Rab Khroma Diffuse GTX Mens Shell Jacket Black

Rab Khroma Diffuse GTX Mens Shell Jacket Black

Robust GORE-TEX protection, adaptable ventilation and practical mountain features for demanding days on snow.

The Rab Khroma Diffuse GTX Mens Shell Jacket is designed for skiers who want dependable protection throughout a full mountain day. Its longer cut adds coverage on exposed lifts and snowy descents, while articulated sleeves support natural movement when planting poles, adjusting equipment or carrying skis. The regular fit works with your layering system, making it a versatile choice for resort skiing and trips beyond the lifts.

A durable 70D, three-layer GORE-TEX fabric with an ePE membrane provides waterproof, windproof and breathable protection. The 28,000mm waterproof rating offers reassurance in sustained wet weather, while the uninsulated construction lets you choose the warmth underneath. Open the two-way pit zips to release heat during uphill travel, then close them for the descent.

Adjustments are designed for use in winter conditions, including a helmet-compatible hood with one-handed adjustment, extended cuffs and a mitt-friendly hem. A removable powder skirt helps seal out snow, and the two-way front zip adds flexibility around the lower body. Multiple external pockets and a deep internal dump pocket provide practical storage for essentials, gloves or climbing skins.

FEATURES & TECHNOLOGY

• Three-Layer GORE-TEX Construction: Bonds the durable face fabric, waterproof membrane and protective inner backer into one fabric. This construction suits regular mountain use, combining weather protection with moisture-vapour transfer.
• GORE-TEX ePE Membrane: A thin waterproof barrier blocks rain and snow while allowing moisture vapour to escape. Windproof performance also helps reduce heat loss in cold, exposed conditions.
• Durable 70D Outer: A robust face fabric provides the resilience needed for repeated ski days. Its water-repellent finish helps moisture bead and roll off the surface.
• Adaptable Shell Design: Adjust your base layer and midlayer to suit the temperature and effort involved. This gives you flexibility across cold resort days, spring conditions and more active uphill travel.
• Two-Way Ventilation: Underarm openings let you release excess heat without opening the front of the jacket, helping regulate comfort during strenuous climbs.
• Snow-Sealing Coverage: The longer cut, removable powder skirt, adjustable cuffs and hem help reduce gaps where snow and draughts can enter.
• RECCO Reflector: A passive reflector returns signals from RECCO detectors used by equipped rescue teams. It requires no battery or activation.
