Rab Vapour-rise Lite

Available in our Peebles branch and costing £100 the Rab Vapour-rise Lite is an active cut soft shell jacket constructed from wind resistant Pertex® Equilibrium combined with a lightweight wicking lining for warmer days. By balancing wind resistance and breathability the Vapour-rise Lite Jacket creates a comfortable operating environment through a wide range of activities. For high intensity activities like running and mountain biking the Vapour-rise Lite makes an excellent cold-weather outer layer and in warmer weather it comes into it’s own for hill-wallking and mountaineering use. If, like us, you enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities all year round, the Vapour-rise Lite could easily become one of your most versatile garments. A size medium weighs only 390g and features include:


 
  • Excellent wicking properties and fast drying fabrics
  • Collar drawcord to help keep out the elements (men’s)
  • 2 optimum access chest pockets
  • Reflective trim details
  • Full length 2 way zip
  • Single exit hem drawcord
  • Adjustable laminated Velcro cuff tabs
