A gusseted crotch and articulated knees provide easy mobility, and the integrated belt makes it easy to loosen or tighten the structured waistband as it sits comfortably under a pack’s waistbelt. There’s a single zippered thigh pocket for a map or phone, and the hand pockets are lined with mesh to increase breathability and moisture wicking properties.

Patagonia Nano Puff Insulated Vest – Women’s

When worn on its own or under a shell, the Patagonia Women’s Nano Puff Insulated Vest provides lightweight, compressible, and wind-resistant insulation for your cool-weather romps.

Now, because of its synthetic insulation and moderate warmth-to-weight ratio, Nano Puff caters to a variety of activities, ranging from cold-weather trail runs to blustery days on the skill hill. A hardy, wind-resistant ripstop exterior deters grabby tree branches on the trail, and the DWR treatment is designed to handle light drizzle. A zipper garage protects your chin from chafing, and the brick quilting pattern prevents the insulation from settling and creating cold zones on your body. An internal chest pocket doubles as a self-stuff sack so you can easy store the Puff in your tote bag or daypack, while the two zippered hand pockets keep necessities close by.

Arc’teryx also treated the Tenquille with a DWR water-resistant coating to shed moisture. There are plenty of thoughtful touches, too, like the low-profile hood that helps keep wind off your face, gusseted cuffs to help seal out cold drafts, and a hem drawcord that makes sure sogginess doesn’t sneak up your back and down your britches.
