A rectangular shaped liner with extra length & a fold back pillow slip.   This can be used as a st&-alone bed sheet in hostels etc. or as a liner for your sleeping bag.   The natural silk provides luxurious comfort, breathability & increased warmth.   The natural silk fibres wick moisture & dry very quickly & feel great next to the skin & thanks to its natural insulation properties it will add few extra degrees of warmth. In very hot conditions it can even be used on its own. With a teeny tiny pack size & minimal weight it is a luxury that you can afford to carry with you. Better still, leave inside your sleeping bag when you pack it away & you won’t even notice it’s there.

This supremely lightweight, fully waterproof & breathable mountain jacket is made using stretchy Pertex  Shield+ fabric. Pertex are a world leader in fabric technology & have worked closely with Rab to develop this high performance fabric with a hydrostatic head of 16, 000 mm, which basically means its VERY waterproof. Pertex Shield also provides high levels of breathability with a MVTR of 20, 000 (Gore-Tex Pro for example has a MVTR of around 28, 000).   The Spark is designed to be a minimalist jacket that will take up minimum space in your pack but deliver reliable performance when the conditions turn nasty. Rab have given you two nicely sized napoleon chest pockets that are mesh backed so they can double up as vents to increase airflow when you need it. The helmet compatible hood makes this a great piece to keep in you bag & throw on when climbing or scrambling.   If you are worried about water seeping through the zips then dont be; all zips are YKK  Aqua Guard water resistant zips which are the best water resistant zips on the market. There is an adjustable hem & 2 internal snap close loops that you can hook on to your belt loops to stop the jacket from riding up. All in all the Spark is an extremely well thought out jacket which can be used for a plethora of different activities.  Helmet-compatible hood with wired peak & kitty clip roll-down closure YKK Aqua Guard front zip with internal storm flap & rain drain Napoleon mesh lined YKK Aqua Guard zipped chest pockets, left side doubles as integrated stuff sack Velcro cuffs Hem drawcord

Rab have upgraded all their brilliant sleeping bags for the 2014 season with Hydrophobic Down. This fluorocarbon free treatment was developed in conjunction with Nikwax & although Hydrophobic Down is not waterproof it dries much faster, absorbs less water & retains loft far better than untreated down. This womens specific Andes sleeping bag is designed for high altitude & winter mountaineering & offers the same performance as the Expedition bags but with a more performance oriented fit & shape to reduce weight & bulk; it ias also perfectly useable for all outdoor winter activities where you just need to be assured of a warm nights sleep. Hand filled in Derbyshire by Rabs own elite fillers so you can be sure that every Andes bag is made with care & attention. This incredibly warm expedition & winter mountaineering sleeping bag is filled with 800g of 800 fill power Hydrophobic European goose down for maximum loft & insulation in a mummy shape which is optimised for bags with fill weights between 800 & 1200g. Longitudinal chest & foot baffles keep the down exactly where it’s needed, over the apex points of the body, to maximise insulation & to stop the down from migrating to the sides of the bag. Rab use their clever differential cut which is a technology developed to ensure that the space between the lining & the outer fabric is optimised for the specific filling & fill power. This maximises the potential of the down to loft naturally resulting in greater performance. The outer fabric is Pertex Endurance which offers low weight, strength & excellent water resistance & the inner is lined with Pertex Microlight fabric for enhanced comfort & wicking. Both the inner hood & foot areas are lined with Pertex Endurance to provide additional abrasion resistance from helmets & boots. Temperature ratings are used to indicate a bags performance but are subjective & can be hugely affected by many factors such as your health & metabolism, how much you have had to eat or drink, how active you have been, humidity & altitude, the type of shelter used & whether you are using a suitable insulating mat. Your sleeping bag is only as good as the mat that’s beneath it; we recommend EXPED & Therma Rest mats for comfort & insulation. The Comfort rating indicates the range at which a woman gets a full night’s sleep; the Limit of Comfort rating indicates the range at which a man gets a full night’s sleep & the Extreme rating indicates a range at which a woman is protected from hypothermia.  The Extreme rating is basically a survival rating & it is not advisable to rely on this for general use.

Rab have upgraded all their brilliant sleeping bags for the 2014 season with Hydrophobic Down. This flurocarbon free treatment was developed in conjunction with Nikwax & although Hydrophobic Down is not waterproof it dries much faster, absorbs less water & retains loft far better than untreated down. The Womens Ascent 700 is a 3-4 season bag designed in a semi-rectangular shape that is user friendly for general camping or for those wanting a bit more room than a tapered mummy shaped bag.   The Womens Ascent 700 offers excellent value for money, quality construction & low weight for its performance.   All Rab sleeping bags with left & right zips can be zipped together to form a cozy double bag. Filled with 700g of 650 fill power 80/20 Grey Duck Down in a Semi-Rectangular shape which is optimised for the specific fill weight. The generous internal shape is cut to allow a more relaxed sleeping position without sacrificing the performance needed for general mountain & outdoor activities. The shape of the trapezoidal internal baffle chamber delivers a very stable structure that delivers a consistent distribution of down throughout the bag. Differential cut ensures that the space between the lining & the outer fabric is optimised for the specific filling & fill power. These two technologies combine to maximise the potential of the down to loft naturally & reduce migration resulting in greater performance. The outer & inner fabrics are Pertex Microlight which is durable & lightweight & dries exceptionally quickly. Access is via a 3/4 YKK zip with an anti-snag baffle. An internal shoulder baffle helps to keep all the warmth in the bag & provides the ultimate in snuggly comfort. Both the hood & the shoulder baffle have drawcords. Temperature ratings are used to indicate a bags performance but are subjective & can be hugely affected by many factors such as your health & metabolism, how much you have had to eat or drink, how active you have been, humidity & altitude, the type of shelter used & whether you are using a suitable insulating mat.

The Comfort rating indicates the range at which a woman gets a full night’s sleep; the Limit of Comfort rating indicates the range at which a man gets a full night’s sleep & the Extreme rating indicates a range at which a woman is protected from hypothermia.   The Extreme rating is basically a survival rating & it is not advisable to rely on this for general use.
