Customer Reviews for the Stretch Element Patagonia Men's Jacket

JYD11 - December 29, 2010

Bombproof Jacket!
This jacket is made as well or better than most heavy duty waterproof shells. In quality I would compare it to an Arcteryx with nothing else above it. The fit is true to size but it is a slim fit made to have little extra bulk. I can layer my R3 under it but that would be about all. The green color is sick, extremely bright and the contrasting zippers add style. One special note is the new zipper on the center front is awesome, glides freely unlike most waterproof zippers. I liked this jacket so much I bought one for my brother as well.
