Greenland's Tasermiut Fjord and the Patagonia's Chalten Massif are at opposite ends of their hemisphere, but both have mind-bending climbing - and thoroughly drenching storms. The Patagonia Men's Super Pluma Jacket is the light-and-fast alpinist's choice for waterproof/breathable protection. GORE-TEX Pro Shell uses a superlight-yet-durable face fabric with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish and a minimalist micro-grid interior for ultimate breathability. The pressed-pleat torso pockets are streamlined so you can see your feet, while trim, watertight zippers make for clean and easy pit-zips and pocket openings. Underarm gussets keep the jacket down when you raise your arms, and sleek Touch Point System embedded cord locks in the hood and hem allow quick adjustments without opening the jacket. Other details include a helmet-compatible, 2-way adjustable hood with a laminated visor, low-profile cuff closures with a pleated gusset, and a small internal zippered chest pocket.
