Push your limits with the Rab Xenair Alpine Flex Insulated Jacket, designed for women who thrive in dynamic, high-output adventures. Whether you're tackling a tough ascent, navigating technical climbs, or setting out on a brisk alpine hike, this jacket delivers warmth without compromise.

Featuring PrimaLoft® Gold Active+ insulation, it balances warmth and breathability, eliminating the need to constantly adjust layers. Thermic™ stretch fleece side panels enhance mobility, ensuring unrestricted movement on steep pitches and scrambles. The Pertex® Quantum Air fabric offers wind resistance while maintaining exceptional breathability, keeping you comfortable through fluctuating conditions.

Designed for versatility, this ultralight and packable jacket works as both a breathable midlayer and a protective outer shell. The under-helmet hood provides extra warmth on exposed ridges, while pre-curved, articulated sleeves allow for full reach without restriction. A lightweight YKK® VISLON® front zip with chin guard enhances comfort, and the rear hem adjustment ensures a secure fit.

When the climb heats up, stash it in its own pocket and clip it to your harness. Whether you're mountaineering, hill walking, or layering for unpredictable conditions, the Xenair Alpine Flex is built to keep you moving.
