What is the Neutrino Pro?
The Neutrino Pro is an exceptionally warm, reliable and lightweight down-filled insulated jacket that offers durable protection against the elements with minimal weight and pack size. This versatile jacket is capable of just about anything, from UK winter walking, mountaineering, winter Alpine ascents and warmth whilst stationary in freezing conditions.
What is it made of?
Insulation: Stuffed with 230g of superior European Hydrophobic Goose Down with a very impressive 800 fill power. Rab is now using Hydrophobic down in all their down jackets. Basically, every down cluster is treated with Nikwax products to make them perform better in damp conditions. Although Hydrophobic down is not waterproof, it dries much faster, absorbs less water and retains loft far better than untreated down.
Fabric: The Neutrino Pro is protected by lightweight but tough recycled Pertex Quantum Pro fabric, which offers protection from windblown snow and light rain without adding bulk. Despite the high water resistance of the face fabric, the Neutrino Pro is not totally waterproof, so always pack a shell if, and when, the weather turns really nasty. On the inside of the jacket Rab have used recycled lightweight nylon with a soft smooth finish to allow easy layering and to maximise comfort and breathability.
What are the features?
Despite the low overall weight of 502g there is still the usual Rab attention to detail; a proper wired peak to the down-filled hood, an internal zippered security pocket, water-resistant zippers on the front and the pockets, making this a really well specified alpine jacket.
How does it fit?
The Neutrino Pro uses Rab's Regular fit which means that it is tailer to sit close to your body so you don't have lots of excess fabric flapping around in bad weather but also has enough room underneath it so you can pop a couple of layers on when it gets extra chilly.
