Reviews & Ratings for Rab Microlight Vest - Men's — 26 reviews — Page 1

My husband is picky about clothing, but he loves this vest. Campsaver was easy to work with and provided great service.

Very well made down vest, with good insulation, three nice large pockets, well fitting collar that comes high, nicely done drawstrings at the bottom. Highly recommended.
I think the hydrophobic treated down makes sense. The little stuff sack is much easier to use than trying to squeeze the garment into a pocket. As for use, I bought it mainly to be able to put on and take off quickly over a shell for added warmth when stopping while back country skiing in cold conditions. Still fits nicely under a shell if I want to wear it there. At 6’ 185 lbs a L would have been right for regular wear, but I went with the XL.

I purchased one of these 2 years ago. It is well fitting, and thinner than a 'puffy' vest, makes it a perfect layering piece under a shell, or another insulated jacket without adding an unnecessary bulk.
It's always in my pack, even in warmer months. It's one of those garments that you're really glad you have it with you!
the one I own is orange on the inside. It's not designed as a reversible vest, but its been handy during hunting season around here!

This is a very premium vest, with quality durable materials suitable for regular use. Note: It is certainly not the lightest, nor the very warmest for the weight, but is not out of its league on the trail either and simply looks amazing. I think this is best suited for regular trail/city duty but does not replace the higher fill power, lighter and more expensive techy pieces...but then would you honesty just carry a vest for high alpine scrambles and summit attempts anyway?

I am really amazed at the light weight of this vest. It appears to be very well made and I like the baffles that keep the down in place. It has an athletic fit, so if you are a really pudgy, you may want to order one size up.

I purchased this Vet (small size) it was a little bit tight in bottom of my vet.
the color is beautiful and the material is excellent.

Rab Microlight Vest is branch name and quality of this vet is elegant.
I will continue to shop Rab product to get another down jactket
anyway, I am happy with the product.

Thanks

It's thicker than I anticipated. Very warm and fits very nicely. Wish it was foldable into to pocket but it needs to be folded into a separate mesh bag.
I'd recommend this to others searching for a warm, high quality Rab vest.

I've tried many vests and most fit loosely. I keep myself in shape and this Rab vest fits just right. It's warm enough for Seattle. I would definitely recommend if you're in shape, it might be tight otherwise.

One con is the zipper is on the non-American side (didn't want to say wrong side).

I was looking for another vest after purchasing a few over the years. I am 6'0" and 190 lbs with a 34/35 waist. I needed something that fit me better than the vests I have been wearing (North Face 650 fill -Large). This is a truly exceptional vest. The fit is perfect for anyone who is relatively fit. I had been struggling with the size of the vests since the Med was too small and the large was too big in most brands. This is perfect. The quality is also exceptional. It is made very well and keeps me very warm without a lot of bulk. It should be noted that the collar is. Little higher than others. The only negative that is see is that the logo is in white. I would prefer a more subtle logo. Regardless, I would buy this vest above any other that I have ever tried or seen. I love it and I would not hesitate to purchase it if you are considering it at all. I will also bee looking at More products from Rab since the quality and fit is perfect.

Warm, sleek, good fit.
