British outdoor brand Rab (owned by Equip Outdoor Technologies Ltd.) has received two high-profile product and brand awards related to their Skyline mountain running range. The latest Trail Running UK Awards recognise Rab as “Sustainable Brand of the Year”, and the Windveil Pull-On as “Top of the Year”. This is an endorsement for Rab’s ambitious sustainability strategy to become Net Zero by 2030 and recognition of their Climate Neutral Company status, whilst at the same time refusing to compromise on quality and performance of their kit that is designed to protect in the most adverse mountain conditions.
The TR Gear of the Year Awards conclude the successful launch of Rab’s fully updated SS22 Skyline mountain running range, featuring various award-winning products such as:
• the Women’s Phantom Pull-On Jacket (Women’s Running “Product Award 2022”),
• the Kinetic Ultra Jacket (Outside Magazine “Best for Trail Running”).
