The Rab Kinetic Alpine is a lightweight and comfortable men's jacket, which is happy to be your companion on multi-day expeditions, from hiking to mountaineering. The jacket features recycled Stretch Knit Proflex fabric with a breathable, waterproof membrane and a fast-wicking underlayer to quickly wick away moisture during energetic climbs. In addition, Stretch Nylon Woven Proflex panels are used in the hip, arm, shoulders and hood to protect you from abrasion and exposure to tough, technical climbs. The Kinetic is designed with a closer fit than usual, while the flexible dual fabric construction is combined with a range of high-end features. The hood of the Kinetic Alpine is helmet compatible and keeps you dry, comfortable and mobile. Star yet flexible, waterproof yet breathable, this is the ultimate 'hard' softshell for a dedicated alpine adventure!
The water-repellent capacity of clothing is often described in the form of millimeters of water column. The water column says something about the amount of water pressure a substance can have per square centimeter before it starts to leak. This jacket has a water column of 10,000 mm. This means that the substance leaks through when it is under pressure from 10 meters of water.
The breathability of clothing is expressed in g/m²/24 h with the Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR). The following applies: the higher the MVTR value, the better the breathability. This jacket has a breathability of 35,000 g/m². This means that one square meter of this fabric is 35,000 grams in 24 hours.
Polyester is a synthetic material made from petroleum. It is a durable, smooth fabric that feels soft. In addition, it is lightweight, does not need to be ironed and dries quickly. Polyester is also, like many other materials, harmful to the environment. It is not biodegradable and contributes to the plastic soup in the ocean. However, polyester can be recycled very well. The use of recycled polyester reduces both waste and the dependence on petroleum as a source. Recycled polyester is therefore a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative.
