Rab’s Cirrus Ultra Hoody: Setting new standards in synthetic insulation performance

September 24, 2024

New in AW24, the award-winning jacket features PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume®+ insulation for unparalleled warmth and comfort

September  24, 2024 /OUTDOOR SPORTSWIRE/ – British outdoor brand Rab (owned by Equip Outdoor Technologies Ltd.) has launched the award-winning Cirrus Ultra Hoody. This pinnacle synthetic insulation jacket is designed for ambitious activities in extreme winter conditions. Filled with PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume®+ synthetic insulation, the Cirrus Ultra Hoody offers exceptional warmth and comfort in a compact package, making it ideal for winter mountaineering, ski touring, and ice climbing.

Over four decades, Rab has honed their reputation as Masters of Insulation. The Cirrus Ultra Hoody pushes the boundaries of technical performance gear once again. As Rab’s lightest and warmest loose-fill synthetic jacket to date, it closely mimics down’s lofting properties while effectively managing damp, cold weather. Equipped with Rab’s heat-reflective TILT technology and body-mapped insulation, it provides instant warmth and comfort in any environment.

PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume®+ is made from 100% post-consumer recycled material and has a patented structure that utilizes fiber balls and plumes to create an insulation that’s soft, feather-like, and imitates the feel of down. The synthetic fiber balls work in tandem with the plumes to form a unified structure that creates a scaffolding effect, delivering a resilient loft that resists clumping, even after washing.

The Cirrus Ultra Hoody’s feature set comprises:

• Body mapped PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume®+ insulation made from 100% post-consumer recycled material.
• TILT lining technology for optimal warmth and performance.
• Water-resistant recycled Pertex® Quantum Pro fabric with fluorocarbon-free DWR helps deflect the elements.
• Helmet compatible hood with rear elastication, concealed internal face adjustment and stiffened peak for increased protection.
• 2-way lightweight YKK® VISLON® center front zip with insulated zip baffle and fleece lined chin guard.
• 2 YKK® zipped hand pockets, 2 YKK® zipped insulated chest pockets.
• Integrated storage pocket with harness attachment loop.
• Internal elasticated cuffs for optimum fit with or without gloves.
• Dual sided rear hem adjustment with anti-snag tether.
• Weight: 548g (size M) / 494g (size 10).
