The Rab Summit Jacket has been in Rab’s winter range for donkey’s years & recent updates have spruced up this classic down jacket. The Summit is probably the perfect all round nasty weather down jacket, ideal for winter mountaineering, base camp comfort or as a practical & durable everyday winter jacket. Pertex Endurance fabric is used to protect the lovely down insulation, this tough yet lightweight fabric has a light PU coating to give it a useful degree of water resistance, & although not completely waterproof it will shrug off the worst of the weather. Heavier denier contrasting Pertex Endurance is used over the shoulders & arms to provide reassuring abrasion resistance. Filled with 285g of 650 fill power Hydrophobic Goose Down in a stitch through construction the Summit Jacket will provide ample warmth for all but the most extreme temperatures. The down filled hood has a wired peak & can be rolled down & secured with poppers when not required. Rab is using Hydrophobic down in all their down jackets, basically each & every cluster of down is treated with Nikwax products to make them perform better in damp conditions. Although Hydrophobic down is not waterproof it dries much faster, absorbs less water & retains loft far better than untreated down. The use of a YKK Vislon Aqua Guard main zip further enhances the Summit’s weather resistance & gives the jacket a smart technical appearance. The Summit is a brilliant all round, all purpose winter down jacket for all but the most extreme conditions. 285g 650 fill power Hydrophobic European goose down Stitch-through baffle construction Down-filled helmet-compatible hood with wired peak 2-way YKK Aqua Guard VISLON front zip with internal insulated zip baffle & chin guard Separate collar with hood stow system 2 x YKK Aqua Guard zipped hand warmer pockets 1 x YKK zipped internal security pocket 1 x large internal mesh pocket Velcro cuffs Hem drawcord Articulated elbows Stuff sack Relaxed fit
