Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

Highly mobile, warm, and breathable midlayer for winter pursuits.

Rab says: 

A warm, breathable, high stretch midlayer that moves with you, perfect for winter conditions. Regulating temperature with body mapped grid fleece fabrics it offers insulation and mobility, ideal for climbing and technical ascents.

Our Verdict

The gridded fleece fabric feels very nice against the skin, minimizing skin contact by limiting surface area, this helps to wick moister away without compromising on warmth.

The turtle neck design is brilliant at keeping the heat in, yet the half-length zip is fantastic at quickly venting heat if needs be.

It would work very well on cooler nights, as an additional layer to sleep in, as it would keep you warm without getting sweaty.

It’s a close athletic fit, that offers a large degree of movement, so would be good for any outdoor pursuits.
