Rab's classic lightweight down jacket has been updated. With a fresh design aesthetic and 100% recycled fabric and down insulation, the highly packable Microlight Alpine Jacket is the go-to system for rapid warmth when the temperature drops.
The redesigned Microlight Alpine Jacket takes the versatile, easy-pack established classic and dials in some intelligent upgrades. It features a combination of zoned micro and nano baffles to increase core warmth without inflating weight or bulk. With a 30D recycled Pertex® Quantum ripstop outer and 100% recycled, 700FP, hydrophobic down, the Microlight Alpine Jacket now treads a little lighter on the planet. Practical and stylish, both as an everyday jacket and as a mountain layer, it has three harness-compatible pockets and a down-filled hood with stiffened peak.
With its refined style, improved down distribution, technical features and lower impact than its predecessor, the Microlight Alpine Jacket is the definitive multi-purpose down jacket.
Features:
Pertex® Quantum - A soft, lightweight, windproof fabric that encourages insulation to fully loft. Highly packable and protective, it's ideal for mountain activities.
What is hydrophobic down? - Rab finishes all their down with a hydrophobic treatment that enables it to retain its loft in damp conditions, so that your gear dries fast and stays warm.
Fill Power: 700 - Fill power is all about down quality, not quantity.
Recycled Down - Using 100% recycled, high quality down, gives a second chance to down that might otherwise have ended up in landfill. Reducing waste and making the most of this valuable insulation.
Microlight Collection - Inspired by decades of mountain exploring, Rab's iconic Microlight collection is lightweight, packable and ideal for any outdoor pursuit, from alpine climbs and mountain hikes to lowland trails and everyday adventure. Tried, tested and loved by many.
