      Rab Summer Clothing 2013 - REVIEW

      Rab Summer Clothing 2013 Here is the review of all the Rab gear you can win in this months Summer Stoke Comp and also where you will find the answer to this months questions to win said gear. Give this review a read over here and then enter your answer to be eligable to win a complete Rab set-up for him or for her by entering over here.


      Here's the start of the review to get you going:

      Some of Rab's new and updated product for the summer includes the Aeon Tee, Men's Vertex Short and Pant, Women's Helix Capri and Pant, the Men's Boreas Pull-On and Women's Aurora Pull-On. All are ideally suited for most spring/summer/fall adventures, however, the tees and pull ons in particular could also be used for spring backcountry skiing and/or mountaineering as well as touring baselayers all-year round.


      We have been reviewing Rab gear for the last three years now and the gear that they manufacture has consistantly demonstrated quality and durability. The bombproof Latok Hardshell still looks great and performs after two solid seasons and the Exodus Soft Shell Pant is still my go-to touring pant. Last year we tested the waters with some of Rab's summer or 'off-season' clothing which also turned out to be keepers.

      Keep on reading over here.

      Well I was the lucky winner of the Rab Summer Stoke contest and now that I've received my gear (Aeon Tee, Men's Vertex Short and Pant, Men's Boreas Pull-On) I can start writing about my experience(s) with each item. Thanks to the warm weather we had in the Northeast this past weekend, I got to put the Rab Vertex Shorts and Aeo Tee to work first.
      The Vertex Shorts with their Matrix SWS fabric were perfect for a lake kayaking adventure. I went out in an open cockpit boat and naturally that drips water into the cockpit from time to time, but any water that landed on my Vertex shorts simply rolled right off and never even came close to threatening to make me wet!

      I really hope the water-proofness of these shorts lasts a long time because I plan to wear them a lot. The fit was perfect, I like the double snap waistband and the zip pockets too. 
      After the kayak I went on a short hike and was impressed again with the cut and light weight fabric. Same for the Aeo Tee - light, dry, and most comfortable. Even though we are at the end of summer stoke, I'll be waering my Rab gear as much as possible! Thanks again Rab and Backcountry Skiing Canada for the prize pack. I'll check in again later when I put the pants and pull-over through their paces...
