A casual looking technical vest with an antibacterial Polygiene finish ideal for summer mountain adventures and perfect for layering over a sports bra. Offset low bulk seams add strength and comfort when carrying a pack.
Rab says:
The Women’s Wisp Vest is a highly ventilated, super lightweight technical vest, ideal for layering over a sports bra during humid, fast-paced summer hikes. The recycled soft-touch polyester fabric uses a combination of densely woven and open knit sections for a semi-opaque style and cool, consistent airflow. In addition to offset low-bulk seams for extra strength and comfort when carrying a pack, the Wisp Vest features a flattering racer-cut back for unrestricted freedom of movement, plus a Polygiene® silver ion treatment for reliable long-term freshness.
Our Verdict
Rab's Womens Wisp Vest is made with 95% recycled polyester. It is a super comfortable yet technical tee that is breathable, high wicking and quick drying. The soft, silky feel of the fabric makes it comfortable even when you have been pushing yourself and sweating for a while. The relaxed cut makes it feel more airy and breathable which is ideal when the conditions are warm or your activities are more intense.
Although the simple design looks clean and means this top can easily be used as a casual piece it is made to be worn for outdoor activities. The flat seams and open shoulder straps make it comfortable and increase freedom of movement significantly. There's also the inclusion of Polygiene which stops this top from smelling too bad after exercise, keeping it fresh to wear.
