Designed for alpinists looking to do more but take less, the Kaon Jacket combines intelligent zoning and breathable inserts to offer warmth and protection without the weight penalty.
Designed to keep you protected when out and about, the Rab Kaon Jacket is the perfect addition to your outdoor adventures. Featuring a lightweight nylon ripstop, the jacket ensures protection on the toughest of trails. The ripstop fabrication reduces the risks of tearing and abrasion to give you peace of mind as you navigate outdoor environments.
