Rab Men's Kinetic Plus Waterproof, Breathable Stretch Softshell Jacket

A breakthrough in protection and flexibility, the Rab Men's Kinetic Plus Waterproof Softshell Jacket combines the comfort of a softshell with the protection of a traditional hardshell. With Rab's own Proflex™ fabric, your outer protective shell clothing can have unimpeded mobility as well as incredible comfort and softness.
Designed for day-long use in challenging, changeable weather conditions, the Rab Kinetic Plus Jacket features a high performance, flexible membrane with a waterproof measure of 10,000mm and an exceptional breathability level in excess of 35,000cc/sqm/24hrs. The twin A-line pockets and main zip utilise taped YKK® AquaGuard® zips, to prevent any water leaking in. A close-fitting stretch-on hood with laminated and stiffened peak provides extra facial protection, while the hem and cuffs are stitch-free for added comfort.

Rab Men's Upper Body Measurement Chart

While all Rab garments are sized to these measurements, you will find that the cut on jackets designed for use in more extreme environments will be slightly more generous in the expectation that these designs will be used with additional/thicker mid-layers. If you plan on using a jacket like this with fewer layers beneath it, please keep this in mind when selecting your size.

Regular Fit for Garments 

Designed to be versatile Regular Fit garments are not closely fitted making them ideal for cross-seasonal use and multi-layering. Regular fit garments are contoured, with room for movement.

Slim Fit for Garments

Slim Fit garments are designed to be worn closer to the body or over layers such as baselayers and light mid-layers. Slim fit garments are close fitting for maximum performance when moving dynamically.

Expedition Fit for Garments

Expedition garments are designed to be worn in colder conditions over more layers of clothing than our other fits and are oversized slightly to allow for this.

Rab Kinetic Plus Jacket, Top Pick Award, Outdoor Gear Lab

"When you first try on the Rab Kinetic Plus, you may find it feels more like a softshell jacket than a traditional hardshell, thanks to its super stretchy material. It also sports a stretch-woven feeling exterior as well as a soft brushed interior. Don't let the softshell feel fool you; it is every bit a hardshell and is at home on soggy backpacking trips or stormy days of ski touring. With the Kinetic Plus, it's not just about its stretchiness; this athletically fitting jacket is incredibly breathable, sports an excellent hood design, and is astonishingly versatile."
