Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

What is the Microlight Jacket?

The Microlight Jacket is a lightweight, insulated down jacket designed for hiking, hillwalking, climbing and general mountain use in cool conditions.

This updated version builds Rab's long-standing icon, features the same dependable warmth and packability, now with a refined design, enhanced fit and even more responsible construction. It's still a hugely versatile and reliable jacket that works superbly as an insulating layer as part of your overall technical layering system.

Materials & Technology

Pertex® Quantum with NetPlus® Outer

The Microlight Jacket uses an exclusive, fully recycled Pertex® Quantum fabric with NetPlus® yarn made from recycled fishing nets.

NetPlus® is developed in partnership with Bureo, which collects discarded fishing nets from coastal communities and recycles them into high-performance nylon yarn. This helps tackle one of the most harmful forms of ocean plastic pollution while reducing reliance on virgin fossil fuels. But don't worry, this isn't a compromise for the sake of sustainability. Pertex® NetPlus fabrics are engineered to match the same durability, strength and performance standards as traditional Pertex® materials, meaning you get the same wind resistance, packability and reliability as before.

The fabric itself uses a blend of finer 20D yarns in one direction and tougher 30D yarns in the other, which creates a tight weave that keeps the material's weight low, without impacting its levels of durability.

Overall, the material offers the same lightweight, wind-resistant performance as before, just with an even more responsible and slightly lighter construction, making the jacket ideal for general mountain use.

700 Fill Power Recycled Hydrophobic Down

For warmth, the Microlight Alpine is filled with 126g of 700FP recycled down with Grangers hydrophobic finish for maximum loft (fluffiness) and warmth. This Recycled Down is made from a mix of different types of reclaimed down within the jacket, creating a unique, much more responsible type of insulation.

If you're a little unsure about what down actually is, it is made up of clusters of tiny feather strands that trap heat. As the down lofts (fluffs up) it can trap more warmth than if it were to be compacted into a small space. Most down insulation comes from ducks and geese, and Rab's recycled down uses a mixture of both.

The down is treated with a Grangers fluorocarbon-free Hydrophobic finish called Grangers Down Defend®. This hydrophobic down treatment is bluesign® approved and helps keep down lofted in damp conditions. It gives the down over 375x more durability than untreated down, extending the lifespan of your jacket.

Fluorocarbon-Free DWR Finish

The outer is finished with a fluorocarbon-free DWR (durable water repellent) coating to provide light water resistance for added protection in changeable weather conditions. However, please note that this does not make the jacket waterproof - we always recommend carrying a waterproof shell for wet conditions.

Features and Functionality

Refined Micro & Nano Baffle Construction

One of the key updates of this latest Microlight Jacket is the combination of micro and nano stitch-through baffles. This change helps to improve heat retention in key areas while maintaining maximum mobility and helping prevent cold spots from forming over time. This clever dual-baffle construction delivers more efficient warmth without increasing the jacket's weight or bulk.

Lightweight Insulated Zip

The jacket is fastened with a lightweight YKK® centre front zip with an insulated zip baffle to help reduce heat loss through the zip while keeping weight and bulk to a minimum.

Same Reliable Pocket Layout

For storage, you'll find two zipped hand pockets and a chest pocket offering ample storage for your daily essentials, such as a mobile phone, gloves, and snacks.

Packable Performance

Just like the previous model, the Microlight Jacket is highly compressible, packing down into its own pocket for compact storage when not in use and taking up minimum space in your pack. However, please note that we recommend storing your down jacket fully lofted at home to protect the down and extend its lifespan.

Adjustable Hem and Cuffs

Elasticated cuffs ensure maximum insulation around the wrists, whilst providing a comfortable fit around bulky gloves to effectively seal in the warmth and keep out the weather. At the bottom, you get a drawcord at the hem to tailor the fit over various layers to maximise warmth and help seal out cold drafts.

Key Features

  • Lightweight Pertex® Quantum with NetPlus®, a fabric yarn made from fully traceable post-consumer recycled fishing nets
  • Zoned micro and nano baffle construction for increased down loft, optimising heat retention
  • Articulated sleeves for improved fit and comfort
  • Lightweight YKK® centre front zip with insulated zip baffle
  • Two YKK® zipped hand pockets and large zipped chest pocket
  • Integrated packaway pocket with clip-in loop
  • Elasticated cuffs and drawcord adjustable hem

How does the Microlight Jacket fit?

The Microlight Jacket features Rab's regular fit, which is designed to sit comfortably over base and midlayers. It's trim enough to layer under a shell but not restrictive, making it versatile across different layering systems.

The jacket features an updated, refined fit which feels even better on than previous versions, providing better movement throughout the arms and shoulders. However, please note that this doesn't affect the jacket's size, so just choose your regular size.

What is the Microlight Jacket best for?

  • Hillwalking and mountain hiking
  • Climbing and mountaineering
  • Cold, dry conditions
  • Layering under a waterproof shell
  • Everyday outdoor use in cooler months
