Rab Momentum Jacket - Women's - 2010 BCS
Available Colors / Styles
Detail Views
Rab stripped the full-featured technical hard shell jacket back to the basic essentials to create the Women's Momentum Jacket. The Momentum gives you all the protection you need for the nastiest weather conditions on Earth at a shockingly lightweight 11 ounces. Three-layer eVent fabric with water-resistant zippers take care of any blizzards or downpours that you run into during your adventure, and a fully adjustable hood and hook-and-loop cuff adjustments give you a custom fit for comfort and maximum weather-proofing.
Bottom Line: Packable armor.

Way too big and baggy for vertical ice. Zippers don't work well with gloves on. Kept me dry, but sizing is odd.
Great Jacket

So I have been loving this jacket for a few months now. Living in Bavaria, I have the great opportunity to ski, mountaineer, and bike just outside my door. This jacket has held up to all I have put it through. I bought a snall (I usually wear a xs or small at 5' 4'', 115) with the intent of using this as an outer layer. It runs a bit large, but for the intended purpose it works great. It is wicked waterproof. The hood is large enough to fit a helmet underneath, but has great bungees that allow it to be tightened to fit just about anyone. the hood also has a wire type brim that you can form to keep the rain or snow out of your face. The jacket vents well. The only problem I have had is that the zipper tends to catch on the fabric, hence the 4 star instead of 5 star rating. I really do love the pockets, as they don't get obscured by the hip belt on most packs. I would buy again in a heart beat, even at full price.
The REAL DEAL

I bike to work, I walk in the rain, I hike in the mountains during inclement weather. I sweat a good amount doing all of the above. This is the first jacket I can wear for all my favorite outdoor activities where I am not drenched from the inside by my own sweat. Even with a pack on, I am bone dry! Love the higher pockets, they are perfect when wearing a pack. The only improvement I would make is adding more reflective piping for higher visibility at night. I also find trying to adjust the tightness of the hood awkward when its below freezing and I am wearing windproof bulky gloves on... but I am still in search of the perfect gloves so maybe this will improve in the future. Whats even more terrific about eVent material is you wash it like regular laundry!
Change me.
