Patagonia Men's Hi-Loft Nano Puff Hoody

The Patagonia Men's Hi-Loft Nano Puff Hoody answers the call for more warmth without more weight, delivering a thermally boosted version of a legendary jacket. It leverages a thicker dose of highly compressible 60-g PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Eco, wrapped in a recycled shell, to create a water-resistant, windproof, and incredibly warm layer for cold-weather adventures.

Best Used For

This hoody is ideal as a super-warm mid-layer for skiing or snowboarding in frigid temperatures, or as a standalone outer jacket for cold, dry days of hiking, climbing, and backpacking. Its excellent packability makes it a perfect belay jacket or an emergency layer to keep in your pack for when the weather turns.

Key Features

Features 60-g PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Eco, which is made with 100% postconsumer recycled polyester and retains 98% of its warmth even when wet.

The 100% recycled polyester ripstop shell and lining fabric has a DWR (durable water repellent) finish that effectively sheds moisture.

A brick quilting pattern with horizontal quilt lines on the side panels securely stabilizes the insulation and enhances durability.

The center-front zipper includes an interior storm flap and a zipper garage at the chin for next-to-skin comfort.

Two zippered handwarmer pockets and an internal zippered chest pocket that doubles as a stuffsack with a reinforced carabiner clip-in loop.

The simple, under-the-helmet hood construction provides warmth without unnecessary bulk.

A drawcord-adjustable, drop-tail hem seals out drafts and retains heat.

Why we like it

What sets the Hi-Loft Nano Puff Hoody apart is its ability to provide a noticeable increase in warmth over the standard Nano Puff without a significant penalty in weight or packability. It hits the sweet spot for users who find standard synthetic mid-layers insufficient for their needs but want to avoid the bulk of a true heavyweight parka. The jacket's enhanced loft traps more air, creating a cozier and more protective barrier against the cold, making it a more versatile and capable piece for truly chilly conditions.

Fabric/Material Composition

The shell and lining are constructed from 1.4-oz 30-denier 100% recycled polyester ripstop with a DWR finish. The insulation is 60-g PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Eco 100% postconsumer recycled polyester featuring P.U.R.E. (Produced Using Reduced Emissions) technology.

How the product tends to fit

This product has a regular fit, which is neither slim nor oversized. It is designed to comfortably accommodate a baselayer and a light fleece or mid-layer underneath while allowing for a full range of motion.

Sizing Availability

This hoody is available in Men's sizes ranging from X-Small through XX-Large.

Care Instruction

Machine wash warm on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. To dry, tumble dry on low heat. Adding two or three clean tennis balls to the dryer will help restore the insulation's loft. Do not iron the garment.
