Men S Nano Puff Jacket Review

Mega classic durable and stylish.

Men s nano puff jacket review.

With a layer or two underneath it it s good down to the 30 s and with a t shirt or base layer it s not hot or clammy as some have experienced into the 50 s. Because it s thin it layers well under shells and winter coats. It is simple layers well and packs into its own pocket. However many of its newer competitors are a bit lighter and warmer.

Aside from small changes in baffling design under the arms for a more women s specific fit and different colorways the jackets essentially are the same. I have so many patagonia jackets that when i was looking for a lighter insulated jacket i tried to find one that wasn t patagonia. It s light warm and fits well. This fall however i ve found myself grabbing the nano puff almost every day.

The patagonia nano puff hoody is to insulated jackets what the north face denali is to fleece. My go to jacket for a number of years has been a marmot softshell that s more of a neoprene type of material. After trying multiple jackets from other brands i came full circle back to the nano puff. It s been around forever and basically started the lightweight synthetic jacket category.
