Rab Women's Vapour-Rise™ Summit Jacket

On stop-start days in the mountains, where periods of climbing, pausing, and moving again are constant, a versatile jacket is essential to adapt to varying exertion levels and shifting conditions. Designed for winter adventures on foot, skis, or with technical equipment, this Vapour-Rise™ softshell is crafted from wind-resistant Pertex® Quantum Air, offering reliable protection against harsh gusts. The lightweight VR Warm lining provides both warmth and comfort while maintaining excellent breathability, effectively managing moisture during high-energy ascents. Its adaptable design allows it to function as an outer layer or be combined with additional layers for extra insulation in colder conditions.
