From the Scottish Highlands to the Torres del Paine, trekking some of the most beautiful places on earth invariably means wet weather. The new Patagonia Microburst Jacket for Men is a hard shell that offers full waterproof/breathable protection in a pared-down but durable 3-layer package (3.9-oz 100% all-recycled polyester) with a waterproof/breathable H2No barrier and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The 3-way adjustable hood has a laminated brim, and a low-bulk double flap protects the 2-way center-front zipper. Low-profile self-fabric tabs close the cuffs, and a drawcord adjusts the hem. Pocketing: two exterior handwarmers and a generous interior drop-in mesh that's big enough for a map; just in case the rain is so thick, you're walking in circles.
