket out there as you can see in this Best Arc'teryx Jackets for Skiing post of mine. Being one of the only two Arc'teryx ski jackets with insulation; it's the only alternative to Macai (which, in my opinion, is a great jacket), though.

Seems like there was also a Rush LT Jacket before, but it got discontinued as you can see here on REI.

To understand the differences between Rush vs Rush IS jackets, I contacted Arc'teryx Customer Service myself and provided their differences in a nutshell in this post.

Must see before making your final decision: Rush (2020 version) vs Rush IS comparison table at Arc'teryx's own site

Performance data axis of synthetic jackets (table above) and shell jackets (this table) are different. Don't compare them.

I contacted Arc'teryx Customer Service myself and am provided their differences in a nutshell.

But first, let's see where the Rush and Rush IS stand in Arc'teryx's entire line-up.

Now let me reveal what the customer service told me:

"There are a few differences between those jackets. The Rush will be more durable {due to their different face fabrics N80p-X (Rush) VS N40p-X (Rush IS)} and more breathable (not an insulated jacket).

The Rush IS will be warmer (Octo Loft insulation). They will both be very weather resistant, and the regular fit is approximately the same.

Your choice between the two will depend on how you are layering underneath and what activity you will use it for.

Here is a useful link that shows all the technical aspects:

Pockets

This can also be important for some of you. Applies to both Rush and Rush IS.

The internal pocket of both jackets are large enough to fit an iPhone 6, 7, 8 (even with a case) and all the other similar sized phones (duh). But it's not large enough to fit their plus models.

It measures:

Height: 18 cm (7 inches)
Width: 13 cm (5.1 inches)

DWR Coating

Both jackets are DWR coated.

What is DWR by the way?

DWR is a coating.

It's basically sprayed on to the surface of these jackets as a finish.

It stands for Durable Water Repellent - which means that water will be repelled under wet conditions instead of soaking into the fabric.

DWR also decreases dry time.

It's a good thing these jackets are coated in DWR.

But pay attention to the fact that DWR is a coating - meaning that it will wear off over time.

Which is why you might want to invest in a DWR spray such as this one at arcteryx.com for after treatment.

As you see, there's a strong correlation between FP x FW and temperature ratings, but not more than, say, 80%. I explained why this happens here in this post of mine.
