Getting the Rab Axion after watching this. I need something warm that is also a little more durable. I tried the Mountain Equipment Lightline but it was not warm enough for me, hope this one will do the job :)
@ still waiting for it in the post. Got the black one. Was debating whether to pop down to TNF shop but have delayed it pending receipt of this one. Thanks
I wonder if the neutrino pro could be fitted into a 30 liter backpack on a day hiking. Should I get a bigger pack for carrying this heavy jacket? thanks.
Hi Warmth wise they will all be similar, the Neutrino uses higher Fill Power down, so there is less down making the jacket lighter and pack smaller for the same warmth.
@@tauntonleisure yep I had a look cheers👍I'm not a big hiker but looking to get the Rab Electron or the Glaceon for a ski trip. Does one have a shorter collar? Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍
Hi, The Electrion pro isn't as warm as the Neutrino Pro and from memory December can see temperature's of -20c for Kilimanjaro so My suggestion would be the Neutrino Pro
Hi, If I wanted one of the jackets to walk around Stockholm, Helsinki and other colder mountain areas; plus be able to use it on multiway backpacking trips (not a climber). Between the Neutrino Pro, Axion, Mythic Ultra or Electron Pro, which would you recommend? I have the positron, but it's meant for very cold situations. :) Thoughts? Any others you like? Zero G? Mythic Alpine?
@@mistermonsterr For the tempratures mentioned above you would be looking at the following jackets. RAB Neutrino Pro Down or RAB Mythic Ultra.

This jacket is really good 👍. I love watching videos on different designs and techniques to make warmer jackets. I buy EDDIE Bauer because they are really good for the price 😊and there are the original goose down .
Great video⚡️thanks a lot🙏🏼there is a huge discount on a website in my region for the axion. I wanted to but it for daily city use. However, I’m not sure how Rab fits. I’m 1m86cm tall for ca. 75Kg. I usually have L jackets here in EU, and layer with sweaters/jumpers. Would you recommend me an M or L? Thanks

The videos we needed, thank you!
THANK YOU! We are glad you liked it!

Warmest jacket I have owned you won't be disappointed
@karlhetherington5100 what is the packing size of this jacket? Is it compact?
Is it warm enough?
Which one is warmer the lightine by mountain equipment or the Rab Axion?
They will be very very similar but I think the Lightline at a pinch due to the Drilite material
Axion pro ok for casual wear just out and about in town?
Yeah it would work well as an out in town layer. Its worth noting that it has now been replaced by the RAB Glacion
@ thanks, that must be why I managed to get one that was reduced to 170
@@Joop175 Yeah some companies will still have a few from before they were discontinued. A great jackets and a shame to see it go!

It will fit into a 30L pack with no issue!
Where does the Positron Pro relate to these.. ?
Morning, Th Positron pro would be a step up again in terms of warmth and would fall into the Very Heavyweight/Expedition category
At last a video about the axion pro, thank you, but is the axion goose feather filled ?
No problem
Which is warmer out of the axion, neutrino and ME lightline? Thanks
Hi Warmth wise they will all be similar, the Neutrino uses higher Fill Power down, so there is less down making the jacket lighter and pack smaller for the same warmth.
Can you do a video about the RAB Glaceon jacket?
Hi, You're in luck we uploaded a video on the Glaceon on Friday. You should be able to find it as our most recent upload
@@tauntonleisure yep I had a look cheers👍I'm not a big hiker but looking to get the Rab Electron or the Glaceon for a ski trip. Does one have a shorter collar?
Any help would be greatly appreciated 👍
Would you recommend the Neutrono pro for a Kilimanjaro climb in December? Or the Electron pro which wasn't covered?
Hi, The Electrion pro isn't as warm as the Neutrino Pro and from memory December can see temperature's of -20c for Kilimanjaro so My suggestion would be the Neutrino Pro
@@tauntonleisure Thank you! I've ordered a Neutrino-
Any reason why the Axion would be more durable than the Neutrino when they both use 20D external and internal?
Hi, yes the down fill is more robust, lower fill power down is not as delicate so can stand up to abuse better.
Is the Axion Pro sold under a different name in the USA?
Not to our knowledge and I cant see any information from RAB suggesting it would be.

Morning, What kind of temperatures are you looking at?
@@tauntonleisure -20ºC and warmer, mostly warmer. I have been eyeing the Mythic Ultra and Mythic Alpine... :) Not sure...
Any updates on what you chose? I’m flying to Stockholm on Sunday and am looking for a suitable jacket. Tack!

@@mistermonsterr Lots of great jackets from Fjällräven and RAB. :) Let me know if you picked one already
This jacket is really good 👍. I love watching videos on different designs and techniques to make warmer jackets. I buy EDDIE Bauer because they are really good for the price 😊and there are the original goose down .
You miss the mark by not including the mythic G, when was this filmed?
At the time of filming, we didn't have access to the Mythic G. If there is enough interest its certainly something we could look at!
Thanks for that!
No problem!
Axion Pro the good one 😀
I agree have all three but the axion is amazing
Brilliant
We hope you found it useful!

Don’t think they would be any use in Queensland.
No you're probably right!
