Rab Xenon Jacket (2012)

£155.00

It’s hard to believe that something this light (290g, size 10 – lightest on test) can help keep you warm on the hill. But thanks to the super-light Pertex Quantum used on the inner and outer coupled with the warming quality of the PrimaLoft One insulation, the Rab Xenon Jacket packs heat well above its weight. As soon as I ...

Rab Latock 2011

£280.00

The Rab Latock is made from eVent fabric, and this version feels particularly robust and hard-wearing. It does make the jacket heavier than some others (762g, men’s L), but it’s likely that it will also stand up to abuse far better as well. The feature set is ideal for wet or wintry mountain days, thanks to the four large chest ...

Rab Mountain Dru 2011

£250.00

New for this winter, the Rab Mountain Dru is a more durable and longer version of the Rab Super Dru. So it is made of a tougher version of eVent fabric with further extra reinforcement on the shoulders, sleeves and hem. The jacket is not incredibly long, but it’s longer than some others here such as the very similar Mountain ...

Rab Demand Pull-On

£150.00

Uniquely, this top is designed in a smock-style, which harks back to the uncluttered designs of climbing kit. The result is a top with minimal stitching and fuss to impede its technical ability to shed water and breathe. As an emergency waterproof to throw on in a sudden downpour it’s great. The 3-layer eVENT waterproofing does make it more substantial ...

Rab Sawtooth

£80.00

The Sawtooth is a great example of a performance-driven style of soft shell, although this time without Olympic track-star styling. I didn’t expect the lightweight fabric to be so warm, but during more energetic activity, it really kept the heat in. During a snow-bound jaunt up Snowdon’s Pyg Track, with only a pair of gloves on (and trousers, obviously) the ...

Rab Xenon 2010

£150.00

The most needed but least used piece of kit I take on the hill is probably spare insulation. It spends most of its life in my rucksack, but is essential over lunch breaks and when stopping to take in a sunset in winter. So this is one area where going lighter is important, but not at the expense of getting ...

Rab Bergen

£190.00

This is lighter weight shell-style jacket, and a great performing one at that. Although quite thin, the face fabric is pleasant to the touch (if a little rustly) with a tough, ripstop feel. In use the eVENT fabric performs extremely well, not leaking even after standing under a waterfall! There are no vents, and the pockets are not mesh-lined, but ...

Rab Drillium 2010

£175.00

‘Best in Test’ in Trail since 2007, the Rab Drillium multi-activity jacket is made from eVent, which is rated as among the most waterproof and most breathable of fabrics so it can control condensation well even when you’re working hard on a bike, say. The tail is a little longer to protect the lower back when bent over handlebars. The ...

Rab Bergen/Vidda 2010

£200.00

A very popular general-purpose jacket that is becoming a modern classic, the Rab Bergen (the women’s version is the Vidda) is made from eVent fabric, so it offers top levels of waterproof and breathable performance. The front zip gets an external stormflap to help keep the rain out, and the pockets are sealed on the inside to prevent rain leaking ...

Rab Momentum

£175.00

The Momentum oozes quality. Its eVENT three-layer fabric is lightweight, yet still reassuringly tough, waterproof and breathable. It’s cut long enough to cover the hips, but not so low that it restricts leg movement, and there’s plenty of room for adjustment in the elastic drawcord hem and Velcro cuffs. But what sets this jacket apart from the others is its ...

Rab Bergen 2010

£110.00

The Bergens manage to balance a light weight and good packability against toughness, comfort and performance to make an excellent pair of trousers. The three-layer eVENT fabric feels incredibly breathable and it will also keep the rain out in even the worst weather. The hip-length zips make it easy to spill heat if the going gets hot; and the drawcord ...

Rab Baltoro Light

£110.00

It’s not often that an article of clothing ticks all the boxes, but this does. The excellent fabric provides a decent amount of insulation and is also incredibly weather-resistant and very breathable. It has two huge hip/chest pockets that double as vents and the cuffs are fastened with Velcro. Single-handed drawcords adjust the hem, trapping or releasing warmth, and another ...

Rab Drillium 2009

£160.00

The multi-activity jacket was voted Best in Test in 2007 and 2008, and it’s still hard to beat. The Rab Drillium is made from eVent, which is rated among the most waterproof and most breathable of fabrics. It has a scooped tail, which is ideal for mountain biking, and the arm movement allows the handlebars to be held without the ...

Rab Drillium

£175.00

The Drillium is made from three-layer eVENT fabric, which feels tough and protective, and not at all rustly or plastic. The cuffs are adjusted with Velcro – perfect for venting when needed – and the hem and hood use drawcords to fine-tune the fit. The hood is superb: deep and cosy with a wired peak, yet it packs into the ...

Rab Treklite Pant

£60.00

The Treklite is exceptionally comfortable, thanks to its lightweight, stretchy fabric that feels good against the skin and their well-shaped articulated knees. They come with an integral belt and stretch waist so you can be sure of a comfortable fit, but they only come in one leg length for each size, which may put some off. The fabric feels cool ...

Rab Super Dru 2008

£200.00

The Rab Super Dru is a modern classic that is very hard to beat if you’re in search of a functional, lightweight hill-walking jacket. The Super Dru is made from 3-layer eVent fabric, which controls condensation better than Gore Paclite used on some other jackets. You also get more abrasion-resistant fabric over the shoulders and sleeves. The body is longer ...

Rab Drillium 2008

The Rab Drillium is among the lightest mulit-activity jackets here. It is made from eVent, which is rated as among the most waterproof and most breathable of fabrics, and tends to hide condensation better than the Gore Paclite used in some other jackets. For biking the scooped tail is useful, while climbers will appreciate the excellent arm movement. For storing ...

Rab Super Dru

£200.00

The Rap Super Dru is a pleasure to put on in rain. Good adjustment and the three-layer eVENT fabric feels superb, too. At just 400g, it is excellent in the pack and the superb hood will keep out some pretty awful weather.

Weighing in at just 642g (including a16g stuffsack) for a size large, this is the sort of garment that you won’t mind carrying from autumn through winter and into spring, which is essential as ...
