WOMEN'S UPPER BODY SIZING

HOW TO MEASURE

• Arm length - Measure from the side of your neck to wrist fold, over the top of your arm.
• Chest – Measure around the fullest part of the chest with your arms down. Usually just under the pits.
• Waist - Measure around the narrowest part of the waist. Your waist is at the small of the back or where your body bends if you lean to the side.
• Hips - Measure around the widest part of your hip area.

 

IMPORTANT: These are body measurements, not the measurements of our garments.

While all of our 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 our 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

Our 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.

WOMEN'S LEGWEAR SIZING 

HOW TO MEASURE

• Waist - Measure around the narrowest part of the waist. Your waist is at the small of the back or where your body bends if you lean to the side.
• Hips - Measure around the widest part of your hip area.
• Leg Length – Measure from the crotch (top of inner thigh) to where you want the hem to sit on your foot or shoe.

 

 

Sleeping Bags

Getting a good night's sleep when it's cold out there is super important. Luckily, we're masters of insulation. By choosing a Rab® sleeping bag, you know you're going to have some sweet dreams, no matter if you're on an alpine bivi, or in the back of your camper. However, picking the right size is key.

In this guide, we look at the different fits and sizes of our bags. Outlining their benefits and ideal uses.

FIT

You don't want your bag too big, or too small. Either way, you'll lose heat. You also want to be comfortable.

Our bags come in three shapes:

• Mummy shaped - your comfy option. These are broader at the shoulders and get slightly narrower towards the foot box. Great for side sleepers or those who like to have a little wiggle-room. Used in: Ascent, Solar, Expedition, Andes
• Tapered Mummy shaped - the performance option. Tapered mummy bags are the 'slim fit' of sleeping bags. These are close at the shoulders and tighter at the feet to reduce any excess air. They are the most thermally efficient option, pack the smallest and weight the least. Used in: Neutrino, Neutrino Pro, Mythic, Mythic Ultra, Alpine Pro
• Extra Wide Mummy shape - spacious option. You guessed it. These are extra wide and have lots of room inside. Ideal for car camping or casual users. Used in: Morpheus

SIZE

Alongside the fit, comes the actual size of the bag. You want to choose a sleeping bag that's closest to your own measurements.

Each model has its own fit. And, the internal measurements of all the fill variations for that model are the same. For example, getting in an Ascent 900 feels the same as getting in an Ascent 300. The internal dimensions stay the same. We change the outer dimensions of the bag to accommodate for the extra down filling.

We have three basic sizes, Women's, Regular, and XL. Broadly speaking these are based on height, though the widths are also different.
