The Rab Microlight Alpine Hoody is a lightweight, low-bulk down jacket designed for year-round mountain versatility. Whether you're on windswept trails, at chilly belays, or grabbing a quick summit layer, it delivers reliable warmth without restricting movement or adding unnecessary weight.
Insulated with high-loft 700 fill power down, it uses body-mapped baffle construction to optimise performance: larger micro baffles across the torso and back for core warmth, and smaller nano baffles under the arms for improved mobility and reduced bulk. This strategic design ensures warmth where you need it most while allowing freedom of movement during active use.
The outer fabric is Pertex® Quantum with NetPlus®, a durable and breathable material made using fully traceable post-consumer recycled fishing nets. This windproof shell adds sustainability alongside dependable protection from the elements, while maintaining a soft, packable feel ideal for alpine environments. A long-standing Rab bestseller, the Microlight Alpine Hoody is a dependable all-season insulation piece built for real mountain use.
