The Patagonia Super Alpine jacket is a big-mountain jacket for alpine climbing or ski mountaineering in the worst possible conditions. It's like a suit of armor for adventuresome ascents and descents.

Extremely light but durable 3-layer Gore-Tex® Pro Shell nylon outer shell has key-area reinforcements; a micro-grid interior backer helps optimize breathability
Helmet-compatible, 2-way-adjustable hood with laminated visor optimizes visibility in bad conditions
Front watertight zipper with an internal stormflap keeps the weather at bay while keeping the jacket's weight down; chin guard protects skin from zipper abrasion
Trim, watertight pit zippers offer quick venting options
Gasket Dry Cuffs enhance protection in wet conditions; cuffs have a low-profile closure and pleated gusset
Embedded cordlocks in the hood and hem allow quick adjustment without opening the jacket
Zip handwarmer pockets are positioned for easy access with harnesses and pack straps; includes a small internal zippered chest pocket
Super Alpine jacket is designed with a low-bulk, flat-pleated front that stays close to the body while still allowing the pockets to expand without the need for bulky seams
Regular fit allows airflow and evaporative cooling, and eases layering

Please note: Patagonia products can only be shipped to the U.S. and Japan.

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

Full disclosure, I am a Gore-Tex Mountaintech. This jacket is the absolute best shell I have ever used. It has all the stuff you want: waterproof, windproof, breathable, lightweight. It also has fully adjustable hood, sweet soft wrist gaskets, big pit zips. I am 6'1 190 lbs, and a large fits me perfect; large enough to put layer underneath, or on warmer days just a single layer will treat you well. Bottom line, if you are looking for a solid, well constructed gore-tex shell with all the bells and whistles and the stamp of approval from Patagonia, this is THE jacket.

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

I've used this jacket in some of the most trecherous conditions, and it keeps me comfortable and dry in every situation. The rubber cuffs in the sleeves ensure that no moisture sneaks in, making it awesome when skiing. I get a lot of complements - the jacket wears well. I love the spacious hood and the fact that the water just beads off the material. Fantastic jacket!

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

Talk about a good first impression. Right after I got this jacket I was in the thick of it that was Super Storm/ Hurricane Sandy. In both the rain and the snow that it dumped on us it certainly proved its worth. Hands down my favorite thing about this jacket is the wrist gaskets...what a great addition. The fit is spot on as it is cut athletic but easy to layer underneath as the temps drop. At this point I have been through multiple Gore-tex Shells and this is my favorite so far. Its burly and is taking all the abuse I can give it. As a disclaimer I test products for the Gore company.

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

6.1 215 pounds. i have a large and i can layer under it. this is a serious jacket. the cuffs have a rubbery gasket that has a great seal. the hood is designed with helmet use in mind. good pocket layout(expand for extra stuff). It's proshell so it's tough but still light enough so it packs well. good breathability and the pitzips help regulate heat. I usually stick with arc'teryx because of their great fit for me and of course their quality.This patagonia shell is well worth it.you won't be disappointed to own it.

My New Go To Jacket

3 Season

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

I have found a new go to jacket. I thought the Arc'teryx Beta AR was perfect but this one is even better. This is the perfect 3 season storm shell. It fits over an insulating layer. The pockets are well placed and the pit zips are so easy to use with one hand. The inside pocket works well for holding keys or other small items.

The only other con is that some people might not like the bright colors.

I am 5'11" and 180 lbs and a large provides room for a softshell underneath in the winter without being too large without.

keeps you dry

Comments about Patagonia Super Alpine Jacket - Men's:

The gortex jacket is the best one Patagonia has put out. Sleeves keep everything dry, colors are fantastic! Only need reflection stripes on jacket for the darker fall time. Otherwise, GREAT shell!
