I've had this for about 5 years now, and its really been abused. it's survived 2 trips to nepal, and camping at -25 degrees. never felt cold wearing it, and warms you up quickly. Its also survived dog shows and winter walks, being crammed into a rucksac, and anything I can throw at it. I needed to go up a size, same as I do for all rab products, but the fit is good. Its been a good friend, and still going strong.
Great Jacket, 17 July 2010
By Lewis (Sheffield)
I bought this jacket to serve me in Norway for 6 months, through the winter. It did its job.
Extreme insulation, extreme lightweight. It packs down very well, perfect for carrying in the rucksack. Insulated hood came in very handy at times!
Not waterproof though, the only disadvantage to it, i'd say. Then again, it isn't meant to be fully waterproof.
Great jacket for all it's purposes.

I bought this jacket for the purpose of keeping warm, it's almost instant heat once you put it on and i've never been cold in it. I would say the smaller feather coming out of the seams are am annoying. Jacket packs away into very small stuff bag (supplied). I cant help feeling if buying this jacket again i'd buy the Summit Extreme thats fully waterproof and does not loose its fill.
Rab Summit Jacket. Mens, 26 January 2010

This jacket has got to be the warmest top layer i've ever worn. And having the pertex coating it gives you just that added security of knowing that if you are caught out in a shower you wont ruin it. The length is ideal, covers your bum. The inside mesh pockets are a very useful size for maps, wallets etc. Its got a neck tensioner at rear of collar, looks a bit odd, but works well. Having natural down filling makes it extremely comfortable. You just have to get used to little feathers popping out of the seams now and again. I love this coat. .plattypus
