Rab says:
Our bestselling multi-activity softshell is back, now built with a recycled fabric and offering the unbeatable breathability and wind resistance you need wherever you face up to the elements. The stretchy Matrix™ fabric allows freedom of movement for tackling tough ascents, while drying quickly and moving moisture from the inside out when you’re working up a sweat. Lightweight, packable, and incredibly versatile, this all-mountain softshell is at home whether you're running a windy ridgeline, ski touring, or scaling a rockface.
