Rab Microlight Alpine Event Down Jacket
The Rab Microlight Alpine eVent Down Jacket is esentially two jackets in one - a lightweight, compressible, narrow baffled down jacket, combined with a fully waterproof, seam sealed, eVent waterproof jacket.
Many comoanies have tried to make these (some with more success then others) as it can be a really useful item to have in our wet winter climate. No longer would you need to take an insulated jacket AND a waterproof jacket, as you now have them both in one lightweight package. The other advantage is that, in this country. a lot of people end up opting for a synthetic jacket due to it's resistance to rain, but it's heavier. Now you can have the lightness of down, without worrying about getting it wet.
Using 140g/5oz (size large) of US750 fill European goose down and a 2 layer eVent® fabric shell, the Rab Microlight Alpine Event Jacket combines the warmth and breathablity needed for Alpine climbing and winter mountain walking, with for those changeable days on the hills spent dodging the rain.
