Rab says:
When you need premium breathability and waterproofing in a lightweight mountain shell, the dual-fabric construction of our new GORE-TEX® Pro Women’s Muztag GTX Jacket strikes exactly the right balance.
The Women’s updated Muztag GTX Jacket is designed for steep alpine ascents and extreme technical climbs. Built from air-permeable 30D GORE-TEX® Pro Most Breathable with 40D reinforcements, it provides 28,000mm of waterproofing alongside extreme breathability for reliable dryness during high-intensity sport. In addition to an active cut with articulated arms, the jacket also features one-handed drawcord adjustment at the hem and waist, plus deep-venting pit zips for extra ventilation. Internal zipped and mesh pockets are supplemented with four harness-friendly external pockets and the helmet-compatible hood comes with a wired peak, roll-down tab, elevated wind collar and three-way adjustment for a secure, windproof fit.
With the flexibility for unimpeded movement, the breathability for high-energy ascents and the protection for hostile weather, the lightweight, low-bulk Women’s Muztag GTX Jacket is the ultimate shell jacket for extreme alpinists.

Rab's 2020 Womens Muztag Gore-Tex Jacket is designed to take a beating from the elements so you don't have to. This new version uses a combination of Gore-Tex Pro fabric in order to provide a good balance between protection and performance. The solid 40D Pro panels provide serious protection while the areas of 30D fabric allow for greater breathability where it is needed most. The alpine oriented design shows in the climber friendly fit, large chest pockets and fully adjustable hood.
Solid cuffs and hood work brilliantly to keep out the worst of the weather and are supper durable when the jacket sees heavy usage. The helmet compatible hood adjusts fairly easily and although it feels cavernous without a helmet it can still be fitted pretty well. Solid, weather resistant zips provide reliability with the main zip having a large, glove friendly tab for ease of use. There is also a small, secure, stretchy inner pocket and simple stretch mesh drop pocket for additional storage options. Although I've not had the chance to test this in full winter conditions yet it has handled the wind and rain from numerous storms with ease.
