With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.
Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!
With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.
So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.
Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates are given on Pre-Order and Pre-Launch products. They are for indication purposes only and can change at any time without notice.
The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

Rab's Catalyst Jacket is a technical, close fitting fleece mid layer designed for layering during very cold conditions. It uses zoned fabrics for optimum performance and insulation where its most needed. Polartec® High Loft™ makes up the bulk of the torso, for maximum core warmth, while under the arms, around the cuffs and down the sides of the body, Polartec® Power Stretch® is used for high breathability and freedom of movement
The Polartec® High Loft™ traps warm air from the body, creating a microclimate, much in the same way that animal fur works. It is also very breathable and efficient at wicking moisture, making it one of the very best fabrics for layering .
The Catalyst is a very versatile jacket that can be used under shell layers or as a standalone outer in milder conditions.
Rab® has long been a technical partner of Polartec®, the original pioneers of light-weight outdoor fleece fabrics. Back in the 1980's, Polartec® became the first manufacturer to produce outdoor-specific fleece knits, and to this day we use a wide range of Polartec® Fleece variations throughout our range.
What began as a company making wool knits for soldiers during both World Wars, became a brand dedicated to creating unique and innovative fleece fabrics, specifically designed for various end uses. The Rab® Fleece range draws upon 30 years of experience and reflects our close working relationship with Polartec®. From the highly technical pieces through to the more casually styled fleece jackets, we carefully select fabric combinations to produce the highest quality, durable fleece products available today.
