Rab says:
From alpine linkups to exposed ridges, this exceptionally packable waterproof jacket is made for your tough ascents in fickle conditions. All its features have been designed to reduce bulk and weight so it’s easy to stash when clouds clear, and with 3-layer Pertex® Shield, it offers uncompromised protection when a storm strikes mid-climb. With ascent-specific articulation it’s the ideal retreat for alpine climbing, yet it also offers enduring comfort on any technical mountain pursuit in unpredictable weather, whether you’re fast hiking or negotiating knife-edge ridgelines.
