Mountain equipment frostline jacket.
Rab insulated jacket review.
The rab xenon ditches the x from its name but is still the highest overall rated insulated jacket in our review and once again is a worthy winner of our editors choice award.
From the early days in patagonia and sheffield where our founder rab carrington harnessed his knowledge of outdoor clothing and equipment design through to the products we produce today we continue to redefine the future of insulation technology to create our range of men s insulated jackets that are at home in the outdoors.
This is all body mapped.
While it doesn t quite compare to heavy parkas or down jackets there is no doubt that the thick cirrus featherless insulation that fills this baffled jacket traps the warmth your body creates.
Insulation and insulated jackets are where it all began for rab.
While the active mid layer has become the most popular style of insulated jacket the nimbus is a straight up puffy complete with overstuffed horizontal baffles designed for maximum heat retention.
With a slick and highly wind resistant atmos outer shell combined with impressive warmth retention despite its very light weight the xenon is our favorite outer layer.
The rab nimbus is the warmest insulated jacket that we tested for this review and combined with its affordable price is a logical choice as our best buy for warmth.
