![]() ![]() ![]() This one is our favorite of all the Patagonia pieces we've tested. Sizes: S to XXXL | Materials: Recycled polyester (fabric), 60 grams PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Eco post-consumer polyester (insulation) | Sustainability: Recycled materials, bluesign-certified materials If you're like me, you'll reach for this jacket more than any other one in your closet. For bitter cold days at Mammoth, it was my go-to midlayer. I was comfortable in it, from just below freezing to mildly chilly California evenings. In drizzle and snowfall, it holds up just fine, but beyond that, moisture starts to penetrate, and things can turn nasty. As for water resistance, well, it's resistant, but certainly not waterproof. In High Sierra conditions, the Nano Puff had excellent wind protection in downright cold and nasty alpine winds. The Nano Puff provides adequate warmth well into temps in the 30s, but under that, you may want a few layers or something thicker like Patagonia's DAS Hoody (see below). The shell is made with a DWR-treated lightweight 100 percent recycled polyester ripstop and is said to be windproof and water-resistant. The medium-weight 60-g PrimaLoft Gold Insulation is perfect as a standalone jacket in shoulder season or as a mid-layer under a hardshell for days on the snow. It's almost an all-season coat for the Western US. Simply put, its versatility and usability are second to none. The Nano Puff is Patagonia's number-one selling jacket, and rightfully so. ![]()
