Description
<p>Why rework something established like the Microlight Vest at all? Rab must have thought the same question and came to the answer: Because you can improve something really good and above all make it more sustainable.</p><p>The Microlight waistcoat remains your light, small packable insulation waistcoat with a high thermal performance for mountain sports. But a slight modification to the chamber design now distributes the down more sensibly so that the insulation works best where you need it most.</p><p>The windproof, water-repellent Pertex® Quantum outer material is made entirely of recycled polyamide and is very durable. The down (84 g, size M) in the new Microlight waistcoat is also completely made from recycled sources. The high quality recycled down delivers outstanding performance and relieves the environment enormously.</p><p>The Nikwax® treatment also makes the down water repellent, making the Microlight Vest ideal for use in cold and humid conditions.</p>
