A: Patagonia Men's Macro Puff Hoody<br />
We took the technology and successes of our revolutionary Micro Puff Hoody and expanded upon them to create the<br />
Macro Puff® Hoody, an even warmer answer to biting cold. Its ultralight recycled nylon ripstop shell with DWR finish<br />
stands guard against outside elements. The alpine helmet–compatible hood adjusts with a single pull for cocoon-like<br />
warmth without messing with your peripheral vision. Inside, the Hoody features 135-g synthetic, down-like PlumaFill<br />
insulation in the body and 90-g PlumaFill in the sleeves and sides (compared to 65-g overall for the Micro Puff),<br />
wrapping you in deep, water-resistant warmth without weighing you down. PlumaFill replicates the structure of down<br />
for great loft but offers the warm-when-wet benefit of synthetic. We quilt the insulation with a unique, minimal-stitch<br />
construction to stabilize it and maximize loft. The two-way center-front zipper’s storm flap seals out drafts, and a soft<br />
zipper garage at the chin saves your skin. Plenty of pockets sit where you need them, in and out, and the whole toasty<br />
package stuffs down small into a separate stuffsack. Fair Trade Certified sewn. 434g.<br />
RRP $659.99<br />

b: Outdoor Research Refuge<br />
Hooded Jacket<br />
The water-resistant Refuge<br />
Hooded Jacket uses high-loft<br />
VerticalX synthetic insulation<br />
technology for resilient, breathable<br />
performance that will keep you<br />
warm even when wet and so<br />
compressible you can stow the<br />
jacket into its own hand pocket. Its<br />
helmet-compatible hood and an<br />
elastic-drawcord hem allow you to<br />
further seal out the elements.<br />
