The Rab Cirrus Alpine Jacket in Black is designed for outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable warmth and weather protection in cold and damp conditions. Its key benefit lies in its high-lofting synthetic insulation, which maintains warmth even when wet, making it highly versatile for various activities from alpine climbing to winter skiing. While offering excellent water resistance, it is important to note that the jacket is not fully waterproof and is best suited for cold, damp, or light precipitation rather than heavy downpours without an additional shell layer.

No, the jacket is water-resistant thanks to its Pertex® Quantum outer with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, meaning it will shed light rain and snow. For heavy, prolonged downpours, we recommend wearing a fully waterproof shell over it.
It uses PrimaLoft® Silver RISE synthetic insulation. This high-lofting synthetic material is designed to provide excellent warmth even when wet, making it ideal for damp conditions where traditional down might fail.
The Cirrus Alpine Jacket is designed primarily for cold and bitter winter weather, but its versatility makes it suitable for cooler conditions year-round, such as high-altitude summer alpine climbing or chilly evenings. For active use in warmer temperatures, it may be too warm.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a technical cleaner specifically for synthetic insulation (e.g., Nikwax Tech Wash). Do not use fabric softener or bleach. Tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to restore loft.
This jacket is highly versatile and suitable for climbing, general use, hill walking, mountaineering, skiing, and trekking in cold and damp conditions.
The jacket has a 'Regular' fit, which allows for comfortable layering with baselayers and mid-layers underneath without feeling restrictive.
Yes, both the PrimaLoft® Silver RISE insulation and the Pertex® Quantum outer fabric are made from 100% recycled polyamide, along with a fluorocarbon-free DWR.
The average weight for a Medium size is 516g.
This often occurs after washing or prolonged compression. Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to break up clumps and restore the insulation's loft, improving warmth.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner designed for outdoor gear, then apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR re-proofing treatment. Heat activation (brief tumble dry on low) may be required for some DWR products.
Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth using a small brush. Apply a zipper lubricant or a small amount of beeswax to the zipper teeth. Operate the zipper a few times to distribute the lubricant evenly.
The Rab Cirrus Alpine Jacket requires no complex setup. Simply unpack it and it's ready to wear. For optimal loft, give it a gentle shake after unpacking.
Proper care will extend the life and maintain the performance of your jacket:
