The Arc Eco Jacket from RAB is a three-layer waterproof shell designed to keep you dry during outdoor activities. As part of their eco line, it offers essential protection without inner insulation, making it suitable for layering in variable conditions.
This jacket is constructed from 100% recycled polyester and features Pertex Shield Revolve technology, which integrates a waterproof membrane directly into the fabric layers. The regular fit ensures freedom of movement while reducing excess bulk, and the fluorocarbon-free DWR finish helps moisture bead on the surface, extending the life of the fabric. These details mean you get a reliable barrier against rain and wind, all while minimising environmental impact.
The three-layer construction places the waterproof membrane between an outer fabric and an inner lining, improving durability and breathability compared to a single-layer jacket. The DWR, or Durable Water Repellent treatment, causes water to roll off the surface rather than soaking in—a key factor in maintaining breathability and preventing saturation during prolonged use.
