Grandes Jorasses, Dhaulagiri, Fitz Roy. For serious mixed climbing, Patagonias alpine ambassadors wanted a pared-down pullover that pairs storm-level protection with unprecedented breathability. So, the designers teamed with Polartec to deliver a soft-shell breakthrough. Power Shield Pro fabric fills the gap between traditional hard & soft shells, offering unprecedented breathability, protection from wind, & waterproofness. It has a pliable feel, slides easily over layers, & is durable enough to withstand big-route abuse. It has two water-resistant zippered chest pockets placed to avoid a harness or pack, low-profile cuff closures & Touch Point System embedded cord locks in the hood & hem for quick adjustment. The helmet-compatible, 2-way-adjustable hood with laminated visor provides optimal visibility in bad conditions. Full-reach gusseted underarm panels allow overhead mobility.
