Microlight Shield Waterproof Down Jacket Men's

【Store Manager's Comments】

Selling at a pace of one jacket every 4 minutes, the Microlight, Rab's signature down jacket, finally has a waterproof model!Combining warmth and waterproof performance (20,000mm), you won't need to bother carrying two jackets around anymore, will you?

Like the standard Microlight, the 700-fill power down is treated with Grangers Down Defend finish. (This collaboration is unique to Rab.) Add to that a 2-layer Pertex Shield, and the result is the ideal waterproof, breathable down jacket!

This Microlight Shield Jacket combines weather resistance, versatility, and the proven reliability of the Microlight. It is a waterproof down jacket that truly has it all.

While other companies offer waterproof down jackets made with Gore-Tex, there isn't really a brand yet that has established a truly alpine-ready waterproof down jacket.

Starting in the Fall/Winter of 2026, Rab is ready to become the leader in this field!

【Sizing】

Store Manager (170cm/68kg): UK Size S (If you prefer a loose fit, M is an option...)

Rab products use UK sizing.
Also, depending on the model, Rab items come in slim or regular fits. For myself, I often choose a UK M for slim-fit models and a UK S for regular-fit models.

Since this is a regular fit, I chose UK S.
When selecting your size, I recommend going one size down from your usual size.

Model: 188cm / Wearing UK Size M

【Manufacturer's Description】

Leave your waterproof shell jacket at home for those cold, rainy hikes in autumn or winter adventures. The Microlight Shield Jacket is designed to minimize your gear by combining warmth with full waterproof performance, serving the purpose of both a waterproof jacket and a down jacket. It features a 2-layer Pertex® Shield waterproof outer, allowing you to stand firm against harsh weather without feeling weighed down.

700FP down is strategically placed in baffles of varying sizes. This optimizes warmth-to-weight and minimizes bulk under the arms, allowing you to move freely in mountainous terrain without restriction.

Durable and repairable, the Microlight Shield Jacket is built to last through many future adventures, making it your strongest partner in rain, cold, and harsh winter environments.

• Small nano-baffles on the sides and underarms for optimized mobility.
• Larger micro-baffles increase loft and warmth where you need it most.
• When a storm approaches, stay protected with the adjustable, stiff-peaked hood that keeps rain off your face.
  
  
  
• Fully articulated sleeves for unrestricted movement.
  
  
• Two hand pockets placed behind the down baffles to maximize warmth for cold hands.
  
  
• Zipped chest pocket with enough space for snacks, maps, etc.
