The Women’s Cirrus Flex Vest has had a massive update for this season! The Cirrus Flex 2.0 is a synthetically insulated, warm, close fitting piece with stretchy side panels for breathability – now with recycled fabrics and insulation! Ideal as a layering piece when temperatures drop.
What is it made of?Insulation: Rab have used Recycled Primaloft Silver in the Cirrus Flex 2.0 Vest; Primaloft Silver is a synthetic insulation that provides a high performance alternative to natural down. It was designed to mimic the warmth and feel of natural down with all the benefits and none of the drawbacks. It retains its loft when wet, breathes superbly, has no allergens, retains warmth even when wet (more so than Hydrophobic down), compresses easily and dries exceptionally quickly. PrimaLoft Silver Luxe Insulation is exceptionally soft and is used throughout the Vest.
Not only does the Cirrus use Rab's synthetic insulation, but also a Thermic stretch fleece along the sides to increase airflow, breathability and comfort. This fleece allows air to pass through, cooling you down when working hard or allowing sweat to escape while using it as a midlayer.
Outer fabric: The Cirrus Flex 2.0 Vest uses Pertex Quantum 20D recycled polyamide, providing an incredibly lightweight yet durable shell to protect you from wind and light rain. It's also exceptionally breathable for slightly more intense activities such as mountaineering and climbing.
Lining Fabric: The Vest uses a 20D recycled Atmos polyamide ripstop fabric that glides easily over the top of layers.
What are the features?Starting from the top the Cirrus features an insulated collar to protect your neck when the temperatures drop. You get high quality YKK zips throughout, two warm hand pockets and two internal drop pockets to keep your kit safe. Semi-elasticated armholes and a hem drawcord help to seal out the elements. When not required the Cirrus will pack into its own pocket and stash almost unnoticed into your pack making it perfect layer for all winter mountain activities.
How does it fit?The Cirrus uses Rab’s Women’s ‘Slim Fit’ which means it sits close to your body for optimal performance, but you can still fit a couple of thin layers on underneath it.
