The Rab story began in 1981 in the attic of a small, terraced house in Sheffield where Rab Carrington made the first sleeping bag to bear his name. Demand, from his close-knit climbing community, quickly outgrew what he could put together and he moved to a factory in Sheffield where his reputation for building fuss-free, hard-wearing kit escalated into the brand we know, love and can rely on today.
