Ultra-light, extremely warm down jacket for alpine adventures, with a small packing size and a helmet-compatible hood.
Patagonia’s M’s Fitz Roy Down Hoodie is designed for demanding alpine expeditions where you need to move fast and every gram counts. On particularly cold days, this packable down jacket is strong: The ultralight Pertex Quantum ripstop nylon shell protects against icy winds, while the water-repellent impregnation allows light precipitation and moisture to roll right off.
Warmth is provided by the Responsible Down Standard-certified down fill, which efficiently retains body heat and compresses down to a small size. You can adjust the helmet-compatible hood with a single pull; the high collar protects your neck from drafts, and the sturdy front zip is lined with an internal wind flap.
Your equipment is within easy reach: The four outside pockets are positioned so you can access them even while wearing a climbing harness, and inside, a large mesh pocket provides space for gloves. When it gets warmer, you can stow the jacket entirely in the left front pocket.
With the Fitz Roy Down Hoodie in your backpack, you’ll brush off frosty temperatures and stay relaxed even at an icy belay station.
