Because of their price, I usually buy Patagonia gear when it goes on sale, like winter gear in the spring. I have a nano puff jacket but find that it is not very warm in winter. Does anyone have experience with the warmer Micro Puff Jacket? I am concerned that going from the Nano's 60 wt. to the Micro's 100 wt may make it too warm and bulky. Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks.Feb 27, 2012 at 11:55 pm #1846004I've used the Down Sweater Hoody extensively and it is significantly warmer than the nano puff (15 degrees warmer, with just a T shirt).
I've also used the Arcteryx Atom SV (which uses 100G insulation like the Micropuff), and I would rank it just every so slightly less warm as the Down Sweater, but much more durable.
