By Editor | September 30, 2009
The Patagonia Stretch Ascent Jacket is made of 2.5 layer stretch woven fabric shell, that is both waterproof and breathable. The Stretch Ascent soft shell will fend off spitting rain or heavy rain, while the combination of pit zips and mesh backed front pockets will help let the hot air escape so you will not sweat too much and keep cool inside the Patagonia jacket.
The Patagonia Stretch Ascent jacket features a single adjustment for the hood, thus making it easy and allow other hand free for other task. The hood provides great protection and allow goo peripheral vision.
Patagonia is an environment friendly company, and the Stretch Ascent jacket is thus made of 100% recycled fabric which can be recycled again through Patagonia’s Common Threads program.
