Nano-Air Light Hybrid Insulated Vest - Women's

Despite the wage gap and countless statistics attempting to tell you otherwise, there's nothing you can't do and the Patagonia Women's Nano-Air Light Hybrid Insulated Vest isn't so different than your go-get-it attitude. Designed for high-octane pursuits like backcountry skiing, trail running, or even bike commuting, the Nano-Air Light Hybrid touts a construction that ensures ample breathability, moisture management, and core warmth when you need it most.

The Nano-Air Light Hybrid continues the legacy of the Nano-Air lineage with its lightweight, durable, and stretchy constitution. However, the main point of differentiation for this vest lay within its airy waffle knit on the sides and back panel. This fabric expedites the release of excess body heat, wicks away the build up of moisture, and dries quickly. In turn, this hybrid design promotes a more comfortable fit and feel during those aerobic, high-output activities. The knit panels feature a Polygiene odor treatment to keep those post-play funks at bay.

Much like its Nano-Air siblings, this vest is equipped with 40g FullRange synthetic insulation, which keeps you warm when wet and is highly pliable to assure unimpeded mobility as you run, pedal, or ski. A DWR treatment safeguards the shell and lining from errant moisture and precipitation, while two welted and zippered hand pockets are compatible with a pack or harness. The stretch binding at the hem and armholes seals in warmth without obstructing your mobility. Ultimately, when you combine the knit panels with the dependable performance of the Nano-Air technology, you're left with a highly breathable (think 40-CFM front panels, and 130-CFM back panels) and adaptive vest for your aerobic pursuits.
