British outdoor brand Rab (owned by Equip Outdoor Technologies) has received two awards related to its Skyline mountain running range. The latest Trail Running UK Awards recognise Rab as ‘Sustainable Brand of the Year’, and the brand’s Windveil Pull-On as ‘Top of the Year’.
This is seen by the company as an endorsement for Rab’s sustainability strategy to become net zero by 2030 alongside its Climate Neutral Company status.
Rab’s Skyline mountain running range also features other award-winning products such as: the Women’s Phantom Pull-On Jacket (Women’s Running ‘Product Award 2022’), and the Kinetic Ultra Jacket (Outside Magazine ‘Best for Trail Running’).
Andy Schimeck, Equip Global Sales Director, said “The launch of our updated Skyline range this summer has been a great success across all markets and we feel honoured that this has also been recognised by some prestigious industry and media awards.
“We’re already excited to further push the boundaries of developing highly technical equipment and kit for all mountain-related activities whilst at the same time continuing our journey to reach net zero by 2030.”
For autumn/fall/winter 22, Rab has further expanded the Skyline collection and introduced new pieces, featuring Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper technology.

The new Stormveil Windstopper Jacket is billed as ‘the ultimate wind breaker for wild winter runs’. With an RRP of £150, body mapped construction with Gore-Tex Infinium Windstopper and breathable Matrix softshell, the Stormveil… ‘protects, deflects, and keeps runners comfortable in wild weather.’.
