Super versatile for everything from hiking adventures and everyday through to the crag and climbing wall. This warm, light and packable down hoody combines Pertex 3DWeave pre-woven baffle technology with recycled hydrophobic down and stretch fabric.
Rab says
This functional, everyday down jacket looks good, feels good, and does good too. Giving a second life to quality down that might have otherwise ended up in landfill, the Cubit Stretch Down Hoody is filled with the 700FP P.U.R.E recycled down.
Built with advanced Pertex®3D Weave Technology, the jacket has excellent wind resistance, a light weight, and allows for maximum stretch and mobility on the move. The outer Pertex® Quantum fabric itself is breathable and weather resistant with a fluorocarbon-free DWR finish, perfect for outdoor activities in cold winter weather.
It has a durable YKK® VISLON® front zip with a soft, fleece lined chin guard and two spacious zipped hand pockets, perfect for stashing gloves and snacks. Ideal for long bothy nights and casual days at the crag, the Cubit Stretch Down Hoody has a cosy down filled hood and a slim fit for an ultra-snug feel.
Our Verdict
Rab's Cubit Stretch Down Hoody is another piece from Rab that ticks the eco credentials box.
The space behind the pockets on the inside of the jacket are large enough to take winter gloves/mitts, a hat and goggles.
The whole jacket is stretchy enough to move with you even through challenging scrambling moves. This added stretch also makes layering this jacket easy, as it will adapt to bulkier layers underneath the jacket.
The cut of the jacket means it can be used in the outdoors as well as in an urban environment without looking out of place.
