You drop into the subway in sunny SoHo and emerge 20 minutes later in a Harlem downpour. Pull this sophisticated, lightweight, highly compressible trench coat from your purse. It’s made of H2No® Performance Standard lightweight nylon with a waterproof/breathable barrier and Deluge® DWR (durable water repellent) finish. The interior surface channels moisture away from the skin and slides easily over layers. Weather-proofing details include an adjustable, removable hood that secures with hidden snaps, and a full-length snapped placket complete with a 2-way zipper and storm flap. Articulated elbows allow freedom of movement; cuff tabs have 2-position snaps. Princess seaming and removable belt that cinches the waist create a feminine silhouette. Two flapped patch pockets on the front secure with snaps; there’s also a zippered interior mesh pocket. Above-the-knee length.

Material
2.5-layer H2No® Performance Standard shell fabrics are waterproof, windproof, breathable and highly packable. They combine a water-repellent shell fabric with a waterproof barrier and a raised pattern on the inside, instead of the interior scrim used in 3-layer fabrics. The raised pattern makes 2.5-layer fabric light and compressible, while still protecting the waterproof barrier.
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.
