A shelter for the high-country escape artist, our Refugitive Jacket uses lightweight and stretchy 3-layer GORE-TEX fabric with GORE C-KNIT backer technology in a fully featured, packable hard shell.
Features
A hybrid design for the optimal balance of stretch and lightweight; durably waterproof and windproof 3-layer GORE?TEX fabrics with GORE C-KNIT backer technology are softer, lighter and more breathable than regular 3-layer GORE?TEX fabrics
Specially engineered Optimal Visibility Hood adjusts with single-pull Cohaesive embedded cord-lock system to fit equally well over all helmet types or a bare head
Two high handwarmer pockets with watertight zippers stay clear of a harness or pack waistbelt; welted exterior left-chest pocket, interior left-chest pocket and interior stretch catch-all pocket
Watertight 2-way pit zips for venting
Elasticized strap at low back connects to any Patagonia Snow pants and select Alpine pants to prevent jacket from riding up
Cohaesive embedded cord-lock system has two contact points at hem for intuitive one-handed operation
Concealed RECCO reflector
Made for the high-country escape artist, our Refugitive Jacket combines full waterproof/breathable protection with stretch and light weight for steep climbs and serious descents. The hybrid 3-layer GORE-TEX construction uses a slightly more robust, stretchy fabric along the upper back, shoulders and the backsides of the arms for unimpaired mobility. The Optimal Visibility Hood adjusts via an embedded single-pull cord-lock system and fits over ski and climbing helmets alike, while 2-way watertight pit zips let you dump heat on lung-busting ascents. Pockets include two above-harness-line handwarmers with watertight zippers; interior and exterior zippered left-chest pockets; and a right-side interior, stretch catch-all for spare gloves or skins. The hem cinches with embedded cord locks, and an elasticized strap at the lower back connects to any Patagonia Snow pants (and select Alpine pants) for deep-powder days. With a concealed RECCO reflector.
