And it doesn t give you that puffed up look like so many similar down jackets.
Rab rain jacket review.
Our phantom pull on shell uses waterproof two layer construction with ta.
Our range of men s waterproof jackets and rain jackets is designed to keep the worst weather at bay.
From the very early days of rab our founder rab carrington was an advocate of new fabric technologies and continually searching for new fabrics to make more packable and lightweight waterproof jackets while making sure they remain functional for mountain environments.
After decades crafting clothing for mountaineers and alpinists khroma is rab s dedicated ski specific range.
The rab downpour is a thin raincoat made of 100 polyamide with polyurethane laminate on ripstop fabric with fully taped seams.
Rab are at the forefront of practical technically advanced outdoors gear and in the valiance jacket they ve released one of the most impressive and effective heavy duty winter options on the market right now.
Made with pertex shield 2 5 layer fabric with dry touch this jacket comes with all the essential features for comfort and practicality including pit zips adjustable hood and cuffs as well as zippered pockets with storm flaps.
The rab microlight alpine jacket features an impressive level of hydrophobic down which is specially treated to repel water like magic.
Rugged protective and reliable khroma is for those who love the up as much as the down.
It s a great option for most backpackers hikers climbers and trail runners who are likely to carry their rain jacket in their pack the majority of the time.
It has two hand pockets that are located a little higher up for a backpack waist belt and packs into its own left pocket though it s a pretty tight squeeze.
Over the last four or so years rab has been on top of the technical fabric world churning out shell after category smashing shell.
It is heavier than some competition but is built for the wet and truly cold parts of this world.
That streak continues with the phantom which as the lightest waterproof breathable shell on the market has the weight of a trashbag poncho the rain protection of a hardshell and yet somehow the airy feel of a softshell.
The rab microlight alpine is one of the very best down hoodies in our review combining superior water resistance features with notable warmth in a relatively light package.
