This lightweight, windproof hooded jacket is perfect for your spring and summer mountain escapades. Super practical and easy to pack, it's designed to be worn all day or easily stowed away for those breezy moments on the ridgeline.

Crafted from Rab's own Atmos™ fabric with a fluorocarbon-free DWR finish, the Vital Hoody offers impressive windproof and water-resistant qualities. Weighing in at just 130g and packing down small, it’s a versatile piece that’s great to have handy in your pack during your spring and summer adventures, providing immediate wind protection when you need it most. With its breathable, fast-drying fabric and regular fit design, you’ll feel comfortable wearing it all day long.

The hood features a stiffened peak, rear volume adjustment, and an elasticated opening to keep it snug even in gusty conditions. Equipped with a full-length YKK® front zip that includes an internal storm flap to block draughts and a roll-over chin guard that prevents rubbing from the zip. A smart snap closure at the chest lets you use the zip as a deep vent for cooling down while keeping everything securely in place. Dropped shoulder seams ensure seamless comfort with your pack, elasticated cuffs protect against chilly breezes, and two zipped hand pockets can hold onto gloves or hats when they’re needed.

This jacket is perfect for all sorts of mountain activities—from running and hiking swiftly across trails to scrambling along ridgelines or hitting the mountain biking paths.
