Extremely lightweight whilst really warm. This jacket exceeds all expectations

Warm Jacket

I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions

I purchased this recently for an up-coming trip to Greenland. Purchased size MEDIUM. I have tried it on and it fits well. I am 5'-8", 170lbs, 32"-waist and the coat fits correctly The coat has adequate room to be worn over a medium fleece and shell. I have not field tested yet because it is a very warm coat and the temps in the mid-Atalntic have been too warm. It is very compresable and appears to be quality construction.

Great fit. Very warm!

I use this for my walks and winter temps down to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. Not as bully as the Positron pro that I picked up before. Time will tell how durable it is. I'm 5'11.5, 178 lbs with a 32 inch waist and 44 inch chest. The medium is perfect for me when keeping 1 or 2 max slim layers. Adding more than that would make it too snug for me.

I returned it straight away.

I returned it straight away. I did not like how you could see the darker feathers, it looked like a pillow without a pillow case

Bizarre fit; beware Rab's fake reviews

So, I posted a review of this jacket on Rab's website. They took it down. I emailed and asked them why, and they said "we felt it was a personal opinion." In other words, they delete critical reviews of their products and only show you fake reviews and positive reviews! How sleazy! Anyway, this is well-made but horribly tailored jacket. It tapers severely from the chest to the hem. You can see it on the model, and on anybody wearing this jacket in online reviews: the fabric is slack around the chest and stretched taut around the hips/waist. The down gets compressed, which defeats the purpose. I am not at all overweight. I'm between small and medium and I bought a medium. Still too tight for a down jacket. Sizing up won't help because the chest area would be an empty bag. Forget about layering anything underneath. Also, the main zipper is good but the pocket zippers are flimsy. Too bad because there aren't many 900fp jackets out there, and this one has a good amount of down and would be very warm if it weren't tapered so weirdly that the down gets compressed. If you have a 45-inch chest and a 25-inch waist, it will probably fit well.

Great looking jacket and super

Great looking jacket and super warm I use it when visiting remote sites in Scotland

Toasty!

A superlight, very packable and incredibly warm jacket. My only gripe is the hood which needs a volume adjuster - worn without a helmet , if you turn your head you can only see the inside of your hood!

Excellent Jacket, packs down small

Excellent Jacket, packs down small and light. Great to wear and does a great job. Marmalade colour does allow the darker down to show through and I've been asked if I've got it dirty/stained already. Thanks Rab! :)

Light, warm extremely well made.

Light, warm extremely well made. Best quality down jacket.

Super light, super warm, excellent

Super light, super warm, excellent cold weather jacket. One concern would be even new, it looks like it has stains on in from the darker down showing through. Not an issue for me as it was bought as an expedition jacket, but some maybe put off if using for work or social activities.
