If you’re the type of person who can get away with wearing a color called “Willow Herb Green,” well, we’ve got a fantastic jacket for you.
Patagonia’s Nano Puff Hoody is windproof, water-resistant and will keep you toasty (up to 98% of normal warmth even when wet) — all a given with any of the outdoor brand’s layers. And given the company’s eco-friendly M.O., it’s no surprise that the jacket is made from 55% post-consumer recycled content and wrapped in a 100% recycled polyester ripstop shell.
It’s built to keep your extremities warm: There are two zippered hand-warming pockets along with a zippered internal chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sack (with a reinforced carabiner clip-in loop). That stuff sack is useful, because the lightweight Hoody can compress down a lot more than your average down coat.
As one verified buyer put it: “I’ve been a fan since this piece was first available and have 3. On its own or as a layer. The hoody fit and nonblocking of sight. Great for activity, travel, or a chilly library. In and out of the wash… no problem. Welcome and reliable!”
And cheaper than ever: The aforementioned Herb Green colorway is now $100 off, and available in all sizes except XS.
