Features rab microlight alpine jacket

Rab brand down-filled hooded jacket. New version of this light and warm garment made from recycled materials, providing maximum insulation from the cold with minimum weight.

The Microlight Alpine jacket is made from a Pertex® Quantum outer fabric with 30 denier, 50 g/m² nylon, an extremely fine and dense recycled material that gives it windproof properties to better preserve the temperature. This fabric is completed with the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment that allows it to withstand snow and light rain without problems. Thanks to this material, the durability and resistance of the garment is assured.

Thermal insulation is provided by a filling of 153 grams of down (for size L) recycled from European goose with a inflation capacity of 700 FP; This means that one ounce (28 grams) of down of this quality has, when not subjected to any pressure, a capacity to occupy 700 cubic inches (approximately 11.5 liters) of volume. The down has been given a Nikwax water-repellent treatment to prevent moisture from affecting its insulating capabilities. It is RDS certified (Responsible Down Standard), which guarantees that the entire down extraction chain has been guaranteed not to inflict unnecessary harm on animals such as live plucking or force-feeding.

The Microlight Alpine Jacket has a micro- and nano-brick structure that minimizes down migration and provides optimal down distribution, avoiding cold spots, which together with the fixed hood makes this jacket a perfect option when warmth, weight and compactness are paramount. The partitioning and inner fabric are made of 20-denier recycled nylon, with 38 grams per square meter of weight.

YKK zippers on the side pockets and chest pocket. Elastic cuffs for a better fit and adjustable drawstring hem. Hood with built-in visor. Approximate weight 467 grams.
