The RAB Alpine Generator Jacket is a premium outerwear style for those who are in search of a way to stay protected from the elements when spending extended periods in the great outdoors. The jacket is achieved with Primaloft Gold Insulation with Cross Core technology, which was originally developed by NASA to drive home its impressive insulating capabilities. The jacket also features diamond-shaped threads instead of the conventional round ones to offer a tighter weave that is as strong as possible when it comes to water and abrasion resistance.
The RAB Alpine Generator Jacket weighs in at 478-grams (for the medium size option), which makes it a truly lightweight option that is positioned for availability in fall 2021.
