Patagonia Nano Puff Insulated Jacket — Men’s

The Nano Puff remains an iconic jacket for offering synthetic insulation in a lightweight, packable jacket. It’s suited to true midlayer work in alpine pursuits or on everyday errands. Patagonia’s changes to the jacket have mostly been in making it from more recycled fibers, inside and out, including the 60g PrimaLoft Gold Eco insulation and water-repellent-treated shell.
