Patagonia Women's Speed Ascent Jacket:
Routes like Denali's Cassin Ridge demand fitness, skill and all the intangibles of big-mountain alpinism. Patagonia's newest and warmest technical soft shell, the Patagonia Speed Ascent Jacket for Women lets you focus on the ascent. The wind- and water-resistant stretch-woven shell (4-oz 100% all-recycled polyester double weave) moves and protects, while the low-bulk R2® insulation (7.4-oz Polartec® Thermal Pro® polyester that's 40% recycled) warms. The hanging R2 liner is welded to the shell along key seams and won't bunch up; its design optimizes breathability and wicking to keep you dry without robbing heat. Stitch-free seams speed dry time, improve water-resistance, and decrease bulk.
