This Rab Electron Pro Puffer Jacket is designed for women seeking a versatile, mid-weight insulated jacket suitable for mountain activities like walking and climbing, as well as everyday use in cooler seasons. Its key benefit lies in the balance of lightness, reliable warmth from 800FP down, and weather resistance from its Pertex® Quantum Pro fabric. A potential caveat is its regular fit, which may not suit those preferring a very snug or very loose silhouette.

The jacket is insulated with 800FP (Fill Power) European duck down, which offers an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio.
No, the jacket features a weather-resistant Pertex® Quantum Pro outer fabric with a DWR treatment, which repels light rain and snow. It is not fully waterproof and may require an additional waterproof shell in heavy precipitation.
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls until completely dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Yes, the hood is designed to be helmet-compatible and features an adjustable cord system and a stiff peak for full protection.
Midi baffle construction refers to the size of the chambers that hold the down insulation. This design helps to evenly distribute the down and prevent cold spots, offering a balanced mix of warmth and flexibility.
Pertex® Quantum Pro offers enhanced weather resistance with a polyurethane coating, providing better protection against wind and water compared to standard Pertex® Quantum, while maintaining breathability.
The weight can vary slightly by size. For reference, a UK size 10 typically contains around 170g (6oz) of down.
Ensure the jacket is completely dry by continuing to tumble dry on a low heat setting with clean tennis balls. Gently break up any remaining clumps by hand.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may need reapplication. Wash the jacket using a technical wash, then tumble dry. If repellency is still low, consider applying a re-waterproofing spray suitable for outdoor apparel.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of beeswax or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth to improve smooth operation. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Setup: This jacket requires no assembly. It is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the main zipper and pocket zippers are fully closed before wearing.
Compatibility: The jacket is designed with a regular fit, intended to be compatible with base layers and mid-layers for additional warmth. The helmet-compatible hood is designed to fit over most climbing helmets.
