i would like to ask the comparison between cirrus ultra and mythic alpine light, thank u

Great review. But, in your honest opinion, what's the durability of this jacket - I mean will the outer fabric "survive" many hours carrying heavier backpack - straps?

How do you loosen the hood? I’ve just purchased one and struggling to loosen it with the foam cords

Hello what’s the name of the green one?

thanks for the video. Would u recommend it as a winter jacket? In europe its like minus 0-10 degress. Or do you have any other recommendation?

considering I was delivered a defective Rab Ascent down jacket with a broken defective zip, Rab deserves not to be in business with their very poor quality control china made down jackets 😡 .

Thanks for the informative video, do you know why Montane dont include a raincover please ?

why does patagonia clothing look like prescooler clothes

A really huge thanks for this. I’ve got two bags from the 90’s. A ladakh 650 and an atlas 1000. Both of which I’ve washed and looked after myself but this makes me want to get them sorted by RAB. I’ll leave it until the end of the winter but def get them done . The 650 has been all over with me from EBC 3 times. Annapurna once as well as Borneo, Africa and Cambodia. Yeh I know a bit overkill for the last ones but I like my warmth lol. Thanks again

Rab did an impressive job fixing that jacket. Almost looks completely new. Great job Rab 👍🏻👍🏻🇳🇴

I've have a total of 26 Mountain Equipment lightline jacckets including 4 of the Eco versions all in XXL 🤣🤣🤣 . Also just ordered a Rab Ascent to try out 🤣🤣🤣 . Personally I'm only really interested in the heavyweight down jackets , Which only really start with the two versions of Mountain Equipment lightline jacket including the Eco version , and with Rab with the Ascent 🤣🤣🤣 . Next heavier heavyweight down jackets are the Mountain Equipment K7 , followed by the even heavier Mountain Equipment Annapurna 😁 . I also wear my technical duvet jackets in bed in the cold winter spells 🤣🤣🤣 .

Loved the video, but what's the rucksack in the background? Tia

I've had two jackets repaired by Rab (rips caused by me!), and I found the repair service very easy to use, cost effective and quick. I was so impressed by the service I now by Rab gear as my default choice. I like their ethos of repairing rather than replacing.

Would you suggest it over Microlight Infinity for practical use? I love the Firecracker colour of the microlight Infinity a lot but practicality wise & price wise this Cirus Ultra makes more sense. Please guide & advise 🙏

do you think mythic alpine would be enough with some polartec 120g in -5c in campsite ?

Very helpful video ! Thank you for sharing. Can I ask you what a belay jacket is for ?

Really helpful video ! Thank you for sharing !

Is there a link for the pump layer video mention in the clip?

I consider the Sunnto races or the Amazfit t rex 3. How is the weightlifting training in Suunto races. Is it detailed or only show time, heart rate and calories ?

Best quality and excellent value for money....

Thanks :) Great review!

Maybe you should of done this video on a brighter day it’s practically dark out

I've been using montane trousers last cpl years and the fit on the waist annoys me I've started wearing rab and the fit is so much better. I'm looking for a colder weather trousers and can't decide between the lochan or the ascendor AS I'm a hiker and wild camper which would suit me better.

Hi, I enjoyed the video. My friend has very long big toes and they get very sore on long walks, what type of boot would be best?

It’s mental that it’s unusual to have footwear that’s actually more human foot shaped. Good to see footwear manufacturers waking up to the fact, but most lasts are still too tapered. I suffered for years in all footwear but mainly walking boots. Tailors Bunions and Morton’s neuroma due to footwear that’s based around a tapered toe box, if you choose a ‘wide’ fit the entire boot often ends up higher in volume and unnecessary if you just need space for your foot to splay in the toe box. I ended up with a pair of Vivobarefoot boots(foot shaped, flexible, zero heal-to-toe drop) and eventually switched all my footwear to minimalist options after building up the lower leg and foot strength. Literally life changing, foot problems have completely resolved, along with fixing some back and hip issues, likely due to my pelvis now sitting neutral. Really hope we see more manufacturers making foot shaped footwear, but they don’t look as aesthetically pleasing on the shop display, so I imagine they’ll just keep pumping out what sells. My goodness, I think I’ve gotten onto a rant here. Take care 😆

I wonder what the functional difference is between the cirrus ultra and rab nebula pro, weight seems to be similar.

Good review, mate! Any issues with the short zippers coming off the slide when opening the footbox as reported from some customers on the pro version? The black outer fabric on head and foot area should also be waterproof.

Hello. Do you consider it advisable to buy a larger size than usual for a good fit? Thanks for response.

I brought the microlight 2 weeks ago , I would say 2 things , to give you some idea of how warm the microlight is , I wore a t-shirt underneath in 8 decrees celcius just to test the warmth and after 10 minutes I could feel the cold getting through, If you are want something for a layering this would be great ,if you want a winter coat for the uk as just an outer shell get the Electron the microloght is thin,also hey are bigger than they used to be , the XL is a large Xl.They used to be a nice snug fit.I am 6ft 1 15 stone and the XL is too big and the Large is too tight and short , another reason why im swapping it for the electron.

