Rab Vapour-rise Flex Jacket
- Our Price
- £125.00
A regular hillwalker known to us was packing for a trip, held up his Vapour-rise Flex jacket and asked his wife "Why am I taking this?" and got the reply "Because you wear it all the time!" He does, as do many outdoor people we know, because it's an incredibly versatile piece of kit. It's water and wind resistant, ultra light and has wicking abilities second to none. The Flex is a tweak on the original design, adding stretchy side panels to get a neater fit, which should benefit runners and cyclists. Many people will use the VR Flex as a stand alone top for high energy use, but it also works as a comfortable mid layer for hillwalking and general use. It does everything that a fleece does but at a small fraction of the weight, and with the added benefits of its excellent weather resistance thrown in. As good a piece of kit as we've ever stocked.

The explorers choice for high quality, technical outdoor clothing and sleeping bags. Rab have been making outstanding quality kit since 1981, when Rab Carrington, one of Britain's foremost mountaineers, combined his knowledge of the mountains with the skills he had learnt in South America and set up shop at home in Sheffield making sleeping bags.
