I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Microlight Alpine Down Jacket - Women's

Description

Why We Like The Microlight Alpine Down Jacket

The Rab Microlight Alpine Down Jacket is our top choice for staying warm and comfortable during all kinds of outdoor activities. Whether you're climbing in the alpine, skiing in the backcountry, or just going about your daily commute, this jacket has got you covered.

The face fabric of the jacket is made with Pertex Microlight, which is not only incredibly lightweight but also highly durable. It can withstand the rigors of your outdoor adventures without weighing you down. Plus, the nylon lining ensures that the valuable feathers inside the jacket stay in place and don't poke out.

Key Features:

  • The jacket is lightweight, making it the perfect choice for keeping you warm during alpine expeditions.
  • The hydrophobic down insulation retains its warmth even when it comes into contact with light moisture.
  • The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish offers additional protection by keeping excess moisture at bay, ensuring maximum warmth.
  • The hand pockets are conveniently accessible even when wearing a harness.
  • The adjustable hood seals out the elements and prevents heat from escaping.
  • When not in use, the jacket can be easily packed into its own stuff sack for compact storage.
  • The slim fit design allows for easy layering beneath a shell and ensures a low profile.
