A winter midlayer, a summer belay jacket and a shoulder-season stand-alone shell all in one: The nylon ripstop Ultralight Down Shirt delivers not only our lightest-weight insulation but also the greatest comfort range. Premium 800-fill down provides a luxurious feel and pack-to-nothing compressibility. The sewn-through construction, tight channel pattern and just the right amount of down increase versatility for use in more moderate temperatures and diverse activities; wear it over a baselayer for the skin or hike in, then throw a shell over the top and you've got a BTU generator. The slim fit maximizes thermal efficiency while the Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish sheds precipitation.

Material
Down InsulationWe use down insulation in some of our products because of its excellent performance: down has a higher warmth-to-weight ratio than synthetic insulation, and it is also more compressible.
Technology
Deluge® DWR
Patagonia’s proprietary durable water repellent fabric finish, Deluge DWR, lasts substantially longer than standard DWRs. Garments with the Deluge DWR finish have like-new repellency after years of extensive use.
