We tested this coat. Is it worth it?

Klav Gav has begun marketing the insulated and versatile coat from British company Rab. We tried it out and came back with conclusions.

Winter has arrived, along with the appropriate gear. "Klav Gav" is a well-known company that has been producing bags since the early 80s and is now one of the leading providers in the field of bags, backpacks, and suitcases. 

Among the products offered by Klav Gav this winter are warm clothing, such as Polartec thermal shirts, a thermal clothing set manufactured by the company, an Aldo coat from Klav Gav, and more. 

Catching the eye is a insulated, versatile, durable, and flexible coat from the esteemed British company, RAB, which was established symbolically in the same year as Klav Gav – 1981. 

The CIRRUS FLEX coat is a garment that serves as both an outer coat and a warm mid-layer. It is particularly versatile, offering durability, ventilation, and freedom of movement. It is filled with lightweight insulation that balances and regulates temperature, so that it does not overheat during movement or cool down when still. The coat is designed for movement, with excellent flexibility and improved ventilation due to its pleated lining. CIRRUS FLEX is made from durable, water repellent outer and inner fabrics that dry quickly. The left pocket of the coat also serves as a storage bag, allowing the coat to be conveniently packed while on the move. Elastic waistbands provide perfect fit and prevent cold from entering.

What did we think?

Indeed, the first association with this type of jacket is that of generals in the military, and maybe at first you will feel like champions. But you will get used to it. The jacket is very, very comfortable and protects against the wind. It is lightweight, pleasant, and suitable for the recent (and not insignificant) cooling weather. 

There is good reason to believe that it will also protect you in more extreme weather conditions. One of the recurring problems with jackets is their bulkiness and heaviness. Often they are not pleasant for movement. But this is a jacket that you will not feel on your body, and that is a huge advantage. 

As for the price - it is 529 shekels, a sum that is not affordable for everyone. Is it worth the money? In terms of quality, definitely, but if it is suitable for every budget, it is less so. Color: petrol blue. Sizes: S-XXL, price: 529 shekels, available on the Easyback website and in stores.
