It is roomy enough to add several baselayers but not so big that it felt Michelin Man styley. The Rab Women’s Neutrino Endurance down jacket comes in sizes: UK 8 to 16. I like the zipped internal zip for keeping small valuables safe.Ĭolours: Six colours give lots of choice, from Beluga and granite to bright Red and Aqua. It keeps the wind out and the warmth in.įeatures: The two-way zip is a useful feature, as are the zipped “hadn warmer” pockets (perfect for adding extra warmth to cold hands). We haven’t had too many really cold days but I have tested it on high-level winter walks (I keep a down jacket in reserve for when we stop for lunch or when the snow comes and we’re walking downhill) and on a winter’s camping trip. ![]() The Rab Rab Neutrino Endurance has proved to be just as effective this winter. Colours: Six colours give lots of choice, from Beluga and granite to bright Red and Aqua. Warmth: I have worn a Rab 800-fill down jacket through many winters and felt very smug about how warm I am when others are shivering. And the hood is fitted with xxx so it stays up even when it’s windy. The arm length is brilliant, even for someone with very long arms like me. I prefer the shorter version, but if you are looking for more warmth in your butt area you could choose the Rab Women’s Neutrino Plus jacket. It might be a puffy down jacket but it still has great shape and looks good on the female physique. What I like about the Rab Neutrino Enduranceįit: I have rarely found a down jacket that fits so well. This jacket is great for all kinds of outings, from walking in the mountains to skiing in the Alps. Our Hydrophobic Down treatment is unique to Rab and fluorocarbon- free. With these only a small percentage of the proofer reaches the down as the outer and inner fabrics act as a barrier. Duck and goose produce down with different characteristics and each grade of down required a separate formula.īecause our Hydrophobic Down treatment is applied to the raw down at source it is far more effective and durable than DIY down-proofing products. It also speeds up drying times when damp and will withstand repeated washing.ĭeveloping our Hydrophobic Down was a complex process. Our Hydrophobic Down treatment now ensures that our down absorbs substantially less water, so retaining more loft and warmth. We worked closely with a company with decades of experience in proofing technologies to develop unique treatments that make our down fully water-resistant. Perhaps because we only use very high quality down, sourced, processed and accredited in Europe.īut we weren’t content to leave it there. When we started we found that our raw down was actually quite hard to wet. “We guard against this by protecting our down beneath very tight weave and coated fabrics treated with robust DWR finishes, but for a while now we’ve been working on protecting the down itself. A true staple for alpinists, the new Neutrino Pro is ultra-warm, hardwearing, and honed for vertical adventures.Rab already offers a DWR finish to the outer fabric of the jacket to keep the wet out. It has a fully adjustable, helmet compatible, down filled hood and a tough, two-way YKK® VISLON® ® front zip for ease of use with a harness.ĭesigned for durability in rugged terrain, the shoulders and upper sleeves have been strengthened with Ripstop reinforcements. Designed specifically with the demands of winter climbing in mind, whether you’re questing up frozen waterfall or belaying from an exposed ledge, the Neutrino Pro offers unhindered movement for proficient climbing.Incredibly lightweight and packable for such a warm jacket, the Neutrino Pro can be compressed and stored in your pack. The new anatomically engineered twisted arm baffles improve arm pre-curve, enabling complete freedom of movement. The Neutrino Pro uses a recycled, wind and weather resistant Pertex® Quantum Pro outer, offering refuge from blizzards, withstanding snow, and spindrift. This ultra-high lofting down is extremely insulative, even in freezing temperatures. ![]() ![]() Perfect for climbing in winter conditions, this alpine down jacket is filled with 800FP goose down.
