The Rab story began in 1981 in the attic of a small, terraced house in Sheffield where Rab Carrington made the first sleeping bag to bear his name. Hand-stitched and devised with his own ingenious eye, Rab's experience from years spent in the mountains was apparent in his designs, and soon there was popular demand from Rab's friends and the growing local climbing community. Now, decades later, those honest, hard-wearing designs can be found all over the world; wherever adventurous individuals face up to the elements. From Himalayan peaks to cold, crisp evenings around a camp fire. This began as the brand's story, but it also belongs to those who've loved and cared for each and every one of our products. Who've made them their companions on long trips and expeditions.
Rab Mens Kinetic Alpine Jacket
All about this product
General
The Mens Kinetic Alpine Jacket from Rab combines the soft and flexible nature of a softshell with the protection and durability of a hardshell. The garment has been designed to contour your body shape and wicks away any sweat generated on steep ground. It is also super lightweight so it’s easy to forget you are wearing a waterproof until the showers roll in.
Rab have used their own material in the Proflex which is a revolution in waterproof technology whilst providing breathability. Bulky patches are no more thanks to the reinforced ceramic print overlays in high wear areas which increases durability without affecting the stretch.
The jacket has been developed around the alpinist with features such as a helmet-compatible hood, YKK AquaGuard zips, fully taped seams, and adjustable cuffs / hem ensuring high functionality for the mountains. A small stuff sack provides easy storage in either a pack or clipped to a harness.
