Why I Like Patagonia Light Smoke Pants

Patagonia Grade VI Jacket (Men's)

Patagonia's Grade VI Jacket delivers waterproof/breathable protection at a light-and-fast weight. The 3-layer fabric glides easily over insulation, and the stitch-free Composite Seam System (CSS) construction minimizes bulk, shaves ounces, and improves wet-weather performance. The Grade VI Jacket also features articulated arms and elbows, coated zippers, anatomically contoured Centaur Cuffs with perforated hook-and-loop wrist closures, long-opening chest pockets that double as heat vents and a helmet-compatible, roll-down, adjustable hood. The clean, athletic cut of Patagonia's Grade VI Jacket allows room for underlayers.

Patagonia Great Divider

The Great Divider by Patagonia is a padded, portable, highly water-resistant storage for anglers, photographers or anyone needing to protect their equipment from outdoor elements.The Great Divider - a tough, soft-sided chest with a foam-padded handle, protects valuable fishing reels, camera lenses or medical gear from the rigors of travel in a wet world. Its critical seams are welded to safeguard your treasures. Made from 840-denier nylon, the bag is double-coated with polyurethane film for waterproof protection even in standing water (up to the zipper). Seams and strap attachments are welded, rather than stitched, to eliminate leakage. The coated exterior provides grip on wet surfaces. Resilient, protective high-density foam gives the bag shape. Inside, foam dividers (with hook-and-loop attachments) can be arranged in any configuration. A translucent floating panel (with zip pockets on both sides) and two removable end pockets make it easy to locate small items. The Divider's light exterior color reflects sun and keeps contents cool. With a removable shoulder strap. Imported.

Patagonia Gritty Pack

The Patagonia Gritty Pack is a lightweight, durable, versatile backpack for fast-and-light alpine ascents and backcountry touring. The Gritty is made with ShiftLayer nylon that has two independent layers to reduce friction and protect against the harsh environment of the alpine world. At only 2lb 3oz, this Patagonia pack is light enough for climbers who count ounces as they pack, and the removable stays cut weight even further. Its reverse-opening lid is easily accessible while hanging from a belay and creates a clean profile to shed snow and water. The Patagonia Gritty pack also has an insulated sleeve for your hydration system to keep water accessible and keep it from freezing. When it's time to bivy, pull out the removable fold-out back panel to insulate your upper body on whatever ledge you come across.

Patagonia Gritty Pack (Fall 2007)

Free Shipping. Patagonia Gritty Pack (Fall 2007) Vertical rock, ice and snow are what the Gritty Pack by Patagonia calls home. It's lightweight and compact but capacious and gear-friendly enough for the two-day alpine-style push. An ingenious strap system down the front panel secures ice tools and crampons, and has accessory lash points for attaching skis, etc. Lightweight, removable aluminum stays help contour and stabilize a heavy load; the removable foam pad may be used as a bivy seat. The differential-cut doubleweave ShiftLayer nylon fabric combines a base layer sewn under tension with a floating top layer to absorb friction and reduce abrasion (in the way that liner socks reduce blisters). A climbing rope can be stowed neatly under the lid. An Autofit harness allows quick adjustments to the stretch-woven, molded foam shoulder straps and split waistbelt (which stabilizes the load over the lower back and hips). Hydration pocket with hidden tunnels to keep tubes out of the way, and compression straps to stabilize the bladder, no matter its volume.
