Rab equipment is in high demand
Sadly, our reputation for high-quality technical kit attracts those who are looking to profit from criminal activity. Weāre seeing more and more fake websites and counterfeit products appear online.
Weāre taking this very seriously and working to prevent illegal, fraudulent sales being made. We seek to take down any websites, adverts, links or sales that we believe to be counterfeit.
https://rab.equipment/ is the official Rab website
Please take care when ordering online, and only use our website or stockists you know are legitimate. A list of our stockists can be found here.Ā We also have a factory outlet near our head office in Derbyshire that sells in-store only.Ā
If you come across a fraudulent website or advert, please let us know.
Contact us before buying from a site if you think it might be counterfeit.
Our team can advise you whether this site is a legitimate stockist or not.

Some of our retailers do choose to sell on Amazon. Please check the seller of the item youāre looking to purchase, before paying, to ensure youāre buying from an authorised stockist.Ā
