Patagonia nano air review.

First impressions of patagonia s nano air charging the hill my sleeves became slightly damp but never saturated and i remained warm but never hot. The nano air hoody was made to be worn for the entirety of your aerobic start stop alpine missions so you re never slowed down by changing layers. Its objective is to provide adequate warmth for high exertion pursuits in cold weather. It is not generally sufficient as an outer layer and the fit seems to be more difficult than most to dial in.

The patagonia nano air s wide comfort range is one of its defining features. The patagonia nano air light hybrid offers 40 cfm for the front panel and 130 cfm on the back meaning that it s remarkably air permeable and with quite a noticeable difference between the two fabric types. Overall the patagonia nano air light hoody 249 and its accompanying nano air light pants 149. Fair trade certified sewn.

The patagonia nano air hoody was released in july 2014 and was the best performing all purpose active insulation jacket until the arcteryx proton lt hoody came out in 2016. The nano air light is the lightest and most breathable synthetic insulated jacket we tested. When my buddy from patagonia sent a sample pair of their nano air pant it was early march nearly spring but temps were still getting down to minus 10 degrees fahrenheit at night so there would. To this end it performs exceptionally well.

I stopped at the summit to take a 15 minute. Patagonia nano air light hoody i tested it out through a range of temps for this review. Our testers have put both of these jackets through the wringer. Warm stretchy and breathable fullrange insulation dumps excess heat when you re working hard and keeps you warm when you re not.

The patagonia nano air hoody is a well loved and popular active insulating mid layer that thrives in aerobic circumstances where its thin layer of insulation provides just the right amount of warmth while also breathing extremely well.
