Product Information

When the barometric pressure gets low, Patagonia's Torrentshell Jacket keeps spirits high - and dry. Its 2.5-layer, 2.6-oz 50-denier 100% nylon ripstop fabric is tough and compressible, and has a waterproof/breathable H2No barrier and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish to resist wet weather. A polymer matrix pattern on the inside slides easily over layers and channels moisture away from skin. Additional weatherproofing features include fully sealed seams; a hood with a built-in foam visor and elasticized sides that fits over caps and beanies; a full-front zip with a hook-and-loop-closure storm flap; a chin guard; micro-adjusting elasticized cuffs and an internal drawcord at the hem to secure the fit. With zippered side handwarmer pockets and one inside drop-in pocket.

Technology

2.5-layer H2No shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable. They combine a water-repellent shell fabric with Patagonia's H2No waterproof barrier and a raised pattern on the inside, instead of the full-coverage interior scrim used in 3-layer fabrics. The raised pattern makes 2.5-layer fabric packages lighter and more compressible while still protecting the waterproof barrier.
