Patagonia Nano-Air Light Hybrid Men's Jacket

Dialing in the perfect balance of cold protection and breathable performance is a rare trick. What we want is a jacket you can start with that doesn’t require peeling off 15 minutes in, and then having to find a place to carry it. This jacket provides wind protection and warmth around the core in a remarkably breathable insulation, adding knit panels where we perspire most.
