RAB - BUILT ON REPUTATION & PERFORMANCE

RAB outerwear is designed by climbers, mountain athletes, and outdoor professionals who understand exactly what it takes to withstand the harsh, ever-changing conditions thrown at them by Mother Nature. This real-world alpine experience is the foundation of the brand, shaping gear that performs far beyond the resort boundaries.


RAB’s reputation has been built on several critical performance elements, each engineered to provide athletes and skiers with uncompromising protection, comfort, and reliability in extreme environments.

TECHNICAL PRECISION & DURABILITY

RAB blends high quality fabrics and features to ensure temperature regulation and longevity in every piece.

RAB integrates industry-leading fabric technologies that skiers and mountaineers trust in the most demanding weather. Advanced materials such as GORE-TEX®, Pertex® Shield, and Proflex™ fabrics deliver exceptional waterproof ratings, complete windproof protection, and highly efficient breathability. This technical precision ensures moisture is kept out while allowing internal heat and perspiration to escape — keeping you dry, regulated, and comfortable through long days on the mountain.

 

Those long days on mountain can be tough on your gear. From sharp ski edges to abrasive chairlifts and rugged backcountry terrain, outerwear must endure constant wear. RAB pieces are built to go the distance, featuring reinforced panels, abrasion-resistant face fabrics, and premium construction quality. Every seam, zip, and high-wear zone is engineered to resist damage, ensuring your investment holds strong season after season.

FIT & LAYERING SYSTEM

The RAB clothing line is built as an integrated layering system designed to keep you warm, dry, and mobile. From moisture-wicking base layers to insulating midlayers and fully weatherproof outer shells, each piece works in harmony.

Articulated patterning allows for unrestricted movement, while mountain-ready features — including helmet-compatible hoods, weatherproof zippers, and fully sealed seams — enhance on-snow functionality without sacrificing comfort.
