Lightweight, compressible, earth-friendly core warmth that works as a soft midlayer or wind-resistant shell.
Be good to your core. This high-loft vest provides such ultralight, compressible warmth, you won?t think twice about throwing it in your pack for extra insulation against chilled weather. Its durable, high-quality synthetic insulation traps heat (even when wet), whether worn under a shell or layered over a top, and the polyester shell blocks wind and resists snow. It just got more earth-friendly, too: We now make the entire garment with recycled polyester content. An interior zippered chest pocket doubles as a stuff sack (with a carabiner clip-in loop), invisible zips close the two handwarmer pockets, and the main zipper is DWR (durable water repellent) coated. Off-the-shoulder seams are comfortable under shoulder straps, and a regular fit accommodates thick underlayers.
patagonia is bullet-proof
Size is just right, I have worn the puff vest every Pennsylvania fall day since i got it. Perfect!
Great Vest
I have the micropuff jacket and wear a size medium, but a medium in the vest was too small. Other than this, it's a great piece of gear. I love that it has a adjustable waist ripcord (the jacket doesn't)
Excellent build and comfort
The patagonia micro puff vest is light and can be easily packed without taking much space. Yet it is warm enough to wear in Texas winter and not too warm for a chilly spring or fall night.
