The Electron Pro Vest is great as a warmth-boosting outer layer in cool and dry conditions or as a mid-layer when it's bitterly cold. This vest is engineered for alpinists but it still has plenty of benefits for use in the Scottish mountains or on low-level adventures. 800 fill power down is very lightweight and compresses incredibly small, while still being very warm. The Pertex Quantum Pro fabric is even more water resistant than standard Quantum, meaning the down it protects will stay dryer for longer.

The Rab Men's Electron Pro Vest - Black has the following sustainability attributes...
Carbon Neutral or Climate Neutral brands have been third party verified as reducing their carbon footprint, often balancing their remaining emissions with carbon credits to support projects that are combating the climate emergency.
Sometimes using animal products can be a more sustainable alternative than using non-biodegradable plastic, but it is imperative that an animal’s welfare is respected. The Responsible Down Standard (RDS) was started by The North Face, Textile Exchange, Allied Feather Down and Control Union. RDS down cannot come from farms that engage in force feeding or live plucking and they must respect the Five Freedoms of animal welfare: freedom from hunger and thirst; from discomfort; from pain, injury or disease; to express normal behaviour; and from fear and distress. Parent farm (the farm where the birds are kept for producing eggs) certification is optional unless the down is harvested there. RDS down is traceable back to source via Track My Down.
