Just a solid, no frills

Just a solid, no frills piece of kit. Less krinkly than other goretex. Large fits well with an athletic almost tailored cut (I'm 5'11" 190 and dense).

Initially had some wetting out

Initially had some wetting out issues right out of the recyclable package, however after one wash with Nik wax tech wash and tumble drying I haven't noticed any issues since.

The jacket ripped at the first time I used it

It's mind-boggling that this jacket ripped the first time I used it, and that the same didn't happen to any of my other gear! In the introduction it states that it provides protection for the user, so obviously if the jacket can be easily broken, how can it provide protection? If you wish to use this garment in an outdoor scenario and expect it to protect you, please do think twice before purchasing: I nearly had hypothermia from being soaked and nearly died because of a tear in this jacket!

Cheap - sizing is totally

Cheap - sizing is totally wrong. Ordered a medium. Sleeves were way too long. Jacket was way too long. Then you pay to return it - not happy

Disappointed and Wide Fit

Usually a huge fan of Rab and subsequently own a lot of their gear, however on my last outing around the Carneddau Mountain Range in North Wales, I got pretty wet wearing this jacket partnered with the Rab Zenith GTX trousers. It was strong winds and 'quite' heavy rain, but for the price I would have expected better of both (first time testing in the rain on their third outing). Reading the other reviews, I'm not sure whether there is an issue with mine or if I just need to invest in a more high end GTX jacket and save this one for lowlands/summer walks. It does have great adjustment around the hood, however I find it quite wide around the mid section. There's no chest pockets internal or external which I do miss, but that's obviously clear before you buy. Thinking maybe the Zanskar would have been better if I had a bigger budget.

Quality jacket that works well in all weathers

It’s the 4th Rab waterproof I own . All in different colours . I like the the colour of my Namche Graphene . Plus I’ve been to Namche in the Himalayas. I’ve been out in it I. Some horrendous rain and I was dry as in side . Well my friends all commented when we took our jackets off how dry I was . I’m going to use the wash service when it needs it from Rab . Just true love to rab for another cracking jacket .

Good but missing some things

Quality waterproof breathable jacket. Mine is xl which is good fit not tight so easliy able to wear fleece. No inside pocket and no mesh inner which is a shame.
