Patagonia Nano Puff Men's Jacket

A modern classic, the Patagonia Nano Puff Men's Jacket is the slim synthetic puffy that has earned a permanent spot in ski bags everywhere. It is warm, windproof and water-resistant, with a compressible build that stuffs into its own pocket when you do not need it.

Why we like it:

The standout is the synthetic fill, which keeps insulating even when it gets damp, unlike down that clumps and quits once wet.

Features and Functions:

The jacket's fill is 60 gram PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Eco, a warm, packable synthetic made from postconsumer recycled polyester with lower-emission P.U.R.E. technology, wrapped in a wind- and water-resistant recycled polyester ripstop shell with a durable water repellent finish. Zippered handwarmer pockets, an internal chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sack, elastic cuffs and a drawcord hem block drafts, and the build is Fair Trade Certified.

Fit and Sizing:

Cut trim and slightly streamlined for layering, it wears true to size and slips easily under a shell.

Bottom Line:

It is best as a packable midlayer or a light standalone jacket for cold resort days and everything off the mountain. Perfect for skiers who want reliable warmth that packs down small.
