Women Rab Womens Nexus Jacket

Jump to: Our Verdict / Features / Specifications

An incredibly stretchy fleece that won’t restrict any outdoor pursuits.

Rab says: 

A lightweight, Thermic™ G stretch fleece midlayer made with 100% recycled fabric, a full length zip and close-fitting collar. Offering superb mobility, breathability and temperature regulation, it’s perfect for hiking, climbing and mountaineering.

Our Verdict

This fleece has an extraordinary amount of stretch and is incredibly unrestrictive, so as well as hiking and biking, this jacket would be brilliant for indoor and outdoor rock climbing and bouldering.

The Thermic™ G fleece helps trap warm air close to the skin but ventilates fast when the jacket is opened; brilliant for sunny calm days, but I would advise a wind shell in cooler conditions as the wind will go right through it.  

I often find that more technical fleeces have a habit of riding up, but this fit well and didn’t cause any irritation. Sadly, no thumb loops, which is my only negative
