The Rab Kangri GTX Jacket is designed for serious hillwalkers and mountain trekkers who demand robust, dependable protection in challenging weather conditions. Ideal for long, wet days on the trail, this technical waterproof shell combines comfort, performance, and sustainability. Constructed from durable 70D, 3-layer GORE-TEX fabric with a fluorocarbon-free ePE membrane, the Kangri GTX delivers outstanding breathability and a hydrostatic head of 28,000mm. The recycled polyamide outer with a PFCecFree DWR treatment offers eco-conscious weather resistance, making it a reliable choice for year-round hiking and backpacking. With a regular fit and a lightweight design at just 438g (size M), it's built to withstand stormy conditions while keeping you comfortable and dry across demanding terrain. GORE-TEX is now a totally PFC free waterproof membrane designed by Gore to be more sustainable and cut out harmful long chain 'forever chemicals' found in normal PTFE waterproof membranes. The ePE membrane is a thinner than older GORE-TEX and GORE-TEX PRO, which results in a softer and more supple feel. It doesn't have the same stiff 'cardboardy' feel as older Gore membranes. The biggest performance difference you are most likely to notice is the DWR treatment. Unfortunately flurocarbons are some of the best, most hydrophobic chemicals out there. Getting rid of them does hit performance so you will notice that the nice 'beading' effect disappears quite quickly. Don't worry your GORE-TEX jacket is still waterproof, but to maintain the beading effect you will need to top up the DWR more regularly Packed with features tailored for mountain use, the Kangri GTX includes a fully adjustable helmet-compatible hood with a wired peak for enhanced visibility in wind and rain. The central YKK AquaGuard zip and two external hand pockets provide weather-resistant storage and protection, while two-way full-venting pit zips offer vital temperature regulation on strenuous ascents. The fleece-lined chin guard adds comfort in harsh conditions, and anti-snag hook-and-loop cuffs ensure a secure, adaptable fit. Designed with performance and practicality in mind, the Kangri GTX is a premium waterproof shell that meets the needs of hikers, hillwalkers, and mountaineers who won't let the weather slow them down.
