I had to return the jacket as the coloured filling was visible. It should not have been sold like that.

Size Bought:

M

This is such a great lightweight but warm jacket. It is more of a slim fit, so it will be great under a shell. The red is a really beautiful color as well.

Nice all-around jacket

I am happy with this jacket. I ordered a L in this Rab jacket and a L in a similar Black Diamond jacket and I'll keep both. I would note that the sizing is very different between the two. I am 5'8" with an hourglass shape so I like jackets that zip comfortably from my hips to my chest and have long enough sleeves. I also live in a cold climate so as the seasons go on I will layer under or over a puffer when going outside. The Rab jacket is slim fitting and I probably couldn't get away with much more than a light shirt underneath, but it's more flattering than the Black Diamond one. I also think that since it's slim I could wear a shell over it. The sleeves are barely just long enough and the zipper zips and doesn't bunch up. The Black Diamond jacket in L is generous all over including the sleeves. The Rab jacket comes with a stuff sack, Black Diamond does not. The Black Diamond one will be better if I'm wearing a thick sweater or just want a loose fit, but I wouldn't be able to wear a shell over the black Diamond jacket.

Grapefruit colour has a blackness

Grapefruit colour has a blackness in the fabric which makes the Rab look dirty so I returned it. I do have 3 others exactly same shape different colours & love them. It was also 2 sizes down from my normal size.
