Patagonia Men’s Nano Puff Hoody – Not So Puffy, But Definitely Warm Jacket
By Editor | October 22, 2011
The Nano Puff® Hoody jacket performs very well when cold weather hits without much warning. The Patagonia Nano Puff jacket is windproof and weather-resistant enough to wear to be worn as an insulated jacket in a snowstorm, slim enough to pull on for cool weather rock climb, and warm enough for light hike in the woods.
The Nano Puff jacket features an elasticized hood opening that fits over low-profile helmets , adding much needed warmth for your head. The shell of the Patagonia Nano Puff jacket is made of 00% recycled polyester and it has great wind-blocking and moisture-shedding capabilities that incorporates well into your layering system, and best of all it is not bulky.
The PrimaLoft® One insulation is hydrophobic and highly compressible, it traps heat efficiently even when it is wet. The whole Nano Puff Hoody jacket stuffs into an internal zippered chest pocket that has a carabiner clip-in loop and basically turns into a small pouch, and the hood also stashes away easily.
There are two zippered handwarmer pockets, elasticized cuffs and a dual-adjust drawcord hem to seal out wind and seal in warmth.
Overall the Patagonia Nano Puff Hoody jacket is a great windproof and water-resistant, that is warm, incredibly lightweight, highly compressible and can be worn as insulation or outerwear in cold climates.
