When unpredictable weather demands serious protection, the Women’s Firewall Guide Waterproof Jacket from Rab is the ideal jacket to reach for, built keep you dry whatever the conditions. Its rugged 40D Pertex® Shield 3-layer construction delivers 20K waterproof protection and provides day-in day-out durability whilst remaining highly breathable, keeping you cool and comfortable when the rain arrives.
