What is the Rime Light IN Flex Vest?
It's a lightweight, durable, insulated gilet designed to provide light warmth and protection for autumnal days on the trail, hill walking, hiking, or even everyday errands.
What is it made of?
A Pertex® Quantum® Air recycled polyester face material feels smooth, soft, flexible, and lightweight. It's a great alternative to conventional materials because it keeps old materials and yarn in the loop, preventing them from going to landfills. Pertex® Quantum® Air also provides reliable wind and water resistance for changeable days on the hill.
Polartec® Power Grid™ lining is a lightweight, moisture-wicking fleece lining that enhances next-to-skin comfort whilst boosting the warmth of this gilet. It's incredibly breathable and still actively regulates temperature to help you feel comfortable all day long.
The vest is also insulated with Recycled Rope Insulation. This insulation is made from recycled climbing ropes in an effort to reduce industry waste and lower the environmental impact of this gilet. One massive benefit of synthetic insulation over down is that it provides ample warmth, even when damp, making it great for unpredictable conditions.
What are its features?
This gilet uses a hybrid construction that features stretchy panels to enhance freedom of movement and flexibility.
It has two backpack and harness-compatible zipped pockets, which are ideal for storing small essentials like trail snacks, energy gels, or doggy bags.
The hem is elasticated to enhance the overall fit, making it easier to slip layers over the top. It also seals in a little extra warmth to balance the body's microclimate further.
Lastly, this gilet is incredibly packable and can easily be stuffed into a kit bag, suitcase, or backpack without taking up excessive space. You can even stuff it into its own front-right pocket to keep it tidy!
