For catching air in the halfpipe or committing to the fall line, the insulated Patagonia Boy's Puff Rider Jacket has a motion-inspired design and a durable fabric with weatherproof reinforcements. Highly compressible and warm when wet, the lightweight 200-g Quallofil insulation moves easily with the motions of skiing and boarding. The tough shell is made from soft polyester ripstop treated with a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish for storm protection. It has waterproof 2-layer polyester reinforcements at the cuffs, elbows, side panels and hem to withstand abrasion and to prevent wet-through. Inside, a slick polyester lining manages moisture and glides smoothly over layers. The fleece-lined collar and chin flap eliminate zipper rub; elastic cuffs, a mini-powder skirt and an integrated bottom hem drawcord provide a tight seal against outside elements. The insulated handwarmer pockets have reflective zipper pulls; there's an internal drop-in pocket and a hidden, zippered chest pocket with interior cable routing. Articulated sleeves have a built-in "grow-fit" feature for an additional two inches of growing room. Snap loops at the waist attach to Patagonia's Kids' Snow Bum Pants, and a hand-me-down ID label inside keeps track of owners. With an adjustable hood. Recyclable through the Common Threads Recycling Program.

Great Coat
This coat is attractive, warm and practical. My son is tall and slim (usually wears 10/12) and the L fits him great and he should be able to wear it next year. The color is like a military green and goes well with everything. We are Patagonia converts, our entire family has them now!
