Inside Look: Rab Nebula Pro Jacket

You'd be forgiven for thinking the Nebula looks like a down jacket. It looks, feels and performs extremely similarly, however, the main difference is the Nebula features a fully synthetic insulation, making it a brilliant jacket for our typically wet and cold UK mountain conditions.

[@dg4846]

Thanks for review. Today I tried this jacket on and I found really well designed to my body shape. Not too tight under armpit, good sleeve length. I just felt a hood little too big but fully adjustable so it is no a huge issue. Possibly I will buy it soon. Just curious how compressible this jacket is. Of course it can not be as good as down jacket.

[@trekitt]

Hi, you're right that the Nebula wont pack down as small as a comparable down jacket, but its pros outweigh those cons! I suspect that you could get it packed into a Medium Exped Fold Drysack - www.trekitt.co.uk/equipment/storage/exped-fold-drybag-bs-m__35357

Ahhh. I might use this to double as an everyday winter coat, belay for hikes/camping.

[@trekitt]

Good plan!

[@alessamc]

loove your videos. I'm between Nebula Pro and ME Superflux. I'm thinking about which will be warmer and more comfortable for every day but going hiking as well. I live in Pirinees so the weather is quite cold. Thanks a lot for your reviews

[@trekitt]

Both are great choices. Ben has a slight preference for the Superflux, whereas Paul is a fan of the Nebula Pro. The Nebula has a slightly more relaxed fit, but otherwise they're very similar jackets, means you can pick based on style preferences too. Unofficial Rule #1 - Look Good!

[@unboundk9]

I'm currently looking into the Nebula and the Neutrino Jacket by Rab. I like that the Nebula is synthetic (for ethical reasons) but i don't know if it is just "enough" for what i need. I mostly would use as a hiking jacket in the alps. I dont do anything too extreme though, so i'm not sure with which of them to get with...

[@trekitt]

The Neutrino is quite a bit warmer but doesn't cope with damp conditions as well, so I guess it depends how warm you need to be and whether the insulation's wet weather performance matters to you. I'd probably lean more towards the Nebula for active use. Harry

[@carlb401]

A great video yet again. I am considering one of these, but i was wondering about how they are washed? Do they get washed as per normal sheet type insulated jackets, or do they need to be washed / dried in the same way as down? TIA

[@trekitt]

The Nebula Pro can be washed as you would wash any synthetic jacket. Please use a proper “detergent” such as Nikwax Tech Wash. if you need to replenish the DWR a spray on is best, such as Nikwax TX Direct. Wash on a gentle cycle no hotter then 40 degrees Celsius. The jacket can then be air dried. Thanks for watching. Paul.

Great video. I already have a down midlayer, but I’m looking for something more substantial for when I’m traveling in the midwest. If you had to estimate, how low could the temperature be without getting chills- assuming you’ve layered a base layer and fleece underneath? I have an average cold comfort level.

[@MaximumBGGT]

This jacket seems to have great value for the price since it’s synthetic.

[@trekitt]

That's such a hard question to answer as there are far too many variables that affect you "warm" you may feel. Check out our video on the subject here kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqfYnKl5r9B6jZI

[@stephencooper2507]

Great review as always Sir & I need some help, What jacket would recommend that's really warm & keeps you dry if it rains in the UK & for a late night winter walk with the dog or walk home from the pub without load of layers underneath, This looks good or I was maybe going to go for the mountain equipment lightline down jacket????

[@sfoeric]

As long as it is a light rain (not the kind that drench you to the bone), I think the Lightline from ME would be a good choice. I am sure Paul will reply, but I think you can’t go wrong that choice. Just keep in mind that down is best when you will be in drier conditions because moisture can cause the down to deloft.

[@trekitt]

Hi Stephen. The Nebula Pro would work well for your intended use, but bear in mind that if it is raining heavily, some water may seep in through the seams, as the jacket is not 100% waterproof. You may want to consider the Rab Valiance www.trekitt.co.uk/33918/products/rab-mens-valiance-jacket-black.aspx as it is both warm and waterpoof.

