Rab Microlight Jacket - Men's Insulated Down Jacket, Beluga, Size S

The Rab Microlight Jacket is a versatile insulated down jacket engineered for cold-weather performance in the mountains. Its 700-fill-power recycled hydrophobic down delivers exceptional warmth-to-weight, while the Pertex Quantum ripstop shell with DWR sheds light precipitation and wind. The helmet-compatible, down-filled hood with stiffened peak offers full protection without restricting vision, and the YKK Vislon front zip with insulated baffle seals out drafts. Elasticated cuffs and an adjustable hem lock in heat, making this jacket a reliable layer for climbing, hiking, and everyday winter use.

Advantages

The Microlight Jacket combines premium materials with thoughtful design. The recycled hydrophobic down retains loft even in damp conditions, ensuring consistent insulation. The Pertex Quantum fabric is lightweight yet durable, resisting abrasion while remaining packable. The helmet-compatible hood and stiffened peak provide excellent coverage in harsh weather, and the multiple YKK zipped pockets keep essentials secure. With a regular fit, it layers comfortably over base layers or under a shell, and the included stuff sack makes it easy to stow in a pack.
