When it comes to going on an adventure, the choice of equipment can be as crucial as the choice of vehicle. It is with this philosophy in mind that I undertook a road trip between Paris and London, behind the wheel of a Tesla, with the RAB Infinity Microlight jacket as my only traveling companion. This article details the product testing of this jacket and how it fitted into the experience of eco-friendly travel.
Design and Comfort
From the first glance, the Infinity Microlight jacket displays a clean, modern design, and promises essential comfort for a long journey. The slim fit and quality finishes are immediately noticeable. Put on for the first time in the parking lot of a supercharger on the outskirts of Paris, it offered appreciable freedom of movement during the various stops and activities.
Performance and Durability
En route to Calais, the varied weather conditions put the jacket to the test. The outer membrane withstood coastal winds, while the down maintained consistent warmth without overheating. The 100% recycled liner demonstrates RAB’s commitment to sustainability, a major asset for consumers concerned regarding their environmental impact.

Travel functionality
On board the Tesla, the thermal comfort of the jacket was remarkable. The vehicle’s interior temperature regulator, combined with the jacket’s insulation, created a pleasant microclimate, avoiding the need to constantly adjust the heating, which might have impacted the car’s range.
Urban and Rural Versatility
London welcomes with its cityscapes, where the jacket has proven to be an ideal urban companion. Lightweight and compact, it adapted effortlessly to exploring the city. The recycled content of the jacket, which amounts to 60%, reinforced the feeling of consistency with the sustainability values advocated by electric vehicle travel.

It combines style, comfort, and performance while aligning with the principles of an eco-conscious lifestyle.

It’s a jacket that doesn’t just follow the traveler, but actively participates in their travel experience.
