The Rab Outpost Vest combines plush Polartec® Shearling Fleece warmth with practical features for outdoor enthusiasts. Matrix™ overlays offer wind protection and durability. Stand-up collar and YKK® zippers provide extra warmth and smooth operation.

Rab says: 

Shearling style, high pile fleece gilet made with Polartec® fabric for keeping warm on mountain adventures, with stretch Matrix™ woven overlays for added protection from wind and pack strap abrasion.

Our Verdict

The Rab Outpost Vest is a versatile layer that combines plush comfort with practical features for outdoor enthusiasts. Made with Polartec® Shearling Fleece, it offers exceptional warmth for its weight, ranging from 411g to 482g depending on size.

Key features include Matrix™ double-weave overlays on high-wear areas, which provide added wind protection and durability against pack straps. The stand-up collar offers extra warmth and wind resistance, while YKK® VISLON® zippers ensure smooth operation in all conditions.

With two large hand pockets and a chest pocket, there's ample storage for essentials. The relaxed fit allows easy layering, and stretch binding at the armholes and hem enhances comfort and fit.

While it may be overkill for ultralight backpacking, this vest excels in cold weather camping, hiking, and everyday outdoor wear. The blend of high-pile fleece cosiness and technical features makes the Outpost Vest a solid choice for those seeking a warm, durable, and functional mid-layer for mountain adventures.
