Rab

Women's Black Microlight Windstopper Hoodie

Wind is the variable that changes everything in the mountains. A cold day with no wind is manageable. Add a sustained ridge gust, and the calculus shifts fast. The Rab Microlight Windstopper Hoodie was built for exactly that moment, taking the already beloved Microlight down jacket and pairing it with a WINDSTOPPER membrane from GORE-TEX LABS that stops wind in its tracks without sacrificing the breathability you need to keep moving. The result is a year-round mountain layer that pulls serious weight across climbing, hiking, and everything in between. The 700-fill European goose down with a fluorocarbon-free hydrophobic finish traps heat efficiently across stitch-through baffles that are sized and positioned to maximize warmth without restricting movement. Micro and nano baffles are placed tactically across the body to balance insulation level with mobility and breathability, where each is needed most. The down-filled, helmet-compatible hood has a stiffened peak that holds its shape when the weather comes in, and stretch cuffs with a drawcord hem seal out drafts at the extremities. A chest pocket, two hand pockets, and a stuff sack pocket keep essentials accessible, and the YKK Vislon front zip with insulated storm flap closes out the wind at the centerline. More than 75% recycled materials and a fully fluorocarbon-free construction mean the mountains you wear this in are a little better off for it. Color: black
