Biodegradable water repellency breaks down after product lifespan
Inspired by the demands of big wall climbing, the Borealis Jacket is Rab's lightest softshell, combining wind resistance, high breathability and a small packsize. The perfect climber's piece, it's as at home on a windy crag as it is high up the climbing wall. The Borealis Jacket is made with lightweight and stretchy Matrix fabric, allowing complete freedom of movement. Designed for use on long multi-pitch routes where the weather can be variable, while features like the YKK front zip with chin guard and half hem drawcord offer adaptability and shelter from the wind as conditions vary. The two YKK zipped, mesh-lined Napoleon chest pockets ensure access to the essentials when wearing a harness.
