Windveil Jacket - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"This thing lives in the bottom of my trail pack. The Windveil is featherlight, stops gusts cold on ridgelines, and stuffs into its own chest pocket. Perfect for high-output alpine days when you need emergency protection without the weight."

When the wind howls across exposed alpine ridgelines and every ounce in our kit counts, the Windveil Jacket steps up as our go-to defense. Rab crafted this ultralight shell to breathe through effort while blocking the brunt of summit gusts, making it ideal for mountain running, fast hikes, or any high-aerobic effort in unpredictable conditions. The Pertex® Quantum Air fabric balances wind resistance and breathability, keeping us comfortable on both the ascent and descent.

Smart details elevate its performance: extended cuffs slip easily over GPS watches, a high collar blocks chill, and the zippered chest pocket doubles as a built-in stuff sack. With a slim fit that minimizes flapping and elastic paneling that holds tight against the torso, this jacket won't slow you down when you're chasing summits or dodging weather. We stash it in our vest or pack and barely notice it—until we need it most.
