The Rab Latok jacket has become the most popular choice for our sponsored athletes when they are undertaking travelling or activities in areas where the weather conditions are appalling. As a result, the jacket has been successfully road tested in the Scottish Highlands in winter, during Polar travel and on winter Alpine climbs and mountain walking.
