Product Reviews
Rated 4 out of 5 by from Best jacket I've had in 20 yrs! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very happy with this purchase! I'm 5'9 170 and ordered the large. It fits great with room for a mid layer under if needed and affords a full range of motion. Obviousley super light weight and packable. Used it for the first time in 30 degree weather with only a t-shirt under and I was almost to warm at that temp. Can't wait to strap on the snowshoes, get out in below zero and really test it this winter!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Jacket [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted a puffy with a hood and this one fits snuggly to give added warmth when needed. The jacket itself is very warm. I have not tried it out on a backpacking trip yet but headed to Colorado next week so anxious to wear it in the mountains to, hopefully, test it out at colder temps. I tried on this jacket prior to purchasing it and I ended up getting a medium but it is a little snug for me (5'11, 170 pounds). I also tried on a size large and it was too big. Also, this is the softest puffy jacket that I have found so it is super comfortable. Highly recommend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Solid Puffy [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this to have an extra lightweight warm layer when hiking. It rides in the pack in case I need it. I looked at similar jackets from other brands and selected this one because it is seemingly slightly more water resistant, albeit slightly heavier if you're counting grams. Overall I am very pleased. I actually wear it frequently off-trail, and it is surprisingly warm, even in below freezing temperatures. I did end up having to return the first one I bought because it was too snug and replaced it with a larger size.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect Jacket and great light weight insulation Absolutely love this jacket, I spent three months hiking Langtang, Annapurna and Everest regions in Nepal and it performed exactly how I needed it to. It is super light, packs really well and the level of insulation is perfect, especially when we experienced down to -16C. Works really well with the Rab Geon Pullover fleece underneath. Has an internal chest pocket to keep electricals warm, two zip chords around the waist to trap the warm air and the hood has a peak which keeps it nice and stiff over your head. Also has a single layer Pertex protection for water repellent but not fully waterproof. Can't fault the jacket even though its a bit pricey, but worth the investment as I will be using it for years to come. Next price level up you can expect gortex protection

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Perf [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have worn this jacket probably 10 times now and I absolutely love it. This is only the 2nd down coat I have ever purchased but it is warmer than the heat coming off of my toyo stove exhaust you here in Seward Alaska. Perf mid layer! Cheers!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from SLIM fit but a great jacket. I unfortunately had to return this jacket due to the extreme slim fit, I am a Men's small, through and through, but this was extreme, body was more of an XS, sleeves and hood were perfect.. I loved the hood, the neck and face area inside of the jacket when fully zipped, and the feature set. If there was a medium available, I would have given it a shot. Zipper is on the left which is unusual for a US Men's jacket.

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Almost there. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is still a good jacket but there are two big differences comparing to the previous generation of this jacket. The fill of the jacket (700) and the quality of the down (80/20) are subpar and just dont deliver, jacket is not warm enough. Outer shell is also a big issue. It is recycled fabric, softer but it doesnt look so resilient. Also it wrinkles like crazy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent all rounder I recently wore this jacket in New York in December when it was really chilly and really wet on one day, this jacket stood up brilliantly to the task. I was toasty warm with a t-shirt and Nexus pull on as my layers and it never let a drip of water in. Such an easy jacket to shake dry and easily pack able when I needed to use the stuff sack in the big stores. I recommend this jacket as my number 1 go to jacket!!

RAB FIT GUIDE
SLIM FIT: Rab Slim Fit garments are designed to be worn closer to the body or over layers such as base-layers and light mid-layers. Close fitting for maximum performance when moving dynamically.

REGULAR FIT: Designed to be versatile, Rab Regular Fit garments are not closely fitted for cross-seasonal use and multi-layering. Garments are contoured with room for movement.

EXPEDITION FIT: Expedition fit garments are designed to be worn in colder conditions and over more layers of clothing than our other fits and as such are oversized slightly to allow for this.
