As we touched on above, down wins out in warmth and loft, but synthetic insulation breathes better, dries quicker, and is cheaper. One of our favorite synthetic-insulated vests on the market is the Nano Puff from Patagonia, which also comes in a very popular full jacket version (as do most other vests on this list). This Nano Puff Vest is sleek and versatile: It’s decently warm, light, packs down small, and looks the part for both casual and active use. It’s also less expensive than a comparable down vest and noticeably lower-profile.

What are the downsides of the Patagonia Nano Puff Vest? The PrimaLoft Gold Eco insulation is pretty darn warm but not to the same degree as down, so this vest isn’t built for frigid conditions (it’s ideal for fall, spring, and as a layering piece). And the current model is slimmer than past versions, so you may want to consider sizing up if you’re on the border or plan on wearing the vest over bulky layers. But for an active vest with tons of everyday appeal, you can’t beat the Nano Puff.See the Men's Patagonia Nano Puff  See the Women's Patagonia Nano Puff

 I'm doing some climb in with some kids coming up from. Mount Vernon in a bit I'm actually waiting for them now and excited to shoot this video and supposedly 80 degrees by the time lunch time comes around, so it's a good pass you wear this in the morning I set up the climbing equipment in the back that's wearing this in the woods and for the rest of the day when it gets warm, this thing stops right into the chest pocket there and I'm not wearing my climbing harness but if I was I would clip this to my climbing harness. So after my students leave and I'm braking on the climbing site and it's after dark. whatever

 I could just put this back on or whatever so it has a little Clippy thing if you clip it to your harness. I'm not wearing my climbing harness now but comes out real easy. Just like that it's super lightweight. Two things: Don't even wait more than a few ounces so it's really lightweight

 It's not bulky at all and it's really, really warm. Today it's like 60 about 50 degrees in the morning. I'm doing some climb in with some kids coming up from.

 I know best like best items like these, you get like the big armpit hole where air or a cold air could get in. But what I like about this as well is that it's thin enough to layer underneath something that's bigger and it doesn't. It's not bulky at all and it's really, really warm. Today it's like 60 about 50 degrees in the morning

Patagonia Nano Puff Vest Reviewed!

*Comfort: Good stretch. The cuffs are nicely designed to form a tight seal while allowing some extra fabric to hang over, which adds to the casual style. 

*Warmth and range: With a midweight long sleeve shirt underneath, I'm comfortable in the high 30s/lower 40s (F), and with a fleece underneath, you can go much lower. I live in northern New England and was able to forgo my heavy winter coat for this combination for most of last winter. On the flip side, with a t-shirt underneath, I'm comfortable in the low 60s (F).

cloth, Polartec Alpha, Runweight Merino), and adding the finishing features (two way zips, pit zips, pockets) to create something that is truly distinct and can’t be found anywhere else. It’s pieces like this and the Shelter from the Storm that keep me invested in the brand and motivates me to write a nearly 3000-word long manifesto about some jacket that I like to wear for internet randos to read.

 I had planned to stay the weekend in SF and was already going to fly there that day, but I would be needed in Boston next Tuesday and of course I didn’t have anything packed for the cold...

Putting it on for the first time in months last fall when temperatures finally reached the 50s and 60s after a hot and humid Georgia summer felt like coming home to a warm hug. And that’s what really stands out to me most with the jacket: the

Of course all this tactile comfort would be a moot point if the jacket was too warm/not warm enough to comfortably wear in a variety of situations, which is where the zips come in (you can see all the zips in action [in this clip here]([URL REMOVED] All the zips coming together make the normally very warm jacket surprisingly comfortable in a wide temperature range, which is essential for my use cases.

 Two zippered hand warmer pockets keep small goods close at hand, and the internal zippered chest pocket doubles as a stuff sack with a reinforced carabiner loop. The draw cord adjustable drop tail hem seals in warmth. The nanopuff vest is fair Trade certified, sewn and certifiably your new favorite for nighttime bouldering sessions, springtime ski tours, and anytime you need windproof, packable warmth even when wet.

[music] The nanopuff vest is a windproof, water-resistant and packable core warmer for shoulder season at the crag or in the backcountry. The shell is made from 100 recycled polyester ripstop with a durable water repellent finish that glides smoothly over and under layers. The signature brick quilting pattern and horizontal quilt lines on the sides stabilize the primaloft gold insulation Eco, a 100 post-consumer recycled polyester that is incredibly lightweight, highly compressible, and produced using reduced emissions. The center front zipper has a moisture-wicking interior, storm flap, and a zipper garage at the chin for next to skin comfort when things get cold or drizzly

What are your experiences with the durability of this jacket? I care for the things I own but I don’t believe I should have to baby the jacket for the price of it.

The problem - I question the durability of the outer shell. I’ve already got abrasions on the pockets and at the bottom of the jacket somehow the edge has worn through and some fill is coming out.

 I also down graded one star for lightweightedness. I have had nano puff's in past and they had more volume.

I'm 5' 10" and weigh 175.  I have had loads of Patagonia jackets and vests. This is the first one I am returning for size.  Medium was tight

Nice look but runs small

 So We do have a little bit of elasticity on the arm ports there. They are just going to help to seal in that warm air and keep the drafts out while still allowing you to move very freely. And We do have a draw cord hem as well,, so on the right hand side we have got a little draw cord toggle here. And You can cinch that hem down so the vest won’t ride up on you if you are climbing, if you are backpacking or anything like that, so nice fit enhancements there

 It is the lightest weight and most compressible insulation of-fered by Primaloft, so it keeps you super warm without weighing you down. To Stabilize that insulation. We have got Patagonia’s iconic brick quilting, so the Nano Puff here has really good insulation and it stays throughout the entire piece, so it keeps you nice and toasty warm. Some Of the other features on the vest include two hand pockets, so we have got two zippered hand warmer pockets, pretty sizable pockets, you can store some items in or just keep your hands warm if you are not wearing gloves

The Rab Muztag GTX is a winter wonder gaiter that offers an excellent balance between durability and comfort. At under 8 ounces for the pair, this model will keep your feet warm and dry without weighing you down on the trail. The Muztag is fully waterproof and sits just below the knee, meaning that they are prime for plunging through deep snow. The instep strap is wide, thick, and durable, and it is even ostensibly replaceable since it is held in place by velcro instead of being sewn in. The bootlace hook is also super secure, and all-in-all, this pair is more comfortable than any other longer-length model we tested. 
The primary drawbacks of the Muztag are related to long-term durability. Though it is made for heavy use, the fabric is not quite as thick as other long-length options in this review. The boot hook is plastic, meaning that it could crack if you inadvertently step on it at camp. Another comparatively minor complaint is that these gaiters crinkle like paper which can be somewhat distracting if you are trying to enjoy nature's silence. But all things considered, if we were going on a hike after a fresh snowstorm, this is the pair that we would reach for first.
