Rab Men's Xenair Alpine Light Insulated Jacket

Designed for unpredictable conditions and fluctuating activity levels, this lightweight synthetic insulated jacket delivers a finely tuned balance of warmth and breathability to keep the wearer comfortable no matter how the day unfolds. It is filled with dual-weight PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ insulation, which is strategically lighter in high-heat areas to better regulate body temperature. Exceptionally versatile, the jacket can serve as a technical outer layer during swift summer ascents or as a reliable midlayer in colder weather. Now updated with a new, even more breathable lining, the Xenair Alpine Light is engineered to respond seamlessly to changes in pace and temperature—removing layers becomes a thing of the past.

This jacket is built for elevation, with articulated sleeves refined for climbing and scrambling, and a low-profile hood designed to sit comfortably beneath a helmet. Three zipped pockets offer room for trail essentials, including a chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sack with a convenient harness attachment loop. Elasticated cuffs accommodate gloves with ease, while a single-sided rear hem adjustment helps seal out the chill when conditions turn brisk.

With its innovative lining and body-mapped insulation, the Xenair Alpine Light Jacket ensures adaptable comfort through every high-energy pursuit.

Body mapping technology

Fabric is carefully chosen based on the specific demands of each area of the body—whether it calls for greater stretch, enhanced protection, or improved breathability. This thoughtful placement results in more efficient performance gear, tailored to both the activity and the environment, ensuring lasting comfort from the first stride to the final step.
