From the perpetual drip of a rain forest trek, to the flash-bang of an afternoon thunderstorm in the mountains, the Torrentshell Jacket is a rainwear jacket built for trekking and hiking in wet conditions.
Tropical rainforests share at least one thing with the Patagonia Ice Cap: wet weather. For trekking and hiking in drenching conditions, Patagonia's Torrentshell provides 2.5-layer waterproof/breathable protection that's durable, lightweight and without frills.
The nylon jacket stuffs into one of two zippered handwarmer pockets (and has a clip-in loop); the hood rolls down, stows away, and has a laminated visor; and the center zipper has exterior and interior storm flaps. With pit zips for added ventilation, a microfleece-lined neck, and a drawcord hem.
Details
Material:
2.5-layer, 2.6-oz 50-denier 100% nylon ripstop with a waterproof/breathable H2No barrier and a Deluge DWR (durable water repellent) finish.
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.
Technology:
H2No
H2No is Patagonia's standard for 100% waterproof and breathable protection in their shell garments. H2No is created by adding a waterproof and breathable laminate or coating to a high performance protective fabric. This fabric package blocks wind and water on the outside while allowing water vapor generated by your body to escape, keeping you warm, dry and comfortable.

It is very easy to manufacture ‘heritage’ and ‘cool’ these days and at Countryside Ski & Climb we make it our business to seek out the genuine from the phoney as great ideas are worth spreading. Inspired by the courier bags the NYC cycle messengers used to use in the 70’s, Rob Honeycutt, a cycle messenger himself in 1989 San Francisco, took the leap to start manufacturing his own bags in a backstreet garage.
Much like the heartwarming arrival of blossom on trees and nodding daffodils at this time of year, Royal Robbins always heralds the arrival of spring at Countryside Ski & Climb! We have been proud to offer Royal Robbins for over 15 years now and the brand has always stayed true to its heritage.
