Patagonia, Patagucci. Mattagonia....

@RobeOfTheMagi what is that model called?

[pechelman]

Maybe the das light hoodie. One of their few jackets with a dual zip

[AdamJ]

I went for a Montane jacket this Fall in favour of a Patagonia. Very similar in terms of style and quality

[RobeOfTheMagi]

@wjw That's right, it's the light version of Patagonia's serious cold temperature DAS belay jacket.

This season the DAS light hoody got updated with internal pockets to stow gloves or a hat away. The two-way zipper is owed to it being a belay jacket, however I don't really use it as such.

My trusty battered Nano Puff got stolen and I replaced it with the DAS light. I'd argue that this jacket can do whatever the Nano Puff can do, but better. It's more wind resistend and warmer. Not really a jacket for high output activities since it's not really breathable. It's funny how light it is for its warmth.

I cannot recommend this jacket enough.

PS: This season's version has also been updated with a waist draw cord. Around town I wear as you can see in the picture. For belaying or just for standing around in the cold, I could even cover my butt by loosening the draw cord.

@RobeOfTheMagi how's the sizing compared to IH on this?

[RobeOfTheMagi]

As a belay jacket it runs rather large. I went for a looser fit. I wear a large but I could also wear a medium for a more fitted look - I am about 180cm and 80kg.

My oldest Patagonia garment I still own, is this work shirt.
A non brushed 6oz flannel.
Bought in the early 90’ direct from the representative.
Made in Portugal and very durable.

Would buy an IHSH with matching pocket patterns in a heartbeat.

Faded old purple baggies and IH-C

@Giles Patagonia Hats
Definitely a story to tell!

[Aetas]

Patagonia Summer Hat

Bought it in 1995.
Still in use.
Why I love it?
Perhaps it is the best Pat Light Hat I ever owned.
The color was in and out several times over this decades.
And yes, I owned some of them, but lost nearly all on several occasions.
Dreamed a lot of a color block one in white, but it never happened to me.

Think mine is circa 1990's too.....Certainly PP (Pre Paula)....

@Giles said in Patagonia, Patagucci. Mattagonia....:

Certainly PP (Pre Paula)....

What should I say…
Most of my Pat stuff is Pre(wife)Patagonia.
(PwP) as you call it Giles !
