Why We Like The Rab VR Alpine Light Jacket
Introducing the Rab VR Alpine Light Jacket, a revolutionary piece of outerwear that combines the best features of an outer layer and a midlayer. Designed for mountain pursuits, this jacket is made with a highly breathable and air-permeable Pertex Quantum Air shell and features two polyester linings that work together to trap warm air, vent excess heat, and enhance moisture vapor transmission. The result? A jacket that keeps you warm, dry, and comfortable in any weather condition, all while weighing a mere 11 ounces.
