Rab Women's Xenon X Hoody: Editor's Choice Award, Outdoor Gear Lab
"The Rab Xenon (formerly the Rab Xenon X) once again is a shining star amongst insulative jackets on the market. It stands out for its ultra-packable and lightweight construction that offers a high warmth to weight ratio. The continuous shell is windproof, allowing you to climb or hike high while staying protected and warm. The 60-grams of recycled stratus insulation is light and airy, capturing heat while you're in motion. The liners retain the heat well, making it an excellent layer underneath a shell for super cold weather, or an excellent stand-alone jacket during adventures in autumn-like weather. Unfortunately, it's not incredibly breathable, and the fit, while slimmer this year, is still quite boxy. It's our first choice for ultralight missions and everyday wear, given its super light design, and wins this award for the fifth year in a row."

How to measure
- Arm length – Measure arm length from neck to wrist fold along the top of the arm with the arm fully extended.
- Chest – Measure horizontally around the fullest part of the chest.
- Waist - Measure horizontally around the narrowest part of the waist, your natural waist, at the small of the back or where your body bends if you lean to the side.
While all Rab garments are sized to these measurements, you will find that the cut on jackets designed for use in more extreme environments will be slightly more generous in the expectation that these designs will be used with additional/thicker mid-layers. If you plan on using a jacket like this with fewer layers beneath it, please keep this in mind when selecting your size.
Regular Fit for Garments
Designed to be versatile Regular Fit garments are not closely fitted making them ideal for cross-seasonal use and multi-layering. Regular fit garments are contoured, with room for movement.
Slim Fit for Garments
Slim Fit garments are designed to be worn closer to the body or over layers such as baselayers and light mid-layers. Slim fit garments are close fitting for maximum performance when moving dynamically.
Expedition Fit for Garments
Expedition Fit garments are designed to be worn in colder conditions over more layers of clothing than our other fits and are oversized slightly to allow for this.
