Details & care
When were heading into cold, high-alpine terrain with real winter conditions in play, we need gear that doesnt flinch. The Optical Down Jacket is built to thrive in those moments, offering serious warmth and waterproof protection with the mobility and breathability required for backcountry touring, ski missions, or deep resort days. Rabs trusted Pertex® Shield 2-layer fabric keeps weather out while staying breathable, and the combination of 700-fill-power hydrophobic recycled down and TXdown® Gold sheet insulation keeps warmth locked in without adding bulk or limiting movement. Whether bootpacking to a remote line or navigating an open bowl in brutal cold, this jacket handles the demands of deep winter with purpose-built precision. A ski-helmet-compatible hood, articulated sleeves, removable Matrix stretch powder skirt, and strategically placed YKK® AquaGuard® zippers make it clearthis piece is designed to perform. RECCO® technology is built in for added peace of mind, and sustainability notes like reclaimed down and fluorocarbon-free DWR round out the jackets forward-thinking design.
