Thermal performance for alpine use
The Microlight Alpine Jacket Exclusive from Rab is clearly designed for cold mountain sports days involving intense activity. The combination of high-quality, recycled down with Nikwax treatment ensures that the jacket provides reliable warmth and is less sensitive to moisture than untreated down. Especially for mountaineering, alpine climbing or longer trekking stages, you benefit from the insulation performance remaining reliable even in light snowfall or damp air.
Protection through material and quality workmanship
The Pertex Quantum outer material is lightweight, windproof and designed for use in the mountains. In combination with the DWR coating, it offers dependable protection against wind and short showers without losing the focus on breathability. A storm flap under the front zip reduces draughts, which is especially noticeable in a cool breeze. Elastic inner cuffs help with the fit around the wrists and keep warmth close to the body.
Functional details for everyday use on the mountain
The hood can be adjusted with a drawstring and offers additional protection in changeable conditions. Two front pockets and a chest pocket with zip offer space for gloves, a hat or small items that you want to have handy when you're out and about. The drawstring in the hem allows you to adjust the fit of the jacket to minimise heat loss. Overall, the jacket offers streamlined and practical features, without unnecessary extras.
