FAQs
What is PrimaLoft Silver insulation?
PrimaLoft Silver is a synthetic insulation made from recycled materials, designed to mimic the properties of down, providing excellent warmth, loft, and compressibility while remaining warm even when wet.
Is the jacket waterproof?
The jacket is water-resistant thanks to its DWR-treated shell, but it is not fully waterproof. It can withstand light rain and snow, but for heavy precipitation, a waterproof outer shell is recommended.
What activities is this jacket suitable for?
The Rab Cirrus Alpine Jacket is suitable for a wide range of activities, including climbing, mountaineering, skiing, trekking, hiking, and general outdoor use in cold conditions.
How should I store the jacket?
Store the jacket in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing it for extended periods to maintain the insulation's loft. A breathable storage bag is ideal.
What is the warranty on the Rab Cirrus Alpine Jacket?
Rab provides a warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. For specific warranty details, refer to Rab's official website.
Can I use this jacket in wet conditions?
While the jacket is water-resistant, it's best to use it in conditions with light rain or snow. For prolonged exposure to wet conditions, consider pairing it with a waterproof shell.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the Rab size chart, or try it on at a retail store, for best fit. Consider layering when choosing a size.
Troubleshooting
Insulation appears to be clumping or losing loft.
Wash and tumble dry the jacket according to the care instructions. The heat from the dryer can help restore the insulation's loft.
Water is soaking through the jacket.
The DWR finish may need re-treatment. Wash the jacket, then apply a DWR spray according to the product instructions.
Zippers are sticking.
Apply a zipper lubricant to the zippers to ensure smooth operation.
