Rab's expedition gear is built for use in the world’s most extreme environments. They use cutting edge materials and innovative designs, informed by the experiences of their own athletes and explorers.
The Expedition 8000 is Rab's warmest suit, built for the most extreme conditions, whether you're summiting an 8000m peak or crossing the polar ice caps. Filled with 850FP goose down and built with robust and weather resistant Pertex® Quantum Pro outer fabric, this suit has been developed to retain heat in the world’s coldest environments.
The downproof Pertex® Quantum lining and boxwall baffle construction, featuring a differential cut work in synergy to amplify loft, optimising heat retention. Extending into a helmet-compatible hood with a wired peak and adjustable fit, the suit ensures warmth remains trapped while keeping harsh weather elements at bay.
In harsh conditions, this suit becomes a refuge, offering ample space to accommodate bulky layers and meticulously optimised articulation, providing freedom of movement on challenging terrains. Equipped with a five-zipped side vent running from ankle to wrist, you have unparalleled control over air flow, ideal for when the sun makes its appearance. The extended length two-way front zip offers convenience during relief breaks, while multiple pockets, internal adjustable support braces, and mitt-compatible oversized features make this suit perfectly adapted to the demanding requirements of expeditions.