I'm pretty interested in the Race S. I have a Garmin Forerunner 165 and the main thing I'm worried about missing is Garmin's Daily Suggested Workouts. You mentioned Suunto will create structured workouts based on the data is has collected. If I want a training plan, will it automatically update the structured workout based on my progress, or will I have to make a new structured workout later to get another workout based on my progress? Thanks! Great video.

I am looking at these 3 jackets , I need something for everyday wear, walking the dog , very light hiking . I would like to have something warm and something that cuts the wind , for winter temps like -5 to -15c. I don't mind layering with a fleece and I do have a shell if it snows a lot, Super confusing Let me know your thoughts Choices Mens Rab Electron Pro - seems to have best insulation and 800 down fill Mens Rab Infinity Microlight - maybe not the warmest but has the wind resistant finish Mens Rab Glaceon down - seems to have good insulation but only 700 down fill

Love to know the comparison to the englightend equipment torrid

The 2020 verison of he DAS light was 320grams and the new verison is extra 20grams so 340grams, but you get an inside drop pocket and waist adjustment for 2024. Been cool if you could have put the Arc'teryx Men's Nuclei Hoody in there too. Guess longer video.

Hi , I like the Nebula or Infinity alpine . My main goal is to have one jacket used as an outer Layer. I realize they are different jackets. My objective is to have a warm jacket that is windproof / resistance as sometimes the wind makes it 100 percent worse. I have a shell if it snows, if it goes super cold I could wear a fleece underneath but based on our last couple of winters there relatively mild and we may get 2-3 weeks of -20. I don't mind looking at different jackets, I looked at the thorium but it's super expensive vs both of them and it seems like the nebula might be slightly warmer. Not sure what you think of arcteryx atom heavyweight seems as though it won't be a warm enough or the patagonia down hoody Again., my goal is one jacket for the winter, walking the dog a couple of hours a day, running errands. No big physical activity Any thoughts or suggestions

No, your text is not perfect 😜😜

When comparing the insulation of the DAS light vs the Cirrus Ultra there seems to be a mistake when commenting on the amount of fill. The DAS light mentions it has 65 g/sqm of pluma fill vs the cirrus having 247g of thermoplume total. Considering a jacket uses about 2sqm of fabric the DAS light probably has somwhere close to 130g of plumafill.

Do you mind sharing your height and weight and the size for the Cirrus Alpine Jacket that you were trying on? Thanks!

How do these compare to Hanwag or Crispi?

Which one would be best over a base layer in cooler fall/winter weather?

Really good video explaining the different offerings but I cannot understand why, for such a costly premium brand of hiking trousers, there is no mesh on the vents to prevent the possibility of tics or other bugs getting into your legs should you open the vents. Might not be such an issue in winter, but otherwise... I understand that the mesh might reduce the airflow somewhat, but personally I would rather have slightly warmer legs which have not been bitten by bugs/tics.

Is the cirus ultra really quantum pro. Have looked on rab website and couldn’t find any mention of pro. I am hoping you are right and an oversight on their website.

I have the older version of the trailblazer 18, with the vertical zipped pocket at the front. I like the design of the newer 18, with the stretchy mesh pocket in the front. If they could somehow add water bottle pockets on either side of the 18 when they make a newer version, then that would be perfect, although maybe it’s just me that is looking for that feature

Very good review. Really appreciate all the details. You’re very thorough. Of the three jackets, I only have the Oreus. But I also think the jacket fits a bit more snug than other jackets (from Mountain Equipment). It is nice and warm, but it’s a little bit shorter in the body than other ME insulation jackets I have. If I was belaying in really cold weather, I’d probably go for the Fitzroy or the Citadel. However, if I wanted a jacket to do it all, (outer layer, mid layer, and a puffy for breaks) I’d probably go for the Oreus. If it was really really cold, I’d do as Tom Livingstone, and use the Oreus under a down parka. See the theme here? I don’t like to freeze 😁 ATB from Norway 🇳🇴

Another brilliantly written and executed film man! Bravo 👏 Your content is stunning!

Great to see a comparison. Interesting that you’ve weighed the DAS light and it’s come out lighter than the manufacturer’s figure (346g), normally it is the other way round!

Love this tent and the fact you can use the trekking poles to make it bomb proof .Got the Radon UL1 same weight as my snugpak ionisphere , and has twice as much space and a ton of storage pockets well happy 😊

I have the Cirrus Flex from last year and my only gripe is the lack of zipped security pocket, according to all websites it says the newer version has a ykk zipped internal chest pocket, but in your video you explain there isn’t one unlike the cirrus Alpine. Can you confirm this?

Great vid, I love a comparison between products. Cheers

Nice interview 😁👍🏼

Which is the warmer jacket; this or the axion pro? Any other differences? Thanks
