Rab Women's Khroma Kinetic Waterproof Ski Jacket

Rab's Khroma Kinetic is lightweight, stretchy and highly breathable, offering the protection of a hardshell with the comfort of a softshell. Built with Rab's own Proflex™ fabric, the jacket responds effectively to moisture, pulling it through the system more efficiently than a traditional hardshell. On spring missions or fast-moving climbs, heat can be dumped quickly with the rear arm zips, or a through draft created by opening the mesh-lined front pockets. When temperatures peak, the jacket packs down small enough to be stashed in a pack without taking up much space.

Built-in stretch and sleeve articulation give freedom to move easily on technical terrain, and deep front pockets easily swallow skins or a map. When the wind picks up or the blizzards roll in, the protective adjustable hood can be worn over a helmet, with a stiff peak and easy head turn ensuring visibility isn't hindered.

For one system that does it all, from remote ski touring and hut-to-hut adventures to ascending and stomping the steepest, most technical lines, this is it.

Technology

Proflex™

Proflex™ is Rab's own stretch fabric technology, combining the protection of a hardshell with the flexibility and comfort of a softshell. This 20D stretch-woven nylon three-layer waterproof construction is highly breathable and finished with a fluorocarbon-free DWR (149 g/m²), delivering a hydrostatic head of 20,000 mm and a moisture vapour transmission rate of 25,000 g/m²/24 hrs.

Rab's fluorocarbon-free fabrics are completely free of fluorocarbons (PFAS), whether in the face fabric, membrane, or backer. PFAS-free means all intentionally added PFAS have been phased out, compliant with current EU and US legislation.
