Patagonia Men's Hi-Loft Down Sweater

Sooo Comfy

Loved the vest and had to have the sweater. To me, the sweater is a great light jacket and easy to pack. I look for excuses to wear it...maybe a summer trip to Alaska.

Toasty Jacket

A warm jacket indeed. It's much warmer than the Patagonia Down Sweater, but also performs on par with some of the much heavier, bulkier jackets in my wardrobe. Patagonia has always excelled in the ability to pack alot of warmth in a lightweight package. In alot of cases, many down jackets can make you look like the Michelin Man, but this jacket doesn't create that effect at all. It offers a slim fit, but is very toasty and windproof. If you're looking for a good mid-weight jacket that performs exceptionally well in cool to cold conditions - the Hi Loft Jacket is a solid choice.

Much better heavy-down option than the super puffs

I'm writing this review on behalf of my father-in-law who I purchased this for. He's got more outwear in his closets than anyone I know. From the moment he put this one on, we knew it was a winner. The regular down sweater (which is my go-to) is great to always have with you for those nights or mornings that are colder than expected, but in frigid temperatures, without any layers underneath it's just not enough. This hi-loft one, without adding a ton of bulk, gives you all the cold protection you will need, unless you're planning on sleeping outside in the dead of winter. It has a sleek fit as well, so there's no michelin man look. It can also be worn on cool mornings and nights, but it is a bit warmer than the regular down sweater. Definitely your option if you're looking to replace a heavy puff jacket with a slim and streamlined look.

Great Fit

My wife purchased this "sweater" which can be worn under a jacket however it is warm enough to wear as a jacket for temps between 25-35 degrees. It fits great, it's stylish and is very comfortable.
