![]() ![]() ![]() The Womens Rab Neutrino Plus has a long torso for better core-body insulation, a helmet compatible hood, box wall construction and is filled with 800. With a whopping 1000 FP down fill, and a heat-reflective TILT lining that boosts warmth for no extra weight, this top-of-the-market jacket offers a surprising degree of insulating performance at an ultralight level of minimalism. The Rab Womens Neutrino Plus Down Jacket is a long bodied box wall down jacket that offers excellent insulation for winter weather conditions, thanks to the 800 fill power European goose down. Insulation: The Neutrino Pro All Black has been packed with 230g of superior European Hydrophobic Goose Down with a very impressive 800 fill power for maximum warmth without the weight or bulk. In use I do think you notice the difference that TILT makes. Rabs Mythic family of down jackets recently gained an ultralight addition, the Mythic G. This doesn’t make the jacket completely waterproof, but it does make it able to shrug off snow and light rain longer than an untreated down jacket. This is zoned across most of the jacket, including the hood, and with exception only of the armpits, where you might appreciate a bit less warmth. A bit like a foil space blanket (yet silent, and fully breathable), this shiny side not only looks bling, but serves an important purpose, reducing your body's radiant heat loss by - Rab say - up to 30%, while contributing nothing to weight or bulk. A standard construction for lighter weight down jackets, this may not be the most thermally efficient pattern, but has to be the lightest.Īdded to this is the TILT (Thermo Ionic Lining Technology, in case you're asking) layer, a reflective coating 'painted' onto the inner side of the lining. The down is held in stitch-through baffles. You get 127g of down in a men's size M, which at this quality is a meaningful amount for proper warmth while still giving you a compact and highly packable jacket. A down jacket is only as good as the stuff that's put in it, and in this case Rab have cut absolutely no corners, with a mega-lofty 1000FP European Goose Down fill.
