The Rab Force Hoody is a technical, lightweight layer engineered for high-output mountain activities where sun protection and moisture management are paramount. Whether you are tackling a breezy ridge line on a cool morning or navigating high-altitude exposure under a punishing sun, this hoody excels as a versatile performance piece. Constructed from 125gsm Dryflo Solar double jersey fabric, it provides a reliable UPF 40+ barrier against harmful UV rays while remaining exceptionally breathable. The 100% polyester knit is designed to pull moisture away from the skin rapidly, keeping you dry during intense ascents. Cut with a regular fit, it comfortably accommodates base layers or sits easily under a technical shell, making it a year-round staple for climbers, hikers, and alpine runners alike.

The close-fitting hood is paired with a high collar, providing comprehensive coverage for the neck and head without restricting your field of vision. To ensure long-distance comfort, Rab has utilised overlocked, low-profile seams that eliminate chafing when worn under a heavy pack. For those cooler transitions or high-speed descents, hidden stretch thumb loops keep the sleeves securely in place and provide extra hand coverage. Weighing in at a mere 187g, this hoody packs down small, while the integrated odour control treatment ensures it remains fresh during multi-day expeditions. It is a refined, low-bulk solution for anyone needing consistent protection and comfort in shifting mountain environments.
