Patagonia  Nano Puff Insulated Jacket - Women's

Very lightweight, warm, comfortable, layers well, washable, and dries quickly, whether in a drier or outdoors. Stashes compactly in a knapsack. I just bought my 2nd one in a different color. (1st one from 2 years ago (gray-green color) is great for camping, but it has a "burn hole" -- my bad -- so I got another for city events.) My only quibble with the 2nd one (silvery-pale lavender color) is that although it is the same size as the first, it is 2 inches shorter, and I prefer the extra length of the older one. I'll keep the new one, but wish it was longer.

I find it humorous that REI now wants my review for which they never delivered. I’ve ordered three winter coats over the past couple of months and every time REI cancels the order without even notifying me! Hence why I’ve ordered 3 coats now. I have not received any of them. All coats have be on sale and when they don’t arrive, I look at my confirmation of order and eventually click on enough things to find out they are canceled. The funny thing is, they still appear online as available. I’ve been an REI member for several years and this is very disappointing. I may have to find a new place to shop.

Love REI, but Patagonia does not stand behind their product. My puffer started to open up along the exterior elbow seems after mild, non technical (classroom teacher, soccer mom, walking my dog etc) use. After losing substantial loft I took it to the Ventura location (where it was purchased) for repair/exchange help. I was turned away with my jacket and told they could possibly patch the elbows with a tape that wouldn’t match, no fill re-inserted & that all puffer jackets are never meant to be worn without a shell. Brands like Patagonia are able to sell at such high price points because consumers believe the products are superior and Patagonia states they back up their products and will repair or exchange- no questions asked. If they cannot follow through on either front then they have just become a high priced brand like Alo with different influencers promoting them.

Typical lightweight “puffy”, although it’s flattened out over the years and is not so puffy anymore. Good colors this season. I returned mine because it’s not as warm as previous years. Also, wondering why they fit so biggggg? They are baggy at the hip. Ugh. It’s not a good look cinching them in at the hem bc then they look so weird and have a big roll at the bottom. Sad they messed with the fit. Once again, a retailer messing with something that was a winner, and downgrading it from what it used to be. Too thin. Too big!

I'm typically a size small or even extra small. I had to go up to a medium for this to fit around my hips. That's fine, except I wanted to use this jacket to hike. (In Patagonia, Chile', of all places!) When I tried it on again at home, I realized that it doesn't have a two-way zipper. That makes the jacket snug around my hips. That is not going to work for hiking/walking. I returned it today. It seems really lightweight and compact. The lack of a two-way zipper was the deal breaker for me.

I typically wear a medium in Patagonia jackets. The medium fits perfectly except when I zip up. It is SO tight around the chest. Based on my experience, and the other review, this jacket isn't designed to fit women who any curves at all. Disappointing since I need a jacket that can keep me warm even if I get caught in a little wet.

Actually expected it to keep me warmer at 54 degrees. Needed to add an extra layer. I feel the coat should have been enough by itself.

Main issue is the “redesigned” fit. The newer Patagonia is much wider around the mid-section & waist, but too narrow around the shoulders and chest. Priced high compared to the same quality in off brands.

I ordered the brisk purple because it looks pink on the website. However, it is not pink at all but very purple.
