Windswept trails. Chilly belays. Summit snack breaks. A boost of post-run warmth. Whatever your day in the mountains looks like, the Microlight is up to the task. Lightweight and low-bulk, it’s easy to layer and built to accompany you year-round. We’ve placed high-lofting 700FP down in body-mapped baffles, with smaller nano baffles down the sides for mobility, and larger micro baffles on your back and front for optimised warmth where you need it. For the first time, the Microlight is constructed with Pertex® Quantum with NetPlus®, a fabric yarn made from fully traceable post-consumer recycled fishing nets. This soft-feel fabric is windproof, breathable, and will withstand getting dropped at the crag or stuffed in a pack. Highly versatile and a Rab bestseller, the Microlight is a down vest you can live in, offering reassuring warmth and familiar refuge when you need it most.

Was looking for a lightweight warm vest for travel and hiking that was not black! Found this after some searching... Dwight's were especially awesome and got it into the country for me, still at sale price. Guess where I went looking for my next lot of kit ;-) Vest itself fits to size, packs down to a small and light bundle, and in other words, just as advertised!
Rab vest is fantastic thanks. Exactly what I wanted, efficient service and super fast delivery. Thank you
Great light weight vest
Great weight to lightness ratio. Fits well but I do not like the collar. It has a habit when open of rubbing your chin.
