Matrix™ fabric
Matrix™ is a family of fabrics developed by Rab. The fabric provides protection from wind and moisture and is not only durable and comfortable, but also breathable. It dries quickly and also has a high UPF protection - perfect for all weather conditions. We've created a range of different weights and constructions to suit different uses and temperatures: from lightweight and single weave, to robust and double weave, to composites for added durability and warmth in harsh, cold conditions.

Material 85% polyamide, 15% elastane
