NANO PUFF JACKET £180
The Nano Puff has had something of a cult following since its launch over 10 years ago. In 2016 Patagonia increased the recycled content. In 2018 it reduced material waste. In 2020 it reduced carbon emissions with P.U.R.E. (Produced Using Reduced Emissions) technology. In fact, Patagonia has been refining the Nano Puff for over a decade; not in the way it looks or performs (the jacket needs no tinkering here), but with supply-chain and product design improvements to reduce the environmental impact of one of its most adored products.
VERDICT The comfort and performance combined with the continuing environmental improvements mark Patagonia and the Nano Puff out as something special.
