Rab Latok GTX Bib

The Rab Latok GTX Bib is a serious hardshell pant built to tackle the harshest mountain conditions. Engineered for durability, these bibs feature a 3-layer GORE-TEX Pro fabric with a highly breathable ePE membrane and PFCecFree DWR, offering complete waterproof protection without compromising on sustainability. Reinforced with ultra-tough Spectra Ripstop at the lower hem, they're crafted to resist sharp crampon snags and abrasive rock. The integrated Matrix stretch back panel provides a flexible, tailored fit while maintaining full coverage. With a regular cut and 615g weight (size M), the Latok GTX Bib is a go-to choice for mountaineers seeking dependable performance, long-lasting weatherproofing, and rugged protection for demanding alpine environments.

GORE-TEX is now a totally PFC free waterproof membrane designed by Gore to be more sustainable and cut out harmful long chain 'forever chemicals' found in normal PTFE waterproof membranes. The ePE membrane is a thinner than older GORE-TEX and GORE-TEX PRO, which results in a softer and more supple feel. It doesn't have the same stiff 'cardboardy' feel as older Gore membranes. The biggest performance difference you are most likely to notice is the DWR treatment. Unfortunately flurocarbons are some of the best, most hydrophobic chemicals out there. Getting rid of them does hit performance so you will notice that the nice 'beading' effect disappears quite quickly. Don't worry your GORE-TEX jacket is still waterproof, but to maintain the beading effect you will need to top up the DWR more regularly

Built for technical performance, the Latok GTX Bib includes full-length YKK AquaGuard side zips, allowing for easy on-off over bulky layers or boots. Knee articulation and snap-adjustable hems deliver exceptional freedom of movement and compatibility with a variety of mountaineering boots. A bellowed external thigh pocket provides accessible storage for essentials like gloves or maps, while the long-length bib design ensures reliable snow and spindrift protection. Dual hook-and-loop waist adjusters give a secure, customizable fit during long days on steep terrain. Finished with internal snow gaiters and tough crampon patches, the Latok GTX Bib is a robust, feature-packed shell for high-altitude, high-exertion pursuits.
