Product Information

Full details

The Rab Downpour Waterproof Jacket is designed for female outdoor enthusiasts who need a reliable, packable shell for unpredictable weather. Utilizing 2.5-layer Pertex Shield fabric, this jacket offers an excellent balance of waterproofing and breathability, making it ideal for hiking and general outdoor use. While it excels in wet and windy conditions, users should note that as a lightweight shell, it is intended for layering rather than providing heavy thermal insulation.

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it can be machine washed. Always use a mild, non-detergent technical cleaner and avoid fabric softeners.

Does this jacket have an adjustable hood?

Yes, it features an adjustable hood with a stiffened peak for enhanced protection and visibility.

Can I wear this in winter conditions?

Yes, it is suitable for winter use as an outer shell, provided you are wearing adequate insulating layers underneath.

What is the weight of the jacket?

The jacket weighs approximately 341.5g.

Is the jacket fully windproof?

Yes, the Pertex Shield fabric is windproof, making it an excellent barrier against cold gusts.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are designed to be weather-resistant, but they are not fully waterproof, so we recommend storing sensitive electronics in a dry bag inside the pocket.

Troubleshooting

Water begins soaking into the fabric rather than beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off; wash the jacket with a technical detergent and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.

Feeling damp inside the jacket during activity

Ensure your layering system is moisture-wicking and use the underarm ventilation zips to improve airflow.

Zippers are feeling stiff or difficult to close

Clean the zipper tracks with a soft brush to remove grit and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant if necessary.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly packable for easy storage in a backpack
  • Excellent breathability for active pursuits
  • Effective storm guards and hood design for heavy rain
  • Underarm vents provide great temperature control
  • Environmentally conscious with recycled materials

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty thermal warmth
  • Lightweight construction requires care against abrasion
  • Requires proper maintenance to keep the DWR finish effective

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, keep the surface clean. Regularly wash the jacket using a technical garment cleaner designed for waterproof shells to remove dirt and oils that can clog the membrane. Once washed, tumble dry on a low setting or follow the manufacturer's specific DWR (Durable Water Repellent) reactivation instructions. When storing, ensure the jacket is completely dry to prevent mildew. The regular fit is designed to accommodate mid-layers like fleece or light synthetic jackets underneath without feeling overly restrictive.