Great review.i'd like to ask you,what is the maximum altitude with this jacket, you think, you can be comfortable with?

[@trekitt]

That's an incredibly difficult question to answer as there are so many variables to consider. Manufacturers do not give a "maximum altitude" as it depends on what you are doing, where you are doing it, when you are doing it, what the conditions are like, and your own physiology.

Another great video! How does this compare to the mountain equipment lightline?

[@trekitt]

Hi Ritchie. I'm assuming that want to know how the Nebula Pro compares in warmth to the Lightline? I'd say that they were pretty similar, but the big difference is in wet weather performance. The Nebula has synthetic fill and will perform better in damp/wet conditions. Paul.

[@clivenewton7609]

Hi Paul thanks for all the hard work involved in bringing us yet another great video. My question, if I may, is this. Is this a mark 2 jacket? I’ve had mine for a little over a year but it doesn’t look like the one you’re reviewing! Checking the internal tag it says Nebula Pro Jacket follow by the No. Q10-25. On the outside by the left hand pocket it reads Cirrus and by the right hand pocket it reads Pertex Quantumpro. In looks it looks like Microlite Alpine and doesn’t have the ‘Chevron’ tubes like the one you are wearing! Any ideas what’s going on??! Kind regards from Clive in deepest Dorset.

[@trekitt]

Hey Clive, you've got the previous version. The one in this video is a little slimmer, has some different baffle designs and uses the new Cirrus HL (high loft) insulation. Kind regards, Harry.

[@tubefreakmuva]

Yeah I think this is what im looking for. A Welsh, Scottish wet weather mid layer for the winter. Has a stuff sack and is stylish. Either this ir the anti freeze jacket from Montane. Im really stuck with a good decision on this. Any other suggestions? We were doing the 3 peaks and the first mountain was 50 mph gusts and driving rain. It was very cold and the wet got everywhere. Thankgod werent in the real winter and it wasnt higher mountains in Scotland. So need a good really warm mid layer that resists wet very well, and can be thrown in the backpack.

[@tubefreakmuva]

I think the haglofs mimic platinum is the best one after some watching of your vids, which I enjoy by the way. I already have one of their jackets and they are superb, no exaggeration!

[@trekitt]

The Anti-Freeze won't be suitable if you're going to be out in horrendously wet conditions. It's best in dry, cold conditions with little moisture ideally. The Mountain Equipment Superflux would be a good option to consider. I'll pop a link below. Harry www.trekitt.co.uk/clothing/jackets/mountain-equipment-mens-superflux-jacket-medieval-blue__42860

[@antonwong6460]

I've had a look at the pack sizes of this jacket and it is indeed a little bulky, is there another synthetic insulated jacket that is comparable in warmth that packs a little smaller that you can recommend?

[@trekitt]

Hi Anton. All synthetic jackets of similar warmth will have similar pack sizes due to the physical amount of insulation. The differences are going to be marginal at best, so if pack size and low weight are your priority I suggest you look at a down insulated jacket. If wet weather performance is you priority have a look at the Arcteryx Atom AR - www.trekitt.co.uk/facetresults.aspx?Term=Atom%20ar

[@bertman4]

I think this would work well for the Pacific Northwest of the US. How does Cirrus HL compare to PrimaLoft Gold that Patagonia uses? Thanks!

[@trekitt]

HI, I think it would work well too! Cirrus HL is a blown insulation that mimics natural down clusters, while Primaloft Gold is a sheet insulation. Blown insulation lofts better and warms up quicker, packs down smaller and is more breathable. Sheet insulation resists compression better, is more weather resistant and more stable. It really is a case of "horses-for-courses" depending on your needs and the environment the jacket will be used in. I hope that helps. Paul.

[@YiZongOng]

@@trekitt did the last season version of the Nebula use sheet insulation?

[@lawcha91]

How does this compare to the Atom AR? Thinking about getting one of these. The Nebula is considerably less expensive (I can get it for $185USD right now), but I think Arcteryx will have a 25% off Black Friday sale which will drop the Atom AR down to $225. Just looking for a highly insulated synthetic jacket that is comfortable/easy to wear and maintain without going to full winter jacket mode.

