Description

The Rab Microlight Vest is the down vest every mountain person needs, combining a low-bulk design with 700 fill power hydrophobic down and Pertex Quantum fabric featuring NetPlus, a yarn made from traceable recycled fishing nets. Offering packable, versatile warmth without the bulk of sleeves, it's a staple for year-round, all-mountain use, whether layered under a shell for extra core warmth or worn alone around camp. This makes it a genuinely useful addition to any mountaineer's or hillwalker's kit, especially on days with variable temperatures. Backed by Rab's long heritage in insulation design, it's built to reward regular use across the coldest months of the year.

Zoned micro and nano baffle construction increases down loft for optimal heat retention, while a lightweight YKK centre front zip with an insulated baffle seals in warmth. YKK zipped hand pockets and a large zipped chest pocket provide secure, accessible storage, and an integrated packaway pocket with a clip-in loop makes this vest easy to stash when not in use. A drawcord adjustable hem completes a genuinely versatile piece for changeable mountain conditions. Every detail has been considered with cold-weather performance in mind, resulting in a jacket that rewards regular use through the coldest months.

Rab Microlight Vest Features:

  • 30D Pertex® Quantum with fluorocarbon-free DWR
  • 700FP recycled down with Grangers hydrophobic finish (111g Size M)
  • Lightweight YKK® centre front zip with insulated zip baffle
  • YKK® zipped hand pockets and large zipped chest pocket

Rab Microlight Vest Review

This Vest was reasonably priced on the website. This item was exactly what I was looking for. Fast delievery too. The Microlight Vest is a great piece of kit. Well made and a perfect fit (I am 5' 9"""""""" and purchased a medium). It is very light, and can be packed down very small and packed in the stuff sack that comes with it, but is a great insulator. I am really pleased with my purchase.

Great value (30% lower than elsewhere) Delivered within 2 working days. XL ordered and fit is true to size. V happy with style, fit, length (I am 6ft 6 tall) and quality plus warm (ie on days which don't quite warrant a coat)

Just what hubby was looking for. Lightweight, yet warm and with a useful chest pocket for storing his mobile phone. Just right now Autumn is closing in.

Excellent service from this company, I even managed to speak to a human on the phone regarding my order. The rab microlight vest I ordered is a top class piece of kit. If you need to return anything its no hassle, and no worries about getting a refund. Does what it says on the tin.

Rab Microlight Vest Review

Lightweight and very nice quality vest. Multi-purpose really, can be worn under a waterproof shell or on top of base and mid layers on a cold dry day. Well positioned hand and breast pockets plus you get a stuff sack for packing if needed. Very good.

Rab Microlight Vest Review

I purchased this Rab vest to replace a 4 year old similar Rab vest which I had managed to tear on some barbed wire. The new vest has more filling and is noticeably warmer as a result but it still packs down to a small size into the chest pocket. This version also has zipped front pockets which is a great improvement on the previous elasticated pockets. Overall I'm very pleased with the vest.

Rab Microlight Vest Review

Purchased for the boyfriend who is both the coldest person on the planet (think five layers when everyone else is in two!) and tall and slim. I have been assured that it is very warm despite is lightweight, its currently mostly being used to extend the usability of various lightweight jackets (being thinner you don't end up looking like the michelin man), but I suspect will get worn a lot with tees and long sleeves as well all year round. All its fixtures and fittings are really nicely finished, all the quality touches you would expect. Fit wise its ideal if you are taller. He's 6ft 2, but a medium, and it is long enough. I generally find Rab kit overall comes up long, including in the ladies stuff, which is great. I bought the dark grey because it would go with everything, because whilst obviously I appreciate that its designed for climbing mountains, whilst this will be used for a lot of walking and sailing, its also going to get used for general day to day (such are the problems of the cold person!) and probably for work events in cavernous cold exhibition halls. Overall he (and I) are really impressed and whilst I did have some points to spend I would say its very good value for money at full price.

Lightweight but very warm. Can be used as a pillow when camping. Awesome colours and well made. Fast despatch by facewest, standard.

Rab Microlight Vest Review

It is indeed very light and comfortable, is snug and provides enough flexibility for climbing/moving. . . I use it as a 2nd or 3rd layer and for that it is well suited.

Great piece of kit- lightweight and comfortable fit makes it perfect on the fell, and looks good around town too.
