Patagonia Refugitive Jacket __ REVIEW
We've been wearing the Refugitive jacket from Patagonia all season (and just yesterday, in fact). It's part of Patagonia's new backcountry line and lives up to the category designation. Very lightweight, easily packed, highly breathable and totally weatherproof--all with a little stretch where you need it. We like it.