[@trekitt]

The main difference is the Atom uses sheet insulation whereas the Nebula uses blown. We've got a good video explaining the differences here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3Obo5eXo7eeoLM

[@ClaireLYoung]

For UK winter hillwalking, what jacket would you recommend having in your rucksack to sling on over the top of everything else for rest stops or forced stops due to injury - something like this, the Montane Fluxmatic or something else?

[@trekitt]

Hi Claire, you said it yourself, the Rab Nebula Pro works really well as a "belay jacket". Alternatives would be jackets such as M.E Citadel, Marmot WarmCube Featherless, Arcteryx Atom AR etc. As a guide, look for insulation fill weight of around 200g/sqm. I hope that helps. Paul.

Hi Paul! Is this jacket warmer than the Thorium AR? Looking for a jacket that’s even warmer than my Arc’teryx one, to walk my dogs in frigid cold. Thank you :)

[@trekitt]

It's fairly similar; the biggest difference is the Nebula uses a synthetic insulation whereas the Thorium uses natural down. Regards, Harry.

[@TS-rw2fh]

Will the synthetic high loft filling compress overtime and stay compressed like down does? I do alot of driving and don't what the back to go flat and stay flat like down jackets do.

[@trekitt]

Synthetic insulation will resist compression better than down. It's still a good idea to keep it unstuffed if you can, but it'll definitely be better. Harry

[@philratton]

Hi, I've been looking for a warm synthetic jacket for mountaineering. In your opinion which would be the warmest, Montane Spitifire, Mountain Equipment Citadel or BD Belay Parka? Or something else?

[@trekitt]

Can't go far wrong with the Citadel. Mountain Equipment make some of the finest insulation available, and that particular jacket is the choice of several members of staff here for cold weather static use.

[@VevoV]

Hi Paul, I recently bought this jacket on a different website and it says primaloft insulated instead of cirrus insulation, do you know anything about this?

[@trekitt]

It may well have Primaloft as Rab are slowly introducing branded insulation into their range for Spring/Summer and have already released some product. The performance is virtually identical to Cirrus and there would be no tangible difference between a Cirrus and a Primaloft filled jacket.

[@martinwalsh370]

What would you recommend between the Rab Nebula Pro Microlight Alpine and ME Senja

[@trekitt]

They're all quite different, so it depends how much warmth you need and which insulation type you'd prefer. The Senja is the warmest of the three and uses down, the Nebula sits in the middle and uses synthetic insulation and the Microlight is the lightest and uses down. We've got a good video about which insulation type to pick which should help narrow it down: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXbCiamwisl2a9k

Pretty similarly. The Atom will be a little more weather resistant as it has less stitching (no baffles), but they're both really good options. Try both on if you can. Harry

[@lukelloyd1417]

Would you recommend this jacket over the Rab cirrus Alpine Jacket?

[@trekitt]

The Cirrus Alpine is lighter/less insulated, so it just depends how warm you need to be and what you're doing in it. Harry.

[@vincentashby-smith7146]

Hi, I have the Rab Cirrus jacket as a lighter outer/heavier midweight option. However, I'm interested in the Nebula Pro, will this be significantly warmer than the Cirrus?

I can't do temperature range (we did a video about this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqfYnKl5r9B6jZI ), but I can tell you that the Xenair uses a slightly air-permeable (wind passes through) outer fabric to maximise breathability, whereas the Nebula has a windproof fabric. The Xenair is really focused on active use and the Nebula more of a low/mid intensity piece. Both are quite similar in terms of warmth when there's not much wind.

Hi, The Nebula Pro uses a synthetic filling whilst the Kinder Smock uses a natural down filling. Warmth wise they are very similar, and they have very similar face fabrics making them equally durable. The Nebula however performs significantly better in cold and wet conditions thanks to the Pertex Quantum Pro fabric and the synthetic filling. The fit of the Nebula is slimmer and this makes the filling more effective. The Kinder is a bit of a retro piece with a loose, baggy fit. It is super comfy and warm, but for serious outdoor use, especially in the UK, I'd recommend the Nebula. I hope that helps. Paul.
