What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: “I reach for the Micro Puff when I want the warmth of a lightweight down midlayer without worrying about moisture. The PlumaFill insulation is ridiculously warm for the weight, and it still keeps me comfortable when conditions get damp. It layers cleanly under shells, stuffs small in a pack, and the under-helmet hood is clutch on alpine starts. It’s one of my favorite pieces for climbing, ski touring, and icy trail days.” We wear the Patagonia Micro Puff Hooded Insulated Jacket when we want maximum warmth and minimum weight on cold days in the mountains. Patagonia’s recycled NetPlus ripstop exterior blocks biting winds on exposed ridgelines, while the ultralight PlumaFill insulation mimics down’s loft without losing heat when snow turns to sleet. It’s the layer we trust for chilly belays, alpine approaches, and dawn patrol tours when every gram matters but comfort can’t be compromised.Minimal-stitch quilting boosts loft and warmth, while the streamlined hood slips easily under a helmet for extra protection when conditions shift. Two zippered handwarmer pockets—one acting as a stuff sack with a reinforced clip-in loop—and internal drop-in pockets keep gloves and snacks close at hand. With elastic bindings sealing out drafts at the hood, cuffs, and hem, this jacket becomes an essential companion for everything from cold-weather climbing to everyday winter wanderings.
