The updated Microlight Jacket has some intelligent upgrades over the original version of their best-selling down jacket. With its 100% recycled 30D Pertex® Quantum ripstop nylon shell and 700FP, 100% recycled down, it now treads a little lighter on the planet.
It uses body mapped micro and nano baffles to improve down distribution, bringing vital core warmth without unnecessary weight or bulk. Other key mountain features include three zipped, harness-compatible hand pockets, a close-fitting down-filled collar and elasticated cuffs that fit easily over gloves. In addition to a fresh design aesthetic to match its technical upgrades, it also comes with a carry-friendly weight of 403g. Whether you use it as a standalone everyday jacket or as a layer for mountain ascents, the Microlight is the essential lightweight, versatile down jacket for all lovers of the great outdoors.

What is hydrophobic down? - Rab finishes all their down with a hydrophobic treatment that enables it to retain its loft in damp conditions, so that your gear dries fast and stays warm.
Fill Power: 700 - Fill power is all about down quality, not quantity.
Recycled Down - Using 100% recycled, high quality down, gives a second chance to down that might otherwise have ended up in landfill. Reducing waste and making the most of this valuable insulation.
