      I adore this thing, I am a Patagucci down sweater/shirt whore, but IMO, this think has them beat…

      G, how do this compare to the 38 from your POV? That has been high on the hit list, and I'm wondering if I should reconsider, in light of your glowing praise.

      I ask whilst sitting here in my Patagucch Nano Puff…

        The 38 is a different animal.  Bulkier and warmer….

          Do you have a preference between the two, for practical reasons or otherwise?

            No preference.  Sorry I'm not being a lot of help, but I seriously have no preference, they are different animals….

                    Is that because your eyes are so old or are the holes that small?

                          Hey Adam, here is a pic for ya. This is freshly removed, I’m guessing the holes/spots where the patch was removed will dissipate with time. I’m going to cover it with a new patch. The big white spots will still be visible on the outside of the new patch, but I’m not worried. This jacket is way better in person, imo. I could not give a stronger recommendation to go for it. Pm me if you want more pics, I’ll get you whatever you need. @Appfaff

                            Killer! Thanks Clay!  I wonder is a machine wash will help fill the holes… is the shell nylon or is the entire thing Poly?

                              Damn, I'm not sure. It feels the same on the inside and out. It's a soft material and the jacket feels really light weight. I think it will be great in Spring and Fall. Even tho the exterior and lining feel the same, I swear the lining is a little bit different. Little softer and shinier maybe. I will have to defer this question to the experts.

                                    I don't have any pictures on hand, but I wanted to share my 2 cents regarding this jacket.

                                    First of all, it is super duper light. When I say it is a light jacket, I mean this thing weights less than a midweight iron heart flannel. I haven't tested its packability, but it was very easy to make into a makeshift pillow, albeit that the back of my head and neck got a little sweaty.

                                    Secondly, this thing is WARM! Sure, it's not going to stave away hypothermia on a frozen tundra, but it just might be enough to make you sweat during a chilly evening. Perhaps it is just me, but I really need to be cold or for there to be a substantial windchill for me to really need to push the jacket. This thing dominates any chilly night.

                                    In summation: this thing is a steal and buy it now at it's current price. You'll be kicking cold right in the ass for years to come.
