This lightweight softshell hoody from Rab is their best-selling and most versatile all-mountain softshell. An amazingly versatile piece that is the perfect weight layer to put on when you need just a little more warmth and a lightweight short-sleeve or long-sleeve shirt just isn't quite warm enough. Wear this as a windshirt, mid-layer, or outer layer for extra abrasion protection while alpine rock climbing. Put this over a superlight puffy jacket for extra snag and abrasion resistance during cold weather activities when extra protection is needed but wearing a bulky or boardy full-on waterproof hardshell would be undesirable. This jacket could go with you on virtually any mountain outing, anywhere, and any time of the year. The low-profile under helmet hood is perfect to pull off and on to control your temperature as needed, and also works well over a thin skull cap or lightweight visored performance ball cap in colder or more blustery conditions. Wind resistant and highly breathable, this jacket is a great weight for most of your hiking, backpacking, ski touring, and light and fast mountaineering outings. It's also an extremely comfortable item for wearing around town.
