Rab Borealis Hooded Women's Jacket

Lightweight, packable, and incredibly versatile, this all-mountain softshell is at home whether you're running a windy ridgeline, ski touring, or scaling a rockface.

Perfect for scrambling up mountains, the Borealis Hooded Jacket is the ideal addition to your outdoor adventures. Constructed using a lightweight Matrix double weave, this jacket offers an abundance of comfort and stretch so you can remain comfortable at all times. The lightweight fabrication offers a two-way stretch so you'll never feel restricted as you explore the unbeaten path. The stretchy fabrication allows you to achieve a full range of motion in all directions and wind resistance alongside high breathability ensures complete comfort in any weather. The wind-resistant fabrication helps to block out cold winds so you can remain warm when temperatures drop. As well as this, the jacket allows a comfortable level of ventilation that keeps you cool when temperatures rise. The fabrication allows cool air to flow throughout the garment whilst, at the same time allowing hot, humid air to escape; this creates a perfect microclimate for your skin to thrive in. The jacket has also been treated with DWR which works to repel light rain. To provide added protection, a low-volume hood can be used to shield your face when the weather takes a turn for the worse. A regular fit is designed to be slim fitting but not too tight, it supplies comfortable coverage that moves with you and provides enough room for layering if you require it with a low profile hem that is comfortable under a harness. The fit also ensures freedom of movement because your clothing choice should never inhibit your natural motion. A YKK Vislon front zip exists for complete temperature control, it can be worn up to seal in the heat and zipped down to release an intolerable heat build-up, and elasticated cuffs seal out the elements. Completing the jacket are two zippered pockets that are perfect for storing small essentials or a refuge for your hands when the temperature drops.
