Rab Ascendor Summit Hoodie - Women's Steel, L

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I wear this when I'm climbing in mixed, windy conditions. The mapped panels make a huge difference-wind protection where I need it and breathable fleece everywhere else. The hood fits cleanly under a helmet, and the thumb loops help keep the sleeves locked in when I'm reaching high."We pull on the Ascendor Summit Hoodie when winter routes demand warmth, breathability, and protection in equal measure. Its body-mapped design places wind-resistant Pertex(R) Quantum Air across the upper torso, shoulders, and arms while gridded Thermic(TM) G fleece adds soft, fast-wicking comfort everywhere else. This blend keeps us warm on exposed belays without overheating as we move toward the next pitch. When we're climbing in biting wind or spindrift, the under-helmet hood seals in warmth with a smooth, close fit. PrimaLoft(R) Evolve Active insulation adds lightweight loft across key zones, helping us stay comfortable through long transitions and cold starts. Low-profile seams, raised pockets, and elastic binding all work cleanly beneath packs and harnesses. From steep winter scrambles to technical mixed terrain, the Ascendor Summit Hoodie gives us dependable warmth that adapts to the rhythm of the climb.
