VR Alpine Light Jacket - Men's

Pertex Quantum Air is a lightweight, breathable, and wind-resistant fabric designed for outdoor enthusiasts. Its unique construction allows air to flow through while still providing protection against the wind. This makes it ideal for activities like hiking and climbing, where comfort and breathability are essential, helping you stay cool and protected during your adventures.

DWR, or Durable Water Repellent, is a treatment applied to fabrics that helps them resist water. When it rains lightly, the DWR coating causes water to bead up and roll off the surface instead of soaking in. This feature is crucial for outdoor jackets, as it keeps you dry and comfortable during unexpected light rain, allowing you to enjoy your activities without worrying about getting wet.

The VR Wicking Layer is part of Rab's Vapour-Rise system, designed to draw moisture away from your skin to the outer layer of the fabric. This helps evaporate sweat quickly, keeping you dry and comfortable during physical activities. By preventing sweat from accumulating against your skin, it enhances your overall comfort, especially during intense workouts or hikes.

The VR Airflow Layer is engineered to provide ventilation, allowing air to flow through the fabric. This is particularly important during high-intensity activities, as it helps regulate your body temperature and prevents overheating. By promoting airflow, this layer ensures you stay comfortable and focused on your outdoor pursuits.

The Vapour-Rise System is a proprietary technology developed by Rab that combines multiple layers of fabric to create a jacket that is warm, breathable, and moisture-wicking. This innovative design maintains a comfortable microclimate for the wearer, making it suitable for various outdoor activities like hiking, climbing, and mountaineering. Its ability to balance warmth and breathability sets it apart from other technologies, ensuring you stay comfortable in changing weather conditions.

Absolutely! Jackets featuring the Vapour-Rise System are versatile and designed for a range of outdoor activities, including hiking, climbing, and mountaineering. Their combination of warmth, breathability, and moisture management makes them suitable for various conditions, allowing you to perform at your best, whether you're scaling a mountain or enjoying a leisurely hike.
