Most Helpful Positive Review Great deal. Don't fear the lack of product info

Just received this today. It is made of Pertex Quantum material and appears to me to be the Rab Cirrus (which was discontinued) in about every aspect. Very light. Packs into own pocket, athletic fit, snug fit under arms in what seems to be a pretty typical Rab fashion. For reference I'm 6'0, 202lbs....

Most Helpful Negative Review Ultra light/ pack able

So far only have used it once, but worked great! Definitely size up one size. The non adjustable hood doesn’t really seem to be a problem. Like the fact that it has a fairly large inside pocket, which for a windbreaker is unusual.

This product is very light

by storm pro, Verified Owner from DE, United States Written on March 11, 2021

This jacket is very light and waterproof. In addition, packing is very small and can be carried at any time. However, the part with a slightly long arm is a disadvantage. It is recommended for those who need a light waterproof jacket.

Love rab quality and details

by Thomas, from SC, United States Written on March 9, 2020

This was a steal at 22 bucks!! Wore a light fleece under this snowtubing with the kids. Lots of wind but this blocked it well. I was warm and the pertex quantum breathed well. Snug around the shoulders but it makes me look ripped. Get this ultralight for all occasions.

Pros:

Light and good pockets

Cons:

NONE

Best Used for:

Ultralight packing

good fabric, very light

by Gary, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on February 23, 2020

This jacket is made by Pertex fabric, which is very very thin and light, but it seems that strong as well. I like the big front pocket which is the same as on my apine GTX jacket. Nice feet, only thing is that the sleeve is bit long. but not a problem.

Pros:

good fabric, very light

Cons:

long sleeve

Best Used for:

HIKING

Size consideration

by David, from CO, United States Written on October 6, 2019

5' 9" 175 needed XL. VERY LIGHT, AND PACKABLE. PERFECT TO JUST TIE AROUND YOUR WAIST FOR A ADDITIONAL WEATHER BARRIER ON WARM DAY HIKES. DETAIL DESCRIPTION ON WEBSITE SHOULD EXPLAIN PERTEX. A TERRIFIC VALUE AT THIS PRICE.

Very useful

by Oslo, Verified Owner from Norway Written on August 16, 2019

It performs very well on the windy mountains of Norway. it is very light and comfortable. It gives you a worm feeling and you do need feel the cold wind. I would certainly buy another for my kids if i find the right size.

Pros:

light & roomy

Cons:

None

Sizing a bit off

by kel, from IL, United States Written on July 1, 2019

I own multiple Rab garments and I noticed that the sleeves can be too long. This one is no exception. Also, this layer runs a little small (European sizing). Other than that, good materials, excellent craftsmanship.
This is more of a "windy morning run" layer than a "alpine trekking" one.

Is there such a thing as a uni-*** zipper?

by Dave, from OH, United States Written on June 14, 2019

I am 6' & 195lbs and the jacket fits me very well., (maybe a little tight in the underarm area). The jacket looks great, is fairly lite, functions very well, and very affordable. The only negative I have about this jacket is the main zipper is on the wrong side, I find this to be a little odd., maybe they are made in California (ha ha).

Nice featured lightweight raingear

by Cmac, from CO, United States Written on April 21, 2019

As usual, Rab has created a very nicely featured lightweight shell with great performance and high quality construction. It folds up into it's own pocket and stores about the size of a fist. This will always be in my daypack to protect from light showers or wind during warmer months. I haven't tried it in wet weather , but believe that the fabric will live up to stated claims. The only negative is that the arm holes are a little tight in the shoulder, but athletic fits help keep overall weights down.

Amazing Deal for Price

by zddz, Verified Owner from PA, United States Written on April 18, 2019

This jacket is very light. Not the lightest wind jacket in existence, but it makes up for that in coverage. It's very comfortable. Got stuck in a heavy thunderstorm when I expected it to be a light rain at worst. Was only really coming down for 20 minutes or so, but this jacket remained totally dry and I wasn't cold at all while all my friends were soaked and cold from the wind. Fits quite tight around the armpits and can be difficult to put on and off because of that, but I'm inclined to think that helps performance as the jacket moves well with your body. Hood clip is nice to get it out of the way, but it doesn't work well since the jacket is so thin that it just slides out pretty frequently. Not as breathable as I'd like, but not terrible.

Feather weight!

by grivai, Verified Owner from New Zealand Written on March 3, 2019

With the exception of being too small, mainly across the chest, this is an excellent wind jacket. Featherlite, nice details, spacious pockets and a snug hood despite it having no adjustment options. Pertex Quantum is well known for being breathable and during. I would size up... typically I wear a small and like slim fit gear, but my chest is fairly broad for being 5'8.

Pros:

Great price, excellent light weight wind resistance

Cons:

Too slim across the chest
