Comments about Rab Arete Jacket - Men's:

I love it. Just what I was looking for to replace a 10 year old North Face Nuptse. I'd like the overall diameter of the arms to be about an inch more to accommodate layers, and I don't really like the zipper pull on the left side (European, so I get it).

Bottom Line, BUY IT! Features where it counts.

  The Rab website has specific size measurements for their products. You can measure your chest and sleeve size to determine the proper jacket size for you. For example, you are concerned about your arms. The web site directs you to measure the sleeve length from center of the back of your neck to the cuff and then use the Rab chart to determine the correct size for you. http://us.rab.uk.com/help-advice/size-guide.html

  In order to fit this jacket properly, you need the measurements of your chest, waist and arm. Knowing these you will get a better fit when looking at the sizing chart.

Technology Used In The Arete Jacket - Men's

Baffled Construction

Baffles are chambers created between the outer shell and inner liner of a sleeping bag or jacket. These chambers hold the insulation and create an even distribution, preventing unwanted grouping of insulation. There are different types of baffles. A "stitched-through" baffle joins the outer shell and inner liner together by means of direct stitching. Heat loss through seams is a disadvantage of the stitched through baffle. Optimal warmth is achieved through the use of a "box wall" style baffle. This method uses additional material between the outer and inner materials to create a wall that unites the two layers and creates a slightly larger and more uniform baffle. Different variations on the box wall positioning create a variety of advanced baffle systems.

Down Insulation

Water foul, like geese and duck, actually provide one of the most efficient forms of insulation available. Down is the light, fluffy undercoating at the base of the feathers of waterfowl. Down is a multi-dimensional structure that insulates by creating pockets of still air that retain body heat. Down is highly breathable and exceptionally comfortable. It is longer lasting and much more compressible than synthetic insulation. A disadvantage of down insulation is its loss of efficiency in wet conditions. It will also take much longer to dry than a synthetic insulation. Down is available in different fill powers. Fill power is defined by the amount of loft that is gained under loft test conditions. The higher the fill power number the greater the loft and the greater the performance of the down insulation. Fill powers may range from 500 fill to 900+ fill power.
