A close-fitting and breathable mid-layer that works with your base layer to move moister away from the skin helps regulate your heat and is very comfortable to wear next to the skin.
Rab says:
A high wicking, lightweight, fleece midlayer, for when stretch and free movement are the utmost priority. Built with Thermic™ S stretch fleece, made with part recycled fabric, it offers high breathability and low bulk ideal for intense activity.
Our Verdict
The Rab Light Pull-On uses Grid fleece technology to make a mid-layer, making temperature regulation much more effective in warm and cold conditions. The Grid Fleece allows for a highly efficient way of moving moisture away from the skin to prevent cold, damp spots. This, combined with a breathable Thermic G outer fabric, prevents overheating while moving.
The Ascendor Light Pull-On is a close-fitting garment that moves and stretches with you, so they are suitable for scrambling or any form or rock climbing. The cuffs and the hem are both elasticated to keep the heat in when needed, but if it's starting to heat up, the front zip can quickly ventilate heat.
