Rab says: 

Lightweight, packable insulated vest with fleece side panels for breathability and superb mobility. Now with larger baffles and warm, high-loft synthetic insulation, it’s ideal as an outer in the warmer months or for layering in cold conditions.

Our Verdict

The Rab Cirrus Flex Insulated Vest is a superb layering option for those who need warmth without bulk. Weighing just 278 grams in a medium size, it offers an excellent blend of insulation and breathability, thanks to the high-loft PrimaLoft Silver RISE insulation and Thermic stretch fleece side panels. This vest is perfect for active use in warmer weather and as a core-warming layer under a shell in colder conditions.

On the trail, the vest maintains warmth while allowing for full mobility. The recycled Pertex Quantum outer fabric is lightweight and durable, efficiently handling the rigours of the outdoors. The slim fit makes it easy to layer, and the elasticated armholes ensure a snug, comfortable fit that keeps the warmth in without restricting movement.

Practical features like the integrated storage pocket and YKK zips make the Cirrus Flex Insulated Vest a versatile piece of kit that packs down small and is ready to be deployed whenever needed.
