Why We Like The Rab Xenair Vest

The Rab Xenair Vest is an essential layer for high-out alpine adventures, offering ultralight, breathable, and packable insulation. Designed with wind-resistant Pertex Quantum Air material that shields us from fierce winds on exposed climbs and a highly breathable lining that keeps us cool the harder we work. The body-mapped insulation provides warmth and comfort in chilly weather, plus it isn't too bulky, so we can layer over it in chilly weather. The semi-elasticated armholes ensure comfort during intense activities, while the three zippered pockets provide practical storage.

Great product, but a bit baggy

Familiarity:: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
Size Bought:: Small

This is a great product, but I agree with other reviews about generous fit in the waist area. Similar vest from a brand named after mountain range starting with P in size small was slightly tight for me, while this one is very generous and I can fit it over thick baselayer/thin midlayer. Also, hidden zipper on chest pocket on Nanoair looks better. Overall, I'm keeping this vest as I got it at good price, but YMMV.

Excellent addition to the wardrobe.

Excellent addition to the wardrobe. Equally useful on a cool autumn morning outdoors and for casual use

Made for men with kites

Quality, looked great top half up. I sized down and it fits well round the chest but is really baggy around the belly, I worry this is the way outfitters are trending accommodating the less athletic dog walkers over trimmer outdoor enthusiasts.

A very good quality product

A very good quality product that technically works as described. However, it is probably a little overpriced for what it is does. It also fits quite big, even the small is generous. I would assume this is so you can fit a base layer underneath, but for the price I would hope for a better fit.
