Rab Women's Arc Eco Waterproof Jacket

The Arc Eco jacket represents a pioneering step as the brand's first garment to feature 3-layer Pertex® Shield Revolve. This innovative fabric is both waterproof and breathable, and it is crafted entirely from post-consumer recycled polyester.

With its face fabric, membrane, and backer all constructed from a single type of polymer, the jacket is far easier to recycle at the end of its lifespan compared to those made from multiple polymer blends. Enhanced with a fluorocarbon-free DWR coating, the Arc Eco delivers reliable waterproof protection. It is equipped with an adjustable mountain hood featuring a laminated peak, and includes a soft fleece-lined chin guard for added comfort. Other thoughtful design elements include a drawcord-adjustable hem, anti-snag hook-and-loop cuff fastenings, and YKK® AquaGuard® zips throughout. Two generously sized A-line chest pockets offer quick access and ample storage for essentials like gloves or a map.

Designed for a variety of outdoor pursuits and mountain missions, this hardwearing jacket offers a more environmentally conscious option, thanks to its recycled, performance-driven fabric.

Technology

Pertex® Shield Revolve

This lightweight, waterproof fabric offers excellent breathability and is crafted entirely from recycled materials. Thanks to its monopolymer structure, it can be far more easily recycled at the end of its life compared to conventional fabrics that combine various polymer layers.

End of life in mind

Built with recycled monopolymer fabrics, this gear is also easier to recycle at the end of its life than fabric made from multiple polymer layers.
