What is the Kangri Jacket?
The Kangri is a feature packed, reliable, comfortable and high performing shell jacket for year-round walking, trekking and general mountain activities. Using a Gore-Tex membrane, you're guaranteed to stay dry and comfortable in the worst conditions.
What is it made of?
Rab use a super tough 70D nylon throughout the jacket to ensure abrasion and general abuse is dealt with effectively. This outer fabric is treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) to prevent water sinking into the outer fabric and negatively affecting breathability. Underneath this outer fabric you'll find a Gore-Tex membrane which is guaranteed waterproof and windproof. Finally, a polyester inner fabric provides comfort next to skin.
What are the features?
Starting at the top as usual, Rab provide you with a fully adjustable hood with a wired peak. Moving down, a fleece-lined chin guard and back of neck wicks away sweat and increases comfort. Other useful features include two hand pockets, pit zips under each arm to dump heat quickly and effectively, an internal zipped security pocket, an elasticated hem, a waist drawcord with a one handed adjustment system and lastly some reflective logos for safety purposes. You get everything you need and nothing you don't.
Please note, the Kangri does not have a tab to roll the hood away.
How does it fit?
The Kangri fits into Rab's 'regular' fit block, meaning additional layers can be worn underneath without restriction or discomfort, however the multitude of adjustment points allows you to reduce the overall volume when just wearing a baselayer. A dropped hem provides extra coverage.
